On Sept. 6th, 2009 I rent a car in las vegas, nv from advantage rental car co. When I was driving alone I-15 to la, driver side front tire was blow out. There was smoke from left side and pieces of failed tire were all over the place. It damaged frond bumper and right side mirror. The car almost out of control, I might get killed by that. I called 911 and aaa got the rental car towed back to las vegas and asked rental car company to check if there some defects of its tire in order to protect other drivers. I told them I would pay for professional investigation, but later on advantage rental car co. Told me that tire was disposed. That caris 2008 Hyundai Elantra SE.
