I WAS TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY 2 IN WASHINGTON STATE, AT 60 MPH WHEN MY FORD F150 FRONT PASSENGER TIRE BLEW OUT CAUSING THE TRUCK TO PULL TOWARD THE DITCH. NO ONE WAS HURT. I CHANGED MY TIRE AND CONTACTED THE TIRE COMPANY WHERE THE WARRANTY WOULD BE HONORED. I HAD 30,000 MILES ON A 2 YEAR OLD TRUCK. I THOUGHT SOMETHING WOULD BE DONE ABOUT IT BUT NOTHING WAS. I AM CONCERN ABOUT MY REMAINING TIRES I HAVE ON MY TRUCK.

GOODYEAR EAGLE LS 2 RUN ON FLAT TIRES (245/40R19) DEVELOPED SIDEWALL BUBBLES ON 3 TIRES OVER 9KMILES. NO RIM DAMAGE, NOT EVEN A SCRATCH. I DID NOT HIT ANY MAJOR POTHOLES. THE ONLINE CUSTOMER REVIEWS ALSO CITE TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE WITH SIDE WALL BUBBLES.(SEE TIRERACK REVIEWS OF THIS TIRE). THE NHTSA COMPLAINT FORM ONLY ALLOWS FOR 1 COMPLAINT BUT THREE OF MY TIRES FAILED AT SEPARATE TIMES IN THE SAME MANNER. THE 1ST TIRE FAILED AT 6K, SECOND AT 9K AND THE LAST ONE AT 12K. *TR

GOODYEAR 245-40R-19 TIRES ON MY 2013 BMW 535XI ARE DEFECTIVE. AT 11K MILES, I HAD TO REPLACE ONE TIRE AND THEN AT 15K I HAD TO REPLACE ANOTHER DUE TO SIDE WALL "BUBBLING". DEALER INFORMED ME THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WITH THESE TIRES AND THERE "IS NOTHING BMW OR GOODYEAR" WILL DO FOR THE CONSUMER. GOODYEAR DISCONTINUED THEIR INSURANCE. COST TO REPLACE WITH MOUNTING AND BALANCING/TAX $500 PER TIRE. AT FIRST, DEALER MENTIONED YOU MUST HAVE HIT A POT HOLE. WHEN I MENTIONED TO HIM THAT TWO TIRES "BUBBLING" AFTER 15K MILES IS VERY QUESTIONABLE HE THEN INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A TIRE ISSUE. I SENT IN A COMPLAINT TO GOODYEAR AND BMW TO NO AVAIL. THEY DO NOT WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE TIRE ISSUE YET THE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE AND BMW CONTINUES TO PLACE THEM ON THEIR VEHICLES. RESEARCHING THE ISSUE IT SEEMS THERE ARE MANY OTHER PEOPLE IN MY SITUATION. *TR
