GOODYEAR TIRES Complaints

GOODYEAR WRANGLER HP P275/60R20 SIDEWALL SPLITS I'VE HAD TO BUY 3 TIRES AT DIFFERENT TIMES DUE TO THIS TIRE FAILURE ALL 3 TIRES HAVE SPLITS IN SIDEWALL. VERY EXSPENSIVE TO REPLACE DUE TO THIS CAUSE. JUST WANTED TO SEE IF THERE COULD BE A REASON FOR THIS FAILURE AND IF IT COULD BE INVESTIGATED. I'M STUCK WITHOUT A SPARE TIRE DUE TO EXSPENSE..LAST SIDEWALL SPLIT OCCURRED ON JULY 30TH, 2009. *TR

TREAD SEPARATION, GOODYEAR F1 SUPERCAR TIRES. 4 FAILURES OUT OF 5 TIRES AT APPROX 15,000 MILES. THESE ARE TOP OF THE LINE TIRES 245/45ZR20 . OE ON DODGE SRT 8 CHARGERS AND CHRYSLER 300 SRT 8 CARS. MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN AGGRESSIVELY DRIVEN. PRODUCT REPORTS AT TIRE RACK AND OTHER FEEDBACK LOCATIONS INDICATE THIS PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON. CONSIDERING THAT THESE TIRES ARE PLACED ON HIGH PERFORMANCE VEHICLES THIS TYPE OF FAILURE IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAVE REPLACED THE TIRES AND KEPT TWO OF THEM THAT EXHIBIT THIS PROBLEM. THE OUTER EDGE OF THE TIRE BECOMES SLICK WHILE RETAINING SIGNIFICANT TREAD DEPTH ELSEWHERE. THE SEPARATION OCCURS ON THE INSIDE EDGE. GOODYEAR DOES NOT HONOR WARRANTY CLAIMS STATING POOR ALIGNMENT OR INSUFFICIENT TREAD DEPTH. CHRYSLER CORP DEALERS HAVE NOT FOUND ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS AND OTHER BRANDS OF TIRES DO NOT EXHIBIT EXCESSIVE INSTANCES OF OUTER EDGE WEAR OR TREAD SEPARATIONS AS A TYPICAL CONDITION WHEN USED AS REPLACEMENT TIRES ON THE SAME VEHICLE. *TR

I BOUGHT A MAZDA 3, 2.3L WHICH HAD THE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURE TIRES WHICH ARE GOODYEAR RS A P205/50R17 DOT V4H4 4MBR 2906 V2589 WHICH GAVE ME A SCARE SINCE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. A PIECE OF TREAD FROM MY FRONT RIGHT CAME OFF.TOOK THE CAR TO HAVE THEM REPLACE. THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TO SEE ID THE CAR WAS OFF BALANCE, BUT EVERYTHING WAS FINE. ALSO THE TIRE SHOWN GREAT DEAL OF DAMAGE SPECIALLY ON THE INSIDE OF IT. I AM CONCERN IF SOMEONE ELSE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS TIRES. SINCE IN THE SHOP THEY COULDN'T FIND ANY WRONG WITH MY CAR REGARDING THE WEARING OF THIS. 3 OF THE 4 TIRES SHOWED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE IN THE INSIDE OF IT, YOU CAN SEE THE METAL. *TR

TIRE TREAD DETACHED FROM TIRE TEARING UP TRAILER. TIRES WERE NOT 2 YEARS OLD & WERE PURCHASED NEW. TIRE PRESSURE WAS CHECKED JUST PRIOR TO TRIP & WAS ACCURATE. TIRE DID NOT BLOW IT STILL HAD AIR IN IT UNTIL THE NEXT DAY. VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING AT 60 MPH ON INTERSTATE WHEN TIRE TREAD CAME APART DAMAGING TRAILER. THE TIRE WAS A GOODYEAR MARATHON ST 225 - 75 R15 LOAD RANGE D.PURCHASED IN 2007. *TR

EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR ON 5/25/2007 THE TIRES ALWAYS SLIP IN WET WEATHER. NO MATTER HOW SLOW YOU STOP OR HOW SLOW YOU START OUT FROM A STOP THEY SLIP 90 PERCENT OF THE TIME. THERE HAS BEEN LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE "GOODYEAR INTEGRITY" TIRES THAT HONDA PUTS ON THE PILOT'S. ALL THE COMPLAINTS ARE ABOUT IT SLIPPING IN WET WEATHER AND HOW UNSAFE IT IS. THE COMPLAINTS CAN BE FOUND AT WWW.HONDAPILOT.ORG. THE TIRES ARE SUPPOSEDLY CAR TIRES AND NOT SUV TIRES AND THE WEIGHT OF THE PILOT IS TOO MUCH FOR THE TRACTION OF THE TIRES IN WET WEATHER WHICH POSSES A SAFETY HAZARD WHEN STOPPING ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE TO STOP FAST. I MADE COMPLAINTS TO THE DEALER AND THEY WILL NOT REPLACE TIRES, I PURCHASE A VEHICLE FROM HONDA NOT FROM ANYONE ELSE BECAUSE OF THERE REPUTATION OF A GREAT VEHICLE AND I CURRENTLY FEEL UNSAFE WITH THIS VEHICLE OR I KNOW THIS IS A POSSIBLE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT WAITING TO HAPPEN OR I WANT IS MY TIRES REPLACED TO A SAFE TIRE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR NEW TIRES, HONDA PLACED UNSAFE TIRES ON VEHICLE. *TR

THIS COMPLAINT CONCERNS GOODYEAR A/T TIRES ON A 2000 FORD EXCURSION. WHILE RIDING IN THE VEHICLE ON 7/14/09, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 ACURA 3.0CL. THE VEHICLE HAS GOODRIDE MODEL SP06 TIRES (NA), WHICH WERE PURCHASED AT TIRE DISCOUNTER. THE CONTACT NOTICED ONLINE THE TYPE OF TIRE THAT THE VEHICLE REQUIRED. HE WENT TO THE DEALER AND PURCHASED THE TIRES. WHEN HE ARRIVED HOME, HE NOTICED THAT THE RATING WAS DIFFERENT THAN THE SET HE SAW ONLINE. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER REGARDING THE MIX-UP WITH THE TIRES. THE GENERAL MANAGER STATED THAT THE GRADE WAS CHANGED BY THE MANUFACTURER, BUT THE TIRES WERE THE SAME. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THE TIRES ARE NOT THE SAME BECAUSE THE VEHICLE PERFORMS DIFFERENTLY AND IS CONCERNED THAT A CRASH COULD OCCUR. THE TIRE SIZE AND DOT NUMBER WERE UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,252. UPDATED 07/23/09 *BF

GOODYEAR EAGLE TIRES , TIRE HAD 27,000 MILES ON THEM ALL FOUR TIRES WAS CRACKED AROUND THE INSIDE BEAD AT THE RIM , GOODYEAR SAYS THEY DON'T WARRANTY OEM EQUIPMENT BUT THE DEALER SAYS ITS THERE RESPONSIBILITY, I HAD TO REPLACE ALL FOUR TIRES OUT OF POCKET. *TR

I TOOK MY CALIBER IN FOR SOME WARRANTY WORK. THEY FOUND THE LEFT STRUT WAS BAD. THEY ORDERED THE PART. I WENT BACK IN THE NEXT WEEK FOR THE STRUT AND ALIGNMENT. WHILE THEY WERE DRIVING BACK FROM THE ALIGNMENT PLACE, THEY HAD AN ACCIDENT IN MY CAR. THEY FIXED IT. I HAVE SINCE THEN BROUGHT IT BACK TO A ROAR IN THE CAR. THEY TOLD ME MY TIRES WERE BAD. I ASKED IF IT COULD BE BECAUSE OF THE ALIGNMENT WAS OUT AND THEY SAID NO. I ASKED IF IT COULD BE BECAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT, AGAIN NO. WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD ALIGN A CAR WITH BAD TIRES. THEY HAVE MADE NO DEAL FOR ME IN THIS MATTER. THE TIRES DID NOT GO BAD IN A MATTER OF A WEEK. *TR
