Tl* the contact owns a 2007 keystone everest rv. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35 mph, the driver side front tire suddenly blew. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic.
I've had two blowouts,the first wasn't that bad but the second one did some damage on the side of the camper. I contacted the tire manufacturer and was told that because the tires were five years old that they couldn't or should I say wouldn't do anything about it.

While the vehicle was parked the contact noticed the welding on the frame was bent, the cross members were extremely thin and the water holding tank was hanging from underneath the vehicle.
