GOODYEAR TIRES Complaints

CONSUMER HAS EXPERIENCED 5 TIRE BLOWOUTS.*MR ON 5TH WHEEL RECREATIONAL VEHICLE. *CB

THE TIRES HAD AN ONGOING FAILURE WITH DEEP TORQUE CRACKS AROUND THE SIDEWALL. THIS COULD RESULT IN A BLOW OUT WHILE DRIVING. THE ORIGINAL TIRES WERE REPLACED AT 15,000 MILES, THE SECOND REPLACEMENT TIRES WERE AT 20,0000 MILES. CURRENTLY, THIRD REPLACEMENT INVOLVED ALL TIRES FOR THE SAME FAILURE.*AK

WAS DRIVING TOWARDS RAPID CITY ON I -90 W FROM ST PAUL MINNESOTTA. AT AROUND 10.30 AM THE VEHICLE ACURA MDX 04 MODEL WHILE GETTING PAST A RV THE RV STARTED SWAYING AND THE LEFT REAR WHEEL OF THE MDX WAS ON THE LEFT SHOULDER. WHILE GETTING BACK TO THE ROAD THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROL AND WNET ACROSS THE ROAD AND HIT A FENCE ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CAME TO A STOP. THIS HAPPENED AT MILE MARKER 159 IN SOUTH DAKOTA. AIR BAGS WERE DEPLOYED. ONCE WE GOT OFF THE VEHICLE WE OBSERVED THAT THE LEFT REAR TIRE HAD SLIPPED OFF THE RIM. THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH VSA BUT IT DID NOT SEEM TO HELP AS THE VEHICLE WAS UNCONTROLLABLE . THE SPEED AT THE TIME WAS BETWEEN 65 AND 70 MPH. ACURA WOULD NOT LODGE MY COMPLAINT AND WAS ASKED TO WORK WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY ON THIS.*AK

PRIOR TO PURCHASE OF THE VEHICLE A VIBRATION AND BOUNCING WAS NOTED ON THE TEST DRIVE, THE DEALER ASSURED ME THAT THE PROBLEM WOULD BE CORRECTED AND TWO DAYS LATER THEY REPLACED THE TIRES. THIS DID NOT ELIMINATE ALL OF THE BOUNCING, THE DEALER AGAIN SERVICED THE VEHICLE, THE SALESMAN AND THE SERVICE MANAGER BOTH RODE WITH ME IN THE VEHICLE AND AGREED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM AND THAT IT WOULD BE CORRECTED EVEN IF ALL OF THE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS, WHEELS AND TIRES HAD TO BE REPLACED. ONE DAY LATER I WAS TOLD THAT THE BOUNCING WAS CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT, NO OTHER SOLUTION WAS OFFERED. I DO NOT FEEL THE VEHICLE IS PERFORMING CORRECTLY AND IS NOT SAFE.*AK
