Had a blowout today. Our 3 year old Goodyear G614 blew out. It was on the front door (passenger) side. It did blow out and we received no advanced warning from our TPMS (Doran) but got an immediate 0 pressure warning. Luckily we were on a 2 lane road with an improved shoulder and were able to slow down, pull over and limp about 1/4 mile to a parking lot where I changed the tire. (I did not feel like waiting around for Good Sam ERS).
The damage appeared to be minor which was the bending of the sheet metal (jay wrap) behind the entry steps and in front of the slide out. It did damage the trim around the steps and the bottom trim on the slide out and rip the wiring from the side clearance light.
We give thanks for the ability to get safely stopped, the tire changed in a timely manner and making it to our home safely. I have attached some photos (if I can get them to upload).
