1976 Chevrolet Monza

PLEASE PUT FIRESTONE OUT OF BUSINESS. IN 1996-7 (CHEV/MONZA) I HAD FOUR TIRE FAILURES (2 SEPARATE INCIDENCES) WHILE ON THE OPEN ROAD. FIRESTONE REPLACED THE FIRST SET OF FAILED TIRES ON A PRO RATED BASIS. THE SECOND SET FAILED WITH FOUR PERSONS IN THE CAR AT ROAD SPEEDS. IF IT HAD BEEN THE FRONT TIRES, NO DOUBT, MY PASSENGERS AND I WOULDN'T BE HERE TODAY OR ME TO WRITE THIS. AT THE SECOND FAILURE I WAS PREPARED TO DRIVE THROUGH THE FIRESTONE STORE WINDOW INTO THEIR SHOWROOM TO LET THEM KNOW OF MY FRUSTRATION AND THEIR NEGLEGENCE. HAD I DRIVEN THROUGH THE WINDOW, AS AN INDIVIDUAL, I WOULD HAVE BEEN HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR A CRIMINAL ACT. THEY COMMITTED THE CRIMINAL ACT. I CAME CLOSE TO LOSING MY LIFE. I COULDN'T BEGIN TO AFFORD LAWYERS AND WAIT TIME. THE GOV'T CANNOT OVERSEE OR CONTROL THEM. THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED WITH OTHER TIRE MANUFACTURERES. IT'S TOO MUCH OF A COINCIDENCE. TWICE IN 22 YEARS IS TOO MUCH. PLEASE HOLD THEM RESPONSIBLE. THEY ARE FULLY NEGLIGENT. THROUGH PR SPINS, THE TRUTH WILL NEVER BE KNOWN. CLOSE THEM DOWN. NOTHING SHORT OF NEW MANAGEMENT, NEW ASSOCIATIONS, NEW PLANT FACILITIES AND EQUIPMENT, NEW QUALITY CONTROL METHODS CAN OVERCOME SUCH NEGLIGENCE. I DON'T THINK WE DESERVE THIS TYPE OF FREE MARKET ORGANIZATION. NO CONSUMER WOULD WILLINGLY TRUST THEIR LIFE TO FIRESTONE TIRES. IT WOULD ONLY BE THROUGH GOV'T INTERVENTION, IN THIS FREE MARKET ECONOMY, THAT FIRESTONE WOULD SURVIVE. IF FIRESTONE WERE AN AIRLINE YOU WOULD HAVE TO SHUT THEM DOWN. WHY IS THIS DIFFERENT? THERE ARE ANY NUMBER OF INCIDENCES LIKE MINE YOU WILL NEVER HEAR ABOUT IN YOUR PRESENT INVESTIGATION. TAKE A STAND! FOR ONCE!( DOT NUMBER: )
