The problem with the firestone tires started long before that, my mom had bought a 72 Impala & it had those exploding firestone 500's that had all 4 replaced in the 1st 1000 miles. Then 3 of those got replaced in the next 500 miles. My dad took the car back in for the last set & made sure they put on a different brand of tire which were goodyear that lasted about 40k then. But I have to ad that the only reason they replaced them was were are related to the dealer. Otherwise they were just kept on putting on more of those junk tire by order of chevrolet.
