TIRE BLOW OUTS. THE TRAVEL TRAILER TIRE BLEW OUT AND CAUSED DAMAGE (GOODYEAR). *NLM

GOODYEAR WRANGLER RT/S SEPARATED FROM BELTS AND BLEW OUT WITH 5/16 TREAD LEFT, OTHERS ARE CRACKED AND BUBBLED.*AK

GOODYEAR EAGLE RSA 225/45 17R TIRES THAT CAME WITH THE CAR WHEN WE BOUGHT IT NEW. COMPLETELY WORN OUT IN 18,000 MILES. INSIDE SIDEWALLS WERE CRACKED AND HAD BULGES. (BREAKDOWN OF CORDS) TALKED TO VW ABOUT THIS AND THEY SAID IT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY TOLD US TO TAKE IT IT TO A TIRE STORE BECAUSE IT WASN'T THEIR PROBLEM. WENT TO AMERICA'S TIRE STORE (LIVERMORE, CA) AND THEY WERE GOOD ENOUGH TO CALL GOODYEAR ON THE DEFECT. THEY PRO-RATED THE TIRES (I THINK WE GOT $25 OUT OF IT) AND RECOMMENDED CONTINENTAL CONTITOURING CONTACT 225/45 17R. THESE TIRES ARE WARRANTED FROM CONTI FOR 55,000 MILES! THE PRICE WAS THE SAME AS THE GOODYEARS. OUTSTANDING TIRES! DON'T BUY YOUR VW NEW WITH GOODYEARS! GET THE MICHILENS IF YOU CAN.*AK

WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT DUE TO A SPLIT IN THE SIDEWALL, CAUSING DRIVER TO PULL OVER, OFF THE ROAD.*AK

I BOUGHT WHAT I THOUGHT WERE 4 BRAND NEW GOODYEAR AQUATRED TIRES FROM GRAHAM TIRE HERE IN GRAND ISLAND, NEBRASKA... I GOT 3 TIRES DOT...SERIAL NUMBER....MKX83MHR2901 AND 1 TIRE DOT...SERIAL NUMBER....MKX83MHR2402 THE 2402 TIRE RUNS HOT, AND IN MY OPINION IS UNSAFE. I SEE THE DOT...MKX CODE IS FOR RE TIRE KERSHAW, SOUTH CAROLINA...AND ITS LISTED UNDER RE-TREADS. WAS I SOLD FOUR RE-TREAD TIRES....AS FOUR NEW TIRES? IF SO I HAVE BEEN CHEATED. PLEASE REPLY...THANK YOU. *AK

WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, THE LEFT REAR TIRE EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING. DEALER NOTIFIED. *AK THE VEHICLE HAD A LEFT TO RIGHT MOVEMENT IN THE REAR AND IF THE SPEED WOULD HAVE BEEN ANY HIGHER, THE CONSUMER COULD HAVE LOSS CONTROL. THE TIRES WERE CHECKED FOR PROPER INFLATION BEFORE GOING OUT OF TOWN. THE TIRE CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE'S PICK UP BED. THE CONSUMER DISAGREED WITH WHAT GOODYEAR FOUND AND REQUESTED THAT THE TIRE BE RETURNED. *SCC *JB

THERE IS A HUMMING NOISE IN THE 2 FRONT TIRES AND THEY ARE UNEVEN. THE DEALERSHIP INDICATED THAT THIS IS CAUSED BY 'FEATHER WEAR'. DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED THE SHOCKS, TIRES ,AND ALIGNED THE VEHICLE, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM *AK
