SINCE DEC. 5 2003 I HAVE HAD ALL 4 TIRES ON MY CAVALIER REPLACED BECAUSE THE STEEL BELTS BROKE IN THE GOODYEAR CONQUEST TIRE SIZE P195/70R14 WITH LESS THAN 25475 MILES ON THE TIRES.THESE TIRES NEED TO BE RECALLED AND TAKEN OFF THE MARKET UNTIL GOOD REPLACES THEM WITH A BETTER BUILT TIRE.I BELIEVE THE GOODYEAR CONQUEST TIRE IS A VERY DANGEROUS TIRE AND COULD CAUSE A DEADLY ACCIDENT AND COULD HAVE ALLREADY CAUSED SOME.THE WORST THING THAT HAPPENED WHEN MY TIRES WERE REPLACED , THEY WERE REPLACED BY THE GOODYEAR CONQUEST TIRE, WHICH IS LIKE REPLACING DEADLY TIRES WITH DEADLY TIRE.TODAY I HAD THE LAST TWO REPLACED BECAUSE OF BROKEN BELTS.*AK

GOODYEAR CONQUEST TIRE P195/70R14 , STEEL BELTS BROKEN. THIS IS THE SECOND TIRE THAT HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF BROKEN STEEL BELTS.TIRE CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *AK

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 1 GOODYEAR CONQUEST TIRE ,SIZE IS P195/70R14 BECAUSE STEEL BELTS BROKE IN SEVERAL PLACES WITH LESS THAN 25000 MILES ON TIRE.I BELIEVE THESE TIRES ARE VERY DANGEROUS AND COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.I THINK GOODYEAR SHOULD REPLACE THE REST OF THE TIRES AND SHOULD BE RECALLED.*AK

GOODYEAR CONQUEST P19570R14 POOR QUALITY TIRES,HAVE HAD 1 TIRE THAT HAD TO BE RELACED BY DEALER BECAUSE SEVERAL STEEL BELTS BROKE.TWO OTHER TIRES WENT FLAT BY HOLES MADE BY SMALL GRAVEL AND ONE OF THE TIRES THAT WAS FLAT HAD 3 OR 4 CRACKES IN THE TREAD AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT GOING TO HAPPEN TO THE 4TH TIRE.THESE TIRE HAVE LESS THAN 25000 MILES ON THEM. I BELIEVE THE TIRES HAVE GOT A DEFECT PROBLEM.

GOODYEAR TIRE RECALL. I OWN A 15 PASSENGER FORD VAN, APPROX ONE YEAR AGO I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM GOODYEAR, TO TAKE MY VAN TO A GOODYEAR DEALER AND HAVE THE TIRES INSPECTED FOR SOME REPLACEMENT CAMPAIGN. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT MY TIRES WERE TO BE REPLACED AT NO CHARGE. RECENTLY FOUR OF THE FIVE REPLACEMENT TIRES HAVE SEPARATED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE FIFTH HAS NOT SEPARATED BECAUSE IT IS THE NEW SPARE. ONE OF THE CENTER TREADS IS LETTING GO AND ARE RISING HIGHER THEN THE REST OF THE TREADS CAUSING THE TIRE TO BOUNCE DRASTICALLY. THESE TIRES ARE THE GOODYEAR CONQUEST. I HAVE BEEN GETTING A LOT OF STATIC FROM THE SUPERIOR GOODYEAR DEALERS, SO AFTER CALLING GOODYEAR, I WAS ADVISED TO GO TO DISCOUNT TIRES FOR AN ADJUSTMENT. ONE OF MY TIRES SEPARATED A WEEK AGO, I REPLACED IT WITH THE SPARE, AND ON 9-19-03 THE FOURTH TIRE LET GO. I WAS ADVISED BY DISCOUNT TIRE WHY I WANTED THE SAME KIND OF TIRE FOR REPLACEMENT, I ADVISED THEM THAT GOODYEAR SAID THAT WAS THE ONLY TIRE I COULD REPLACE THEM WITH. DISCOUNT ADVISED DIFFERENTLY, AND PUT TWO MICHELIN TIRES ON FOR ME AT LITTLE COST. I GUESS ALL I AM TRYING TO DO IS TO ADVISE THAT THE TIRES GOODYEAR IS USING TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL RECALLED TIRES ARE WORSE THEN THE ORIGINALS. I HAD 50,000 PLUS MILES ON THE ORIGINAL TIRES WITH NO PROBLEMS, AND I AM BARELY GETTING 20,000 OF THE REPLACED TIRES. I AM NOT ASKING FOR ANYTHING ONLY TO ADVISE OF THE SITUATION. I AM A RETIRED STATE TROOPER FROM ARIZONA SO I KNOW A LITTLE BIT ABOUT TIRES, AND I FEEL SOME ONE OF CONCERN SHOULD KNOW ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE. *JB

GOODYEAR CONQUEST TIRE TREAD SEPARATED.*MR THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED PLY SEPARATION WHICH CAUSED THE REAR TIRE TO BOUNCE AT SLOW SPEEDS AND MAKE NOISE ASSOCIATED WITH PLY SEPARATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GOODYEAR BUT THEY REFUSED TO LOOK ATT EH TIRES. THE CONSUMER REPLACED TWO TIRES WITH BRAND X TIRES, ABOUT 1000 MILES LATER THERE WAS ANOTHER INDICATION OF THE SAME PROBLEM WITH ONE OF THE REMAINING GOODYEAR TIRES. THE CONSUMER ALSO REPLACED THOSE WITH BRAND X. *NLM

TWO ORIGINAL GOODYEAR TIRES SUFFERED TREAD SEPARATION. THE FIRST TIME I WAS TRAVELING AT 75 MPH. MR
