225/75R 17 NEW CAR, 3000 MILES ON IT DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND I HEAR THE RAPID THUMPING. LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS NEAR AN EXIT AND LUCKILY PULLED OFF TO SAFETY. BECAUSE THERE IS A CONTINENTAL TIRE RECALL ON 3 SPECIFIC TIRES I WANTED TO BRING THIS TO YOUR ATTENTION AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED WITH MY NEW TIRES. TO MY KNOWLEDGE THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE ROAD THAT I WOULD HAVE RUN OVER TO CAUSE THIS . MY SAFETY COULD HAVE BEEN JEAPORDIZED AND OR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS.
