TRAVELING AT 65 MPH, TIRE WAS INFLATED TO 78 PSI AND NO ALARM RECEIVED FROM TPMS SYSTEM PRIOR TO TIRE BLOW OUT, FELT A WEIRD VIBRATION IMMEDIATELY BEFORE THE EXIT AND WAS ATTEMPTING TO EXIT TO CHECK THE VEHICLE AT THE PILOT STATION. THE BLOW OUT CAUSED $3858.59 WORTH OF DAMAGE TO THE TRUCK, NOT INCLUDING THE COST OF NEW TIRES. NO ADDITIONAL ACCIDENT HAPPENED BECAUSE WE WERE ABLE TO PULL SAFELY OFF THE INTERSTATE ONTO THE SHOULDER AND REMOVE ANY LARGE DEBRIS PIECES FROM THE INTERSTATE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO EQUIPPED WITH GOODYEAR WRANGLER SRA TIRES, SIZE: P265/65/18 (NA). WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 65-75 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO VIBRATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE INSPECTED AND REPAIRED. THE TIRES WERE REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE DOT NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE VEHICLE AND TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,400.

WE WERE DRIVING AT ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN WE HEARD A POP AND THE LEFT REAR TIRE HAD BLEW APART IN THE TREAD AREA. VERY UNUSUAL. WE HIT NO HOLES. THE TIRES HAVE ABOUT 12,000 MILES ON THEM. GOODYEAR WRANGLER SR-A 255/75/17. OBVIOUSLY A DEFECT. *TR

PURCHASED GOODYEAR WRANGLER SR-A 255/55/17 A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO. ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE MY FRONT LEFT TIRES WAS FLAT AND UNREPAIRABLE. AT THAT TIME DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. BUT AS TIME WENT BY I NOTICED THAT ONCE I HIT SPEEDS OF ABT 50 MPH MY FRONT END STARTED TO SHAKE SEVERELY. I ASSUMED THAT I NEEDED A FRONT END ALIGNMENT OR BALANCING. HOWEVER COMING HOME SEVERAL DAYS AGO MY FRONT AND BACK RIGHT TIRES BLEW. LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED AND WAS ABLE TO CONTROL MY VEHICLE AND NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE PASSING OR BEHIND ME. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DIFFERENT OUTCOME IF SO. I DECIDED TO DO WEB RESEARCH TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY SIMILAR ISSUES AND HAVE FOUND MANY WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I REALLY DO THINK GOODYEAR NEEDS TO REALLY LOOK INTO THIS. I REPLACE THE TIRES WITH ANOTHER BRAND AND NOT ONCE HAS MY FRONT END SHAKEN LIKE PREVIOUSLY. *TR

I PURCHASE A NEW 2010 FORD F-150XLT IN APRIL, 2010. THE TRUCK CAME WITH GOODYEAR WRANGLER SRA TIRES. TWO OF THE TIRES LOST A GREAT DEAL OF TREAD BETWEEN 16500 AND 18000 MILES, NECESSITATING ALL FOUR TIRES BE REPLACED. I CONTACTED MY FORD DEALER AND GOODYEAR AND THE TIRES HAVE BEEN REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THE GOODYEAR WRANGLER SRA TIRES ARE BACKORDERED AND HAD TO PURCHASE GOODYEAR WRANGLER ADVENTURE ALL SEASON TIRES. THE TECHNICIANS AT THE FORD DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME THEY HAVE SEEN EXCESSIVE WEAR ON MANY OTHER OF THE WRANGLER SRA TIRES. I RECEIVED A PRORATED ALLOWANCE FOR THE NEW TIRES; BUT DO TIRES ONLY LAST 18000 MILES NOW. MY PREVIOUS F-150 TIRES HAD OVER 60000 MILES ON THEM AND HAD MORE TREAD THAN MY 2010 F-150. THERE HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS TIRE AND I DO NOT FEEL I SHOULD HAVE HAD TO PAY ANYTHING FOR THE REPLACEMENT TIRES. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH ON AN ASPHALT SURFACED FREEWAY, THE RIGHT REAR TIRE HAD A CATASTROPHIC SIDE-WALL FAILURE AND BLEW OUT. THE FAILURE LED TO A TEMPORARY LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE SPEED WAS REDUCED AND CONTROL WAS REGAINED. AMBIENT TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 75 DEGREES AND THE TIRE WAS APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS OLD WITH APPROXIMATELY 5,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

ALL FOUR TIRES HAVE TREAD SEPARATION FROM THE WALL DOCUMENTED BY THREE SEPARATE MECHANICS AT LESS THAN 30K MILES; SLOW LEAK ON ONE TIRE, NO DEBRIS/DAMAGE TO TIRE CAUSED LEAK, MECHANICS STATED IT IS CAUSED BY THE SEPARATION OF THE TREAD TO THE WALL. NORMAL CITY/HIGHWAY DRIVING, NO OFF ROAD. *TR

THE FIRST TIRE I HAD PROBLEMS WITH WAS THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE THAT KEPT GOING FLAT, I HAD IT CHECKED TO BE FIXED WHEN THE SERVICE MAN SHOWED ME THE DEFECT IN THE TIRE. THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE HAD A SLIT OR WHERE THE SEAM WAS SPLITTING ALL THE WAY AROUND THE TIRE, ONLY ON THE INSIDE. I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRE AND WENT AHEAD AND REPLACED THE FRONT LEFT TIRE AS WELL. TWO WEEKS LATER DRIVING MY THREE CHILDREN AND MY GRANDMOTHER TO GO SCHOOL SHOPPING MY BACK LEFT TIRE BLEW. LUCKILY I WAS ON A DIRT ROAD AND ONLY DRIVING ABOUT 20MPH. UPON CHANGING THE TIRE I NOTICED THE SAME SEAM RIPPAGE OR SLIT ON THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE SO I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED THE RIGHT BACK TIRE AND FOUND THE SAME THING ON IT. SO I HAVE 3 OUT OF THE 4 TIRES ON MY 2004 FORD EXPLORER THAT HAVE THIS DEFECT. ITS VERY DISTURBING TO THINK WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED IF WE HAD BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND THAT BOTH BACK TIRES MIGHT HAVE BLOWN. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THESE TIRES AND SO FAR HAVE NOT FOUND ANY RECALLS ON THIS SPECIFIC TIRE. GOODYEAR, WRANGLER SR-A, P235/70R16 104S. *KB
