WHILE TRAVELING AND WITHOUT ANY INDICATION THREE GOODYEAR TIRES HAD BLOWN OUT. DEALER HAS BEEN NOTIFIED. GOODYEAR HAS REPLACED TIRES AND REPAIRED VEHICLE. *AK *ML

ALL TREAD WORN OFF RIGHT FRONT TIRE AFTER 5500 MILES AND TIRE GOES FLAT. JEEP DEALER AND GOODYEAR TIRE DEALER SAY ALIGNMENT OK. GOODYEAR SAYS POSSIBLE WHEEL BEARING FAILURE CAUSING TIRE TO DRAG. JEEP WILL NOT INSPECT BEARING. AFTER 2 HRS DRIVING AT 25MPH CANNOT STEER CAR, BRAKING CAUSES STEARING WHEEL TO VIBRATE, TOUCHING LUG NUTS WILL BURN FINGER, HUB AND BRAKE ROTOR HOT. *AK( DOT NUMBER: )

RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT AT FREEWAY SPEED. BEFORE COMING TO A STOP THE TIRE RUBBED AGAINST THE FUEL TANK THAT IS MADE OF PLASTIC AND WORE A LARGE HOLE IN THE TANK. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE/EXPLOSION AND LOSS OF LIFE. POOR DESIGN OF THE PUTTING THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK SO CLOSE TO THE TIRE. VOLKSWAGEN CONTACTED AND REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE POOR DESIGN. NEW MODEL VW JETTA DOES NOT HAVE SAME DESIGN. *AK( DOT NUMBER: MKHC TIRE SIZE: 195/60HR14 )

UNDER RATED TIRES ON VAN CONVERSION, VEHICLE NOT SAFE. *AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P235/75R15 )

REPEATED EFFORTS TO GET GM/MICHAEL'S CHEVY TO FIX THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS: A.C. FAN ON HIGH RATTLES, INTERIOR TRIM PIECES (AFTER DEALER REPAIRS) DOES NOT FIT TOGETHER AND HANGS DOWN, CAUSING PROBLEM GETTING IN AND OUT OF VEHICLE,TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT 11,500+/- MILES LEAVING FLOOR SHIFTER TO SLIP OUT OF DRIVE INTO NEUTRAL WITH EASE,TACHOMETER DOESN'T WORK ALL THE TIME AND THE TRIP O METER FAILS AT DIFFERENT TIMES,POWER DOOR LOCKS DON'T ALLOW ENTRANCE/EXITING(BOTH ACTURATORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED), ALL ATTEMPTS WITH DEALERS HAVE ENDED WITH " CAN'T DUPLICATE PROBLEM" AND SEVERAL SUN TREATMENTS(NO EFFORT TO REPAIR OR FIND PROBLEM). I LEFT THE AUTO WITH DEALERSHIP FOR 2WEEKS AND IT WAS NOT REPAIRED. GM REFUSES TO APPLY ANY EFFORTS TO HELP IN RESOLUTIONS. I'M NOW AT THE POINT THAT I'M FORCED TO TRADE AWAY THIS AUTO BECAUSE I CAN'T GET GM/PENSKE DEALERSHIP TO HONOR THE WARRANTY( DOT NUMBER: NONE TIRE SIZE: P225/60R- )

FIRST TIRE WENT FLAT AFTER SLIGHTLY HITTING CURB. SECOND TIRE HAD UNUSUAL BUBBLE ON THE SIDE, WHICH GOOD YEAR DEALER SAID WAS DUE TO HITTING A POTHOLE. (I NEVER DID). SEE NHTSA ODI ID: 551745.*AK( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: S1 94S )
