THE LEFT REAR TIRE ON MY DODGE CARAVAN BLEW OUT AND RIPPED WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS WAS A SCARY SITUATION BECAUSE HAD THERE BEEN A LOT OF TRAFFIC THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS PERHAPS FATAL ACCIDENT. THIS IS THE SECOND TIRE TO HAVE BEEN DAMAGE WITHIN TWO WEEKS. I BELIEVE THE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE. I WOULD LIKE AN INVESTIGATION DONE. I ALSO DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR FOR FEAR OF AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING BAD DEFECTIVE TIRES. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY TIRES REPLACED AT NO COST TO ME BECAUSE THE DAMAGE WAS NOT MAY FAULT. PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. *JB

I OWN A 2000 PONTIAC GRAND AM GT, AND I AM COMPLETELY FRUSTRATED WITH THE LACK OF RESPONSE TO ALL OF THE GRAND AM'S PROBLEMS. THERE IS A GRINDING/RUBBING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF CAR. I WAS TOLD IT NEEDED NEW ROTORS AND PADS....WELL I HAVE DONE THAT TWICE NOW WITHIN THE LAST 4 MONTHS, AND STILL THE NOISE IS THERE. THEN I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION....REPLACED THAT AND THE NOISE IS STILL THERE. NOW I HAVE FOUND OUT BY ALL OF THE OTHER HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THIS CAR THAT THE NOISE IS MORE THAN LIKELY FAULTY GOODYEAR TIRES. WHEN I CALLED LOCAL PONTIAC DEALER THEY TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THAT COULD DO WITHOUT CHARGE BECAUSE OF NO RECALL ON THE TIRES. I AM TO MY BOILING POINT WITH THIS CAR AND SOMETHING HAS GOT TO BE DONE BY PONTIAC. *NLM
