It would be next to impossible to describe each problem.all problems that i have listed are completely true.i can say with complete certainty that the problems occurred after the 75000 mile waranty i bought was over with the exception of the egr valve which the dealer replaced just to have it fail again.also the dealer replaced the o2 sensor which again is failing again.the horn/airbag sensor was also replaced by the dealer.please note that all repaires by the dealer was (a) before the waranty had expired, and (b) i had to call chrysler and complain just to have those things fixed.i have had the car checked by an authorized dealer so i know these problems to exist.the dealer, instead of fixing my car, which they won't do, they tried to get me to trade it in on another new vehicle.my wife and i could not be more dissatisfied with a "new car" than we are with this one.believe me, if we were to have known about this car's track record, we would have never have purchased it.i guess thats all i have, thank you.r( dot number: tire size: p1856014 )

Was driving down the hwy @ appro 70 mph, the steering column started to shimmy, and my front passanger blew. I lost control of the vehicle, and landed in the median in approx 3 feet of water. Had to tow the car for 50 miles, back to the dealership. I was told that the "bead broke on the tire, due to improper mounting at the time of manufacturing." then almost in the same breath, i was told that it was my fault, my tire warranty does not cover "road hazard or wear and tear on the tire". I was then told to turn it into my insurance company, which i did, after losing my job for lack of transportation.i filed a defect complaint with goodyear, and chrysler. Chrysler told me it was up to goodyear, who in turn denied my claim 3 hours later after i filed. My insurance company totaled out the vehicle, and left me with a $400 balance still to pay on my loan for the car.i understand that in 1997, both manufactures involved were forced to recall approx 40,000+ vehicles due to the same problem. Even though i was not physically hurt, the amount of stress both financialy and mentally has been enormous. Please advise me asap of what i can do. ( dot number: tire size: p185/65r14 )

Dt*:the contact stated the vehicle is equipped with automatic door locks.this feature locks the doors automatically when the vehicle is put into drive.due to a failure in the automatic door lock, the doors must be manually locked.the vehicle has been inspected however the problem cannot be corrected.also the keyless entry has been taken to the dealer 5 times for reprogramming.this only corrected the problem for a short period of time.updated 4/6/2006 -

The tires were defective.the tire pressure will not sustain.the tire pressure light stays on, and the consumer had to add airdaily. The dealer refused to cooperate.the left front door body side was falling, the solder joints in the hazard warning flasher switch may crack, the coolant light had come on, there was an erratic sound when the ignition was first turned on, the driver window had a water leak, the left power window won't seal, the regulator was broken, and the key would get stuck in the ignition intermittently due to binding cylinder lock.

I have had electrical system go out twice while driving.the tires were replaced at 22,000 because they were worn out. Stering wheel vibrates to the point it is inoperable.

Pontiac prides itself on driving excitement, it should actually be that it is a driving nightmare.this car has had so many problems. This is the list of current and past problems which includes: the trunk leaks/ incorrect speedometer that caused two speeding tickets/driver's floor and under the front right seatare always wet. Also,replaced battery twice/alternator/starter/ radiator and all hoses after a sudden "explosion." in addition,thermostat had been replaced at least 4 times andmass air flow sensor once. The rear window defogger no longer works,right side power window does not go back up/the tape deck is broken, front lumbar i seat broke around 40,000 miles. The front right and leftwheel bearings has been replaced 3 times/tie rods have been replaced once on the right and twice on the left/ anti-lock braking system malfunctioned andfront brakes wore out with in 15,000 (typical of most pontiacs just going by the comments of other pontiac owners that i know. This list is quite long and extremely disappointing, especially since the car is not paid for yet and only has 125,000 miles on it and is a 1992 model.( dot number: tire size: 205/55/r16 )

Where do i start, this car has been a money pit from day one!the brakes had to be completely replaced 3 days after we bought the car--signature ford claimed it was are fault after some argument they finally reimbursed us for the brakes.we discovered a small leak, we found it to be coming from the heater hose.we decided to trust signature ford, they claimed that we needed a new heater hose, water pump and radiator.we took are car back to the first mechanic who looked at it and he swore that those things were not leaking when they left his shop, no proof though so we haven't filed a complaint against signature ford.we have since replaced the heater hose and water pump.we are taking the radiator in to be checked out very soon.we had the starter replaced at signature ford, since it was fixed the keyless entry stopped working.we've had the brakes complely fixed, three times.we have had the oxygen sensors replaced.the airconditioner will not work, we were told that we needa new compressor and clutch.there is a short that causes a fuse to blow, resuliting in loss of gauges.one of the back windows will not work.the molding around said window does not fit properly.the power steering makes a strange noise and sometimes does not seem to be working; we took it in to signature while under warranty and were told that it was fine.when we first purchased the car the tires that were on it were too big resulting in excessive wear.the current tires show signs of excessive wear on the inside front passanger tire.the transmission has been totally rebuilt, the tech. Who fixed it said that this is typical of sho's.the fog lights sometimes fail.the lamp out light comes on even when no lamp is out.the check engine light comes on sometimes during acceleration.the door ajar light comes on and goes off at various times.if we had known then what we know now we never would have purchased this vehicle.we cannot afford all of these costly repairs!*

Engine idles very eratically. Head lights dim on braking-inside dash and radio lights flicker-shifts into 1st gear harsh-voltage drops in the red causing car to almost stall-when turning on air conditioner there is a load whinning noise- car runs eractic on startup-locked up in reverse once-car shakes while driving-clicking noise in the dash-have been to shop over and over for these problems- first it was nothing,then the serp.,belt,then the alternator,now it is my radio causing these problems (so i am told) car still not fixed. As for the exhaust one of the pipes was popping and cracking, this was replaced. (tiresize: 235-55r16)

This car has had ongoing problems with various electrical components.the dealer is often unable to replicate the problem while in the repair shop.the car has been serviced for electrical malfunctions of various nature 19 times, and in the repair shop 44 days.it has been out of the shop 2 days and again the door locks will not let us in the vehicle.this started with the rear door lock not letting us out of or into the car.the problem now affects all four doors.they cannot be locked or unlocked using the remote, the key, or manually.we therefore must exit and enter using the windows.the windows (all4) have also malfunctioned.the dash lights abs, traction control, replace wiper fluid, illuminate when there is not a problem.the o2 sensor has been replaced.the alignment on the wheels has also caused repeated problems and i have replace 4 tires.the car intermittently dies while driving.the dealer is unable to replicate the problem and says cadillacs just do that sometimes!my daughter ended up in the median of 71 hwy after the car died at 70 miles per hr.the dealer has replaced the battery, the starter, many various doorlock parts and harness wiring, abs wiring, traction control wiring, and worked on the ignition switch.the problems still occur.we now carry a hammer with us to break out of the car in an emergency should the doorlocks not work.

The vehicle's brakes had to be replaced about every three months.the rear end was unable to be lined up, if so, the vehicle would fishtail back and forth and the consumer would unable to drive the vehicle.the tires were out of round and the vehicle would run rough, especially when going up hills. *sc

Since new, car has been at dealer 7-times for vibration in front end, 5 times for excessive steering backlash, 3 times for steering wheel shimmy during braking, and 2 times for engine high temperature. (5 tires have been replaced. 4 rims have been replaced. 3 sets of brake rotors have been replaced. Power steering pump replaced. Power rack and pinion unit replaced. Front end aligned. Tires balanced 9 times.) vibration still exists at highway speeds with car pulling to the right. Dealer wants to replace tires again along with one more rim. Car engine temperature goes up to 230 degrees, dealer says it is normal. Steering wheel still shimmies during braking and during highway speeds. Front tires show cupping and premature wear patterns with only 4000 miles since being replaced. Seems like dealer(s)do not want to solve problem. I would like a new car, but dealer does not want to give me one.( dot number: 91s s2 tire size: p225/50r16 )

When vehicle encountered slight vibration is common highway roads surfaces, the vehicle will jump, jerk and wander from side to side, favoring the right side. The rear of the vehicle without warning will brake away and try and begin to spin first left and then right..when road conditions are wet from mist or rain, the vehicle will constantly try to begin a right rear sliding action as if the rear of the vehicle is try to cometo come around and get in front of you while in a forward motion. Speeds at which this accurs is 45 to 70 miles an hour.loss of forward, directional control will accure, vehicle wanders back and forth.vehicle will fishtail on wet road conditions. Very sever corner to corner tire wear. Rear tires conpletely bald. Constant tire rotation proves worthless. Vehicle will pull to right front when brakes applied. Front to rear alighnment problems. No specs available from dealership for alighnment. Set rear camber, both sides by eye. An uncontroled highway spin resulted in sever vehicle damage.

Very poor performance and gas mileage has been observed while driving this car. Mopar own website for ptcruiser has parts for air cleaner and exhaust system to fix this problem but at the owners expense. Www.pt-tuning.com has a website with owners information about air cleaners and exhaust systems to fix the problem. I beleive the average gas mileage of a light truck is 20.7mpg and this car gets nowhere near that.i think for that reason the air cleaner and exhaust system should be replaced as a recall item to provide the owners with an enjoyable car instead of the lemon it has turned out to be.

I have a nissan maxima that i had to replace all tires because of a defect that came to me in the mail after i brought my new tires and was not reimbursed. I also had problem with front rotors that they kept replacing numerous times until my warrant ran out and than i had to replace them with high performance rotors so it would not happen again.now after all of that and more i am not able to drive my only transportation because out of nowhere my transmission blew up after my extended warranty ran out because of years not mileage and no matter where iwent iwas told that if i would replace it with a new or use transmission that i would havethe same problem and no one wants to work on it.i was told by mechanics that only the 2004 has transmission problems.

My wife and i purchased a 2008 infinity m35x less than a year ago.on our first freeway drive here in the seattle, wa metro area we noticed that the car would violently jerk in a very unsafe way to the left or right.this violent jerk is so severe that if you are not paying complete attention when entering a section of truck rutting the care will leave the lane and snap into the next lane.within weeks of purchasing the vehicle i took it back to the infinity of kirkland dealership where we had purchased it.they understood the problem and mentioned that other owners had brought this model in for the same problem.the dealership mentioned that when they brought it to the attention of the manufacturer that they stated it was a regional road condition issue and they would not be responsible for a repair or alteration.i told the dealership that a rental vw rabbit did not show similar signs of a jerking motion when traveling the same roads.the dealership understood and agreed that other models in the infinity line don't have this issue. The dealership went on to say that some of the other owners had filled complaints with the ftc and did in fact finally get a some resolution from the manufacturer.we have recently filed a complaint with the ftc. In just those cases where complaints were filed, the manufacturer replaced the brand of tires that were installed in the vehicle and for the most part repaired the issue.this "repair" was only done when the manufacturer was forced to do so.this seems not only unfair to all the other owners but irresponsible of the manufacturer.my wife and i believe this to be extremely unsafe and are surprised that this condition has not already hit the news cause accidents and potential deaths.please help us remedy this situation.

2002 pontiac grandam gt-1 has continuous grinding, rubbing, and popping soundsfrom the front steering. Also has uncontroled power steering where the car couldgo off the road.

I skidded backwards down the street in snowy conditions because 2019 honda civic si was shipped with summer tires instead of all season tires.the manufacturer's window sticker indicated that all season tires were installed when in fact, they were summer tires which were totally unsuited to driving in new england in winter.i only discovered this after i was unable to control the car.honda is aware of this and has issued service bulletin 19-007, but has not notified all of the dealers and has not contacted the owners directly.

Flat tire, leaking valve stem 15400 miles, flat tire---another leaking vale stem, 17244 miles--2 different tire involved.

The contact owns a 2006 chrysler pt cruiser.the vehicle has goodyear eagle tires, size p/205/55/r16 with schrader valve stems, model tr413(na).while checking the air in the tires ,the valve stem on the front driver's side tire failed halfway in the threaded area, which caused the tire to blow.within the valve stem, the contact noticed green corrosion on each tire where the stem was located.the vehicle was towed to a local repair shop and the mechanic stated that the valve stem failed and caused the tire to blow.the valve stem has been replaced.the contact called the manufacturer and they stated that there were no recalls on the tire stem; therefore, he would not be reimbursed for the repairs.the failure and current mileages were 14,272.

Gas mileage as stated on vehicle window sticker grossly exaggerated when compared to actual mileage. Car also had 243 miles on odometer at delivery. When questioned about this the dealer stated that the car was a swapped vehicle that came from a dealer in massachusetts. I was never informed of the amount of mileage on the car until i looked at the odometer upon pick up. There are over 240 miles on this car that are most crucial in the break in of an engine. I do not know how this car was driven during those miles and suspect that it may have not been driven with the care that i would have. I have placed several complaints regarding fuel mileage with both nissan usa and biener nissan. To date i have not gotten any resolution to this problem. I also had to replace both rear tires of this vehicle at approximately 500 miles. Both rear tires were progressively balding from the center line of the tire to the inside shoulder of each tire, to the point where the radial belt was exposed at points of the shoulder. The dealer explained that the dot numbers did not match with the front tires and that someone had switched them in. This also shows that the dealer didn't do a complete safety inspection on the vehicle before delivery.

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. ( dot number: mkhc tire size: 195/60hr14 )

The contact stated that while driving 45 mph an alert on his dashboard illuminated instructing him that the vehicle should not be driven more than 50 miles as the tire was going flat. Thirty miles later the vehicle was stopped and the front driver side tire had developed a bubble on the sidewall, which caused the tire to shred. The vehicle dealer was notified but offered no assistance. The manufacturer of the vehicle was notified but offered no assistance. The tires had not been replaced.

Lexus rx400h has a brake issue. Instead of stopping it sometime accelerates and continuous braking leads it to stop. The hybrid technology forces many of us to change all four company fitted all four tires just in 2 years. Very disappointed by paying premium for premium brand but not getting premium quality!

The accident that happened in october wasn't reported because it was a single vehicle accident and the pavement was wet.i figured it was my fault and not the brakes.at the second accident, the pavement was dry and the collision was was a result of the brakes failing.i can only conclude that brakes during the first time were a compelling factor to the accident.i went to the dealership to complain about problems i had been experienceing with the brakes before both accidents.they only told me that there was nothing wrong with the truck.( dot number: tire size: 235 )

Cannot keep tires balanced. Balanced 3 times in last 6 weeks. Also had 2 tires replaced to try and correct. I was told by a friend in dayton ohio that he had same problem. According to goodyear dealer this is a recurring problem on the 300m with the 17 inch wheel package. Every time i ask chrysler dealer if they know of such problem, they say no, but goodyear dealer says that i am not alone with this problem, and he has had many complaints, and this is just one goodyear dealer. He says there are no problems with these tire on anything else. Only the 300m with 17 inch wheels. (dot number: mk438mdrtiresize: p225/55r17)

I have had both problems (abs and tire failure) on two seperate occasions. The date on the report was for the most recent. I came around a curve to the right, then turned to the left to straighten out for the road and nothing happened. I started heading for a ditch in someone's yard so i applied the brakes they locked up then released completely. My right front tire went flat causing steering to be nonresponsive. In my first accident, i was following a friend coming from a light that just turned green, and the car in front of him started to slow down to turn, when i applied the brakes, they locked up and would not release so i turned the wheel to avoid the accident and the right front tire went flat causing me to slide on the wheel into the back of another motorist. I have witnesses in both cases that say there was nothingi could do and that i was not breaking any laws. No citation was given in either case because the officers agreed that i did nothing wrong.( dot number: tire size: 255/55/r17 )

I purchased the car in 1996. I immediately had problems with the brakes and had to bring the car in many times and was told that nothing was wrong. After the 24 month warranty was up i was told that i needed front rotors and pads and rear calipers and pads. I argued with them (vw america) and they said that they couldn't help because it was out of warranty. I have proof of them saying nothing was wrong for 2 years and then out of a sudden i needed over $500. Worth of work. (tiresize: 15 inch)( dot number: tire size: 15 inch )

Rotors have been replaced 4 times and turned 5 times in a year, rear hubs relaced 3 times in a year and i still do not have brakes. Dealt with chrysler and speedway dodge. Noone can fix the problem. Chrysler needs to replace this vechicle.the dealerships, 3 of them say that is just a dodge. If that is just a dodge, why are they allowed to sell them. Having no brakes is a very serious problem. I have filed complaints with the better business bureau, the dealerships nhtsa and still no answers or luck in getting this vechicle fixed. (tiresize: 255/65/r15)

30k service, reported to dealer that steering wheel shakes when applying brakes...asked dealer to check on alighment problems.dealer no alignment needed, but brakes were worn down 50% & also needed new rotors.

I called dealer & they referred me to a dealer closer to my home, 3 days & 300 miles later, 2nd dealer asked how many times i had changed the brakes, because i now, needed rotors, and worse, all my tires were "cupped" & i also needed a whole new set of tires...i asked 2nd dealer if it was safe to drive my car.they said it was ok to drive, but recommended changing brakes, rotors & tires @ a cost of $1,100. Dealer also explained that the lack of rotating & balancing tires could have contributed to the uneven wear (aka: cupped tires). I was also told that the loud rumbling noise, would eventually go away, since the tires had been rotated. The 2nd dealer invoiced the 1st dealer for this service charge.3 days later, i went to goodyear tire shop (for 3rd opinon) because i thought the tires may be defective. Goodyear advised me that cupped tires result from uneven wear (usually recommend rotating & balancing tires every 10k mi.), if not, problems w/brakes & rotors.goodyear couldn't determine why the problem occurred @ only 30k mi. Such a problem could occur at about 60k miles, butnot rotors. Goodyear balanced & rotated my tires &also discovered that the driver's side tire was rubbing against the wheelwell, causing a large gash in the wheelwell.in the interest of consumer protection, i seek your professional assistance in bringing a positive resolve to this matter.my car has spent a lot of time @ dealer service shop.volkswagen must be held accountable for bad craftsmanship & poor service advice.

Purchased vehicle in november 2005. Tires were rotated for the first time in april 2006 service. Since that time i have experienced excessive vibration in the steering wheel at a constant speed of 55mph. Excessive vibration in the steering wheel is experienced at speeds between 45mph to60mph. Excessive vibration stops in the steering wheel and begins in the right front passenger seat at speeds that exeed 60mph. Returned vehicle to dealership on several occasions where the problem was unresolved. Technician advised me that the problem may be a defective tire.made contact with nissan corporation of america (ref# 5602757)where i was advised that there were no reported complaints, recalls or defects recorded. I was advised to return to local area dealership and speak with the service manager. Making contact with the service manager was unsuccessful, even after leaving message.

Revised/update: original complaint 10222650 3-29-08. As per tire forensics specialist right rear tire has 2 nail punctures likely picked up on the freeway, unforeseen.he said that due to punctures,slow to fast pressure changes, the tire heated up, inner sidewall de-vulcanized.so my tire flattened, car lost control, fishtailed across fwy, i collided with big rig and eventually came to stop on shoulder. Do tire manufactures test for these possibilities for tires they market?if not, why not?it is almost inevitable for any number of car tires to pick up unforeseen objects that could puncture them.is this a design flaw or equipment materialissue in as much as the inner side wall and outer side wall of this particular model of tires is very different in their component structure??please respond.

The vehicle is a 2008 subaru tribeca limited 5-passenger with remote start.the vehicle was purchase at a primary subaru dealer in our local area, as a demo with 1,500 miles on it (manager at the dealer was driving it at the time).the vehicle at first didn't make any noticeable noises or vibrations (seemed factory new, flawless).after a month of normal driving a noise from the passenger side suspension components or undercarriage area would make a rumbling or low squeaking/rubbing.shortly after, i made it clear on our 4,500 mile oil change service that this issue was present and was affecting me as a consumer to enjoy my new car.the problem was originally overlooked by all the persons i had asked to take a look at it (dealer manager, used car specialist and shop mechanic) after a second attempt of leaving the vehicle at the dealership for 2 days, they discovered the issue i was trying to explain to be the problem and came back saying the following.that a new(with zero miles) tribeca with similar trim and package would make the same noise as my vehicle as well as another used tribeca that was on the lot that the manager was driving as another demo model for the dealership.the noise would occur at any speed and especially when the body of the car would move or shift weight and the suspension components were demanded.times at which the noise would occur were the following: speed bumps, taking turns, backing up, pulling away from an intersection on a green light with or without aggressiveness.at the time, nothing was done to eliminate the noise or the cause and source of the issue, other thanlubricate the strut.however, when it rains, due to the moisture which causes the dampness in the part(s) making the noise for some time until it dries up again.

I have had electrical system go out twice while driving.the tires were replaced at 22,000 because they were worn out. Stering wheel vibrates to the point it is inoperable.

Rear tire wore out prematurely, causing tire tread on the inside to show. Dealer notified. The rear tires wore on the inside because of too much negative camber.new tires were purchased and installed.the consumers case went to arbitration but was rejected because the problem would require a design change which was beyond the scope of arbitration.the consumer called cadillac to but a retrofit kit to adjust the camber but no kit was available.a design change was made which was not interchangeable.the manufacturer made a design change and the consumer believes they should retrofit all 1998catera's.*nlm

Car has been repaired 4 times and still has vibration at highway speeds.manufacturer tells me this is normal.mr

Suspension will not stay in alignment.have replaced all four tires at 13,000 miles with realignment and currently is in the shop to replace all tires and have aligned again.there has to be something wrong with the specs or the vehicle.

I have a intermittent cyclic vibration at speeds from 65mph and above. The first time i took the car back to the dealer, they replaced 3 of the tires because they were not round. This helped the problem, but didn't cure it. I have taken it back twice more and although the service manager ,after taking a test drive with me, agrees that the vibration is still there, they say they have checked everything and can't find a problem. He says he tested another pt cruiser and it has the same feel. I have talked this over with the owners son and i am now told that i must just live with it.

There was a recall on the front ball joints which i'm convinced lead to the uneven wear of the front tires. After the replacement nnoone in the service dept.

Prior to repair, vehicle was operating fine.dealer refused realignment of the vehicle, per request of the consumer,because it was not covered under the scope of the recall.also, all four tries were replaced at 8,000 miles on vehicle.*la

Right rear control arm bent, leading to massive mis-alignment, and the ruining of 4 tires.saab claims it resulted from "energy" not a defect.they say i must have driven it "too hard."i in fact babied the car, driving moderately, hitting no major bumps or holes. State farm claims it probably resulted from metal fatigue, not an impact.won't pay because not impact related.i believe the arm was defective.ordinary driving should not lead to a bent suspension.

I took my vehicle in to the tire shop this morning to have the tire patched for a small screw that was picked up during normal operation. I received a call a short time later from tire shop telling me that the sidewall of my tire had failed. This is the second sidewall failure my goodyear eagle ls-2's have experienced in less than 2 months. Vehicle is 2015 volkswagen touareg, and the tires were original with the vehicle. 50% failure rate is unacceptable. I had to replace the first one and will be forced to replace the second one as well. These are around $325 per tire, so out around $650 in less than a year, but i feel incredibly lucky that neither incident was at speed, or the loss could have been much heavier.

Front tires suddenly lose inflation. First time it happened was less than a day after i bought the car new. The right front tire blewout while i was driving at freeway speed, causing considerable damage. The second time was five months later when the left front tire "fell off the rim" while i was driving on a city street. The third time was last night, 11 months later, when that same tire again fell off the rim. Proper inflation was maintained at all times. In fact, inflation of all tires had been checked only four days (six miles) earlier. Despite there being complaints of a similar nature in your database, mitsubishi and goodyear both deny ever hearing of such problems, though mitsubishi did settle a damage claim after the first incident and has provided free road service after the other two.

A few days before the failure, we noticed a vibration in the front of the car. We thought it was a balance problem and made arrangements to have it re-balanced.

When we contacted good year, they said there were no problems with a blow out of this type and we would be compensated with a pro-rated discount for one new tire, as there was only a 38% usage on the separated tire.

Warranty claim submitted to goodyear on or shortly after sept. 27, 2000 by servicing dealer (signature lincoln/mercury, lafayette la 70503). No response from dealer or goodyear to date (jan 11, 2001), despite numerous phone calls. As you can see from the photos the failure of the tire was catastrophic. The tire was low mileage and maintained properly. There were no road hazards. There are 5 passengers who can attest to these facts. A la state trooper who arrived on the scene immediately after the incident (and changed the tire himself- nice man!) identified the damage as being consistent with firestone tire failures. In fact, he first demanded to know if it was a firestone tire. The tire tread was preserved in one piece and there is no evidence of puncture or cut anywhere on it. We were very fortunate indeed that this did not result in a serious crash and/or fatality. This incident happened in the left lane of i-110 in baton rouge la in the midst of 3-lane, fairly heavy 60 mph traffic. By the way, the vehicle, a mercury grand marquis, performed admirably.

I have to replace the tires on this car with 5,600 miles on them for safety purposes so that i do not risk injury or death to myself or someone else.i just do not understand why ford has put this type of a tire on the vehicle.i should have been told by ford the tires are not adequate for certain conditions.i am very upset that i have to replace a set of new tires on a new vehicle so that i can feel safe and not have an accident due to incorrect tires.i contacted the dealership where i purchased the car, however, they are not being very cooperative with my complaint.the only explanation i receive from them is that they don't know what i am talking about, or they have never had that kind of a complaint, or i am using bad driving judgment for the conditions.

While driving on the nj turn pike at 70 mph, my husband felt what seemed like a tire going flat.he proceeded to try to get to the shoulder.suddenly, the left rear tire blew and he totally lost control of the vehicle.he was hit head-on and in the rear.both he and the driver of the other vehicle were injured and transported to the hospital.two days later we went to see the car at the towing garage and we saw the rear passenger tire was split on the sidewall.these tires were replaced recently and were rotated and checked by goodyear three months ago.goodyear saw nothing wrong with the tires at that time.is goodyear waiting for a death to occur before they issues a recall?there are many complaints about the rsa18" tires.

My goodyear eagle ls tires (original tires) failed to pass the state inspection at 16, 284 miles.the buick dealership & discount tire both confirmed that the tread measured lower than accepted standards at 2/32 on the front tires and just barely passed at 4/32 on the back.both confirmed it was even wear not caused by bad alignment.i could not believe my tires had gotten to the point of being unsafe on a new car with only 16,284 miles on it.i feel the goodyear tires gm used that year were not good and i feel this should be investigated on other cars from that time period.i was furious i had to spend $400 to purchase four new tires when i'd rotated these and did everything that was required of me.i'm just thankful for the state inspections that brought this to my attention and possibly saved me from an accident from a blow out.i would like to think i had some recourse for this unnecessary expense but doubt that i will.thank you for your interest in public safety.

In january 2009 i noticed a shaking/vibrating coming from the back of my 2007 honda civic lx.the problem worsened until i took it into the dealer in may.the dealer inspected the car and informed my that my brakes and rear tires needed to be replaced.at 30,000, the rear tires were practically bald. The dealer made no mention whatsoever of the rear upper control arms that should have been replaced according to service bulletin 8-001.i took the car to a mechanic for a second opinion and was told i should bring the car back to the dealer because my shocks needed to be replaced.i felt very deceived by the dealer; they did not want to live up to their responsibility under the warranty.

Original equipment on a 2000, neon p185/60r15 size.vehicle went over a pot whole andtire blewout.

Shortly after purchasing the quest, i noticed a vibration in the vehicle steering wheel and encountered a rough ride when the vehicle went over 30 miles an hour. I took the car to the dealer the first time and they balanced and rotated the tires. Shortly after, i experienced the same problem and returned to the dealer. This time the dealer told me that the tires were out of "true" and that i needed to go to goodyear to have the tires replaced. Goodyear replaced two of the tires. A few months later, i returned to goodyear because the problem returned. Goodyear then replaced one additional tire. Within a few months, i returned to goodyear again with the same problem and they agreed to change all four tires. Within a few months i returned to goodyear with the same problem and they suggested that the vehicle weight may of been too much for the tires so he requested that i replace the performance tires on the vehicle with other tires. I agreed and goodyear again replaced all four tires. In december 2001, i once again returned to the goodyear because the problem was once again present. They agreed to replace the tires, but felt that the problem was with the suspension on the quest rather than a defect on the tire. The second problem i've encounter with the quest since about 15,000 miles is the accelerator pedal sticks. This is a more serious problem because on several occasions the problem almost caused an accident. It occurs when the vehicle is stopped at a light, and i then try to accelerate. The pedal is so stuck, that when it finally gives way the vehicle takes off quickly. This also happens if i take my foot off the accelerator to slow down, then if i try to accelerate again i can't. I took it in for service, but the dealer said it was an intermitten problem and could not replicate the difficulty. The problem is still intermitten, but i noticed that when i drove it in florida on vacation this past month, it occured regularly.

Defective tread tire by goodyear originally equipped caused terrible tire pulls so long unable to rotate tires.lexus refuses to replace the defective tire with a correct tire with no charge. It is risky to keep driving es300 with defective tire, causing serious accident as a goodyear tire dealer warned me.please treat this as a safety related problem and ask lexus/goodyear to replace it free as they covered up the defect when i bought es300. It will be too late after an accident. Appreciating your quick remedy! harry( dot number: )

I was driving on i 95 in florida for about 12 miles when my rear passenger tire blew out. Apparently what happened was the side walls of the tire separated from the tread. This was a new 2006 mitsubishi eclipse with goodyear eagle rsa 17 inch tires. The tire had only 6700 miles. Thank god it was my rear tire and not my front, because actually nothing happened to me. If it was my front i would not be here writing this. When i went to goodyear they told me it was a blow out.if it would have been a blow out there would be no more tire. The tread was still intact, but the side wall just separated. Many people now have told me that this was a tire defect and not a blow out. Goodyear gave me a new tire at a discount.

I bought this car brand new on may 31, 2001. The car came with 16 aluminum rims and the goodyear eagle low profile tires. This was used as part of the salesmen's speal to get me to buy the car. Since may, i have had 6 or more instance of flat tires, some while driving on highways, some driving on side streets and some while parked. The dealer has fixed the problem each time. The first time i had to buy a new tire and rim which cost over $500. All of the other times they found the rims bent and simply used a hammer to bang them back in shape. Ihave spoken to the service mgr, jim martin and he himself personally banged the rim straight on 11/15. He also told me this is a known problem with aluminum rims that are not strong enough to withstand a pothole or even a driveway. The low profile tires, which are not much bigger then bicycle tires, are not big enough to prevent the rims from bending if i hit a pothole, speed bump, etc. The worst part is i spoke to several mechanics and they told me this is a common problem. Because the rims are 16 inch, i can't replace them with steel rims because steel rims do not come in 16 inch sizes for a p195/50 tire. The only option they gave me is to go to a tire dealer and buy new tires and 15 inch steel rims or live with the problem. I fear for the safety of my wife and family and i think this should be looked at for a possible recall since it seems every dealer and mechanic in america knows this is an accident waiting to happen. Please contact me asap. Thank you. (dot number: 83vtiresize: p195/50r16)

At a little over 33,000 miles i was experiencing issues with losing air in my tires on my 2007 mitsubishi spyder eclipse.the tires i have are p235 45r18 - goodyear eagle.one morning my tires would not even keep enough air in them to get to work.i stopped at the mitsubishi dealership where i purchased my car and they told me it was too dangerous to drive on them.i asked about a warranty and they told me there was none.i replaced the tires because i was afraid to drive my car at the cost of a little over $600.now i am having trouble with a 3rd tire doing exactly the same thing.there are cracks in the tires and this is causing the loss of air.

Tires (2) failed suddenly with belt failure, much tire shake, in well maintained oem tires on car. Investigation shows catastrophic belt failure, and/or belt shift.(dot number: m6x0bmwrtiresize: p225 60r16)

I have had repeated problems with the tires. Due to poor construction i have been forced to repeatedly purchase new tires. My first incident occurred a year and a half after purchase of the vehicle. Within the 45 m.p.h. Area the tire exploded and ruined the aluminum rim completely. I immediately took the wheel and tire to a nearby hibdon tire center where they checked the tire and concluded it was faulty. They explained to me the tire's steel belt had shifted casuing it to tear out the side wall of the tire which caused it to "blowout." now more recently, my original three tires have also shifted steel belts. Two of these three have began to reveal side wall tearing. I have looked for other brands of tires which may solve the problem , but since the tire size (p215-50-r17) is so rare, i have had no luck. The orignal tire sytle (goodyear eagle rs-a) is also quite expensive, but being the only correct sized tire i have no choice but to purchase the problem tires to replace all three original tires.

The contact owns a 2007 mitsubishi galant.the vehicle has goodyear eagle rsa tires, size p235/45r/18.the contact noticed that the sidewall was cracked halfway around the front driver side tire.the vehicle was taken to the goodyear dealer and they stated that they would replace the defective tire.the mechanic stated that based on the tread wear, the contact would be responsible for the price difference of the tire.she was displeased to discover that she would have to pay for anything.in addition, she felt that the remaining tires should be replaced at no cost due to the vehicle's riding performance.the defective tire has not yet been replaced.the vin and dot number were unknown.the current and failure mileages were 20,100.

Eagle rsa p245/45r18i was driving my 2004 nissan maxima down rt. 3 east in nj going approximately 65 mph.all of a sudden i felt the car start to vibrate and shake terribly i realized i had a flat.before i could even have any reaction, the car jerked to the left, then to the right, i tried to stop it and i spun out of control on the highway and crashed into another car who was trying to pass on my right.my car came to a rest with my driver's side door facing oncoming traffic, and my car blocking off the left and the middle lane, and literally 1 inch from crashing into the concrete divider.luckily oncoming traffic stopped, and the passenger and myself in my car were not injured.however there were two people in the other car we hit claiming injury after the accident.the inside wall of the tire was completely separated from the rest of the tire.my mechanic told me he never saw any tire like that.i filed a complaint with goodyear, and i was told to have the tires sent to akron, ohio for testing,(the adjustor that came to pick up the tire told me she never saw a tire like that either) that was 10 months ago and i haven't even gotten an answer from them. Now as i was once again driving on the highway (december 22, 2005) going approximately 70 mph, my front drivers side tire blew out, there was no accident this time. I am worried that i am not going to be so lucky when this occurs for a third time. I rotate my tires every 6,000 miles and check the air pressure in them regularly. I've filed another complaint with goodyear but what good is that going to do? they won't give me an answer and i have to wait to be contacted again by their insurance adjustor. I don't know what to do with this, i bought a $30,000 car, and i am afraid to drive it. After reading the entries on this site, i know that i am not alone now with this problem, these tires are defective and need to be recalled before someone gets killed!i am looking for help with this situation.

While drivingvehicle began to shimmy. Dealer was contatced, and stated that orginial equipment goodyear eagle gs tires, size p22560r16 with fourty thousand miles were showing cracks throughsidewall. Dealer has replaced tires. Please provide further details.

On 04/26/06, while at a sams club store, i noticed a large bulge in the sidewall of one of the two goodyear eagle ls 225/55r17bw tires that i purchased from walmart and had installed by walmart on 03/28/06. The tire was determined by a tire associate at the sams club store to be unsafe to drive on, so he removed the wheel and replaced it with the spare. I am taking the tire back to walmart on 04/27/06 to get a credit to be applied toward the purchase of a replacement tire.

Dt*:the contact stated upon inspection of the tires it was noticed the sidewalls on all four tires are cracked.the vehicle dealer and tire manufacturer have been alerted.

I wish to report a possible defective tire. On nov 20, 2004,ipurchased a 2004 ford focus se. With 5.914 miles. On 12/9/04,while driving along the interstate freeway, my car's tire blew out. Upon examination, there was several blowout tears along the outer sides of the tire.i reported the incident to the local ford dealer who referred me to goodyear. Goodyear said they believed the tires failure was caused by tire "under pressure" and a nail puncture. The goodyear technician made a determination upon visual inspection based on ripples along the tear marks were caused by under pressure. The ford dealer made the same explanation as did goodyear. However, i disagree with the opinions of both ford and goodyear. Request an examination of my tire to determine if there is any tire or belt manufacture defects. My tire is a goodyear eagle, rsa version, size p195/60/r15. My tire is available for inspection to determine failure.

Good year eagle rsa tires size 245-45r18 these are orginal eq. On my 2004 nissian maxima. These tires have developed splits only on the inside side walls of all 4 tiresthey have 32000 miles on them w/some good tread.i fear these splits will seperatethe tread and cause some damage or an accident. The splits were brought to my attention when i had my tires rotated and balanced the other day. Yet on the outside side wall everything apears to be ok. This is possiblely a very dangerous situation due to the fact these splits in the side walls are only on the the insde sidewall of the tires.

This complaint documents a very disturbing situation regarding goodyear eagle rs-a p245/45r18 tires on our 2004 nissan maxima.we are the original owners and there were 29,500 miles on the car at the time.we had a violent flat tire (passenger rear) and upon removal noticed that the inside side wall had split in multiple regions around the circumference of the tire.when the car was up on the lift as the tire was being replaced at a goodyear dealer, it was noticed that the remaining three tires also had multiple long, deep inside side wall cracks, evident around the entire circumference.it was obvious that the car was extremely unsafe to drive in this condition, and we had all 4 tires replaced. We have no idea how long the tires had been in this condition, though it looked like the rubber had degraded significantly.since the cracks were on the inside, they were impossible to see with normal visual inspection.we consider ourselves extremely lucky that we were not seriously injured or killed as a result.it is also evident that this is a defective condition of the tires, for this to happen to all four tires at only 29,500 miles. Once home, we checked the internet to see if there was any recall issued. We were horrified to find numerous complaints from owners of 2004 nissan maximas that have experienced the same problem.we find it hard to believe that prestigious companies such as goodyear or nissan would be so irresponsible as to allow people to unknowingly drive around on hazardous tires. We are extremely concerned that other nissan maxima owners may experience the same problem but may be hurt or killed as a result.it is irresponsible of both goodyear and nissan to not respond to this situation.we believe they should issue a recall or safety alert and fully reimburse the owners for the tire cost. We then sent letters to both goodyear and nissan to address their intent.

The subject tire were on a chrysler 2003 pt crusier .the first time the car has appx 12000 miles around jan 2005 on and the two front tires developedbubbles and had to be replaced.the car now has 20000 miles (jun 2005) and again the two from tire have bubble and need to be replaced.the first time the dealer said the bubbles were caused by goeing thru pot holes which i though logica; at the time.but in less then six months both front tire have bubbles and need to be replace.is does seem odd that it alway both tire.it seem to me thatthe tire are defective, the car has a design flaw or the tires are not suitable for this car. The bottom line is that this is a safety hazard and a it is just a mater of time before one of these tire blowout at high spped and kills someone.

This is the second tire in the set of four to develop a bubble in the sidewall.(dot # mmv9mahr0100)this would indicate a 50% failure rate on this batch of tires!

I purchased a mazda 3 new in april of 2006.between 20,000 - 30,000 miles i noticed that the tires would probably need to be replaced soon.at 32,225 miles, my left front tire blew.the rubber was still attached to the rim, and the outer tread was still in one piece.the entire sidewall just exploded.these tires are extremely dangerous.i replaced all 4 tires in fear that there would be a new incident and not be as fortunate (injuries or damage with this blow out).

Tire sidewall blowout/separation at 45 mph, tire did not hit anything, separation.

The front left tire went flat after vehicle was sitting for a month, and the front right tire blew out while driving because of cracks in the sidewall. Also, the 2 rear tiresdeveloped cracks in the sidewall.

Dt*:the contact stated on friday night the vehicle was pulled into the driveway.on saturday morning the contact noticed the front passenger tire was flat. The side wall was split.upon further inspection it was noticed all four tires had a split on the side wall, but only one had gone flat.the tires have not been inspected to determine what caused the sidewall damage.

All 4 of the stock goodyear rsa 18" tires had cracking on the inside sidewall. What i mean by the inside sidwall is not the actual inside of the tire, rather the sidewall that faces towards the vehicle. No visible cracking was occuring on the outside sidewall. Pictures of this can be seen on: http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=354119.

- the contact owns a 1999 honda accord with an odometer reading of 111036 miles. The contact stated that the vehiclehad goodyear eagle rsa tires that continue to go flat. The contact had the tire repaired several times, but it had not fixed the problem. On 2-23-07whiledriving under dry conditions at60 mph had another tire failure.the contact took the vehicle to the repair shop, andthey replaced the tire. The contact called goodyear, they told him that the tire failure was not their fault ,and that their tires did not have defects and to go back to the shop for repairs.

The consumer states that in less than three years she has purchased 3 pairs of tires as a result of side wall blowouts on the back of the vehicle.the first blowout happenend in feb. 01, on the back driver's side, the second blowout happened on the expressway on jan. 25th 2002 on the back passenger side tire, and the most recent blowout happened on the expressway on the back of the driver's side and had less than 29k miles on them and had already been rotated to the back of the vehicle.(all were blowing out on the inside wall off the tire, which also caused the vehicle to drop and damage the rims)the consumer is requesting to be reimbursed for the tire(s) that have failed as well as the extensive damage done to the rims of the vehicle (goodyear eagle tires size 215-50-17).*scc

Tire had a sidewall seperation on the highway resulting in accident; this has happened now twice, on the stock tires,first time i thought it was just bad luck, however two times seems to be fishy.the tires have plenty of tread left.i am interested to find out if this has happened to other people.( dot number: mkhcfjdr19 tire size: 195/60r14 )

This spring my daughter had two tires blow with sidewall problems.the first time, she hit a pothole going about 25 mph and the sidewall went out.she replaced this tire.then about one month later, she was driving on an interstate highway.she had passed two trucks and went back into her lane when something did not feel right.by the time she could slow down and stop, the tread of the tire came off in a large circle and dented the side of her car.the wheel was also damaged.she claims that she did not hit anything.there is no damage to the tread of the tire to indicate that she did.however, the sidewall was shredded.now we are concerned about the tires.i did not see the first tire, however, she said that the sidewall had a huge hole in and the tire could not be repaired.have there been other reports of problems with these tires?on the other hand, after seeing the damage done to the tire, we feel that the ford focus handled very well, allowing her to get off the road safely and avoid an accident.( dot number:)

Goodyear eagle rsa tires p245/45r18, on nissan maxima 2004, with 20,000 miles.all four tires are defective.tread is separating from sidewall.goodyear has no recall and nissan has no recall on this issue.the dealer i took the car to said that mine was about the 3rd nissan he seen with this issue.i just took my 2004 nissan maximum into the dealer for a front seat and undercarriage recall issue and ask them to look at my front tire because the sidewall of the tire had a large split in it.the dealer told me that all four tires were bad on my car and the inside of the tires were much worse than the split in the sidewall that i pointed out to them. My car only has 20,000 miles on it and the dealer would not replace the tires because goodyear will not acknowledge this problem and send the dealers replacement tires.

Four new goodyear eagle tires (3 months old) were found to be defective (sidewall separation and deformity) after driving from cleveland, ohio to las vegas, nevada.just out of ohio we experienced an iritating, hand-numbing vibration on the steering wheel.we managed to minimize the effect by driving under 75mph.after 3000 miles and five days of driving, we lost the power steering on the first day in las vegas.the goodyear service center replaced the power steering pump and the rack and pinion.they further pointed out that the tires were badly deformed, and that they were primarely responsible for the damage to our vehicle.two of the tires were immediately replaced without question at the local wal-mart (they were purchased at wal-mart in cleveland).i point out that our vehicle was inspected three days before the trip began as precaution and preparation for the trip(cost of inspection and minor repairs was $600.oo).tire balance and alignment was reported to be in perfect condition.

Traveling 60 mph at 12:45 pm on i-95 nb in ma, 2 miles south of exit 8. Clear weather, temperature in mid 60's, smooth asphalt pavement. Sudden loud roaring noise. I thought at first it was some sort of engine failure, blue smoke coming out of rear of car. Next were vibrations and short loss of control of vehicle. I regained control and pulled off to right shoulder. Both sidewalls were disintegrated all the way around, with only a few cords and belts holding the top part of the sidewalls and tread cap to the inner part of the sidewalls on the rim. There was no incident prior to this that would indicate any sort of damage to the tire that failed. I immediately replaced all four tires with a different manufacturer and brand of tires. I believe that this failure should not have occurred with such low mileage on the tires, in the condition the tires were in. (dot number: m6b2lnertiresize: p215/55r16)

Tires were found to be defective by goodyear machenics and sales agents.

2004 maxima has sidewall cracks on goodyear tires.all four tire developed cracks, both on the inside and the outside of the sidewalls.the tire had been regularly rotated and per instructions contained in the nissan owner's manual.

In september 2004 i took my 2004 nissan maxima in for some warranty work, and scheduled maintainence. I advised that my front end felt funny, i eventually had to bring it back in for the skyroof recall and again advised that the car still felt rough, i was advised it was just from the tire rotation and would eventually smooth out, it never did.the skyroof started leaking and it took three more trips to get it fixed, every time i took my car in i told the service dept. That the car still felt rough.on june 15, 2005 i took my car back in for the 30,000 mile maintainence.the service dept. Called and said all four of my tires were coming apart on the inside sidewall, the tires were actually splitting the entire circumfrence of all four tires.they said they had never seen tires split like that.the service dept. Called goodyear and were told they were having a few problems with those tires and would sell me new ones for $900.00 the dealer declined that price and goodyear came up with a price of $550.00 for new tires i was called and told of the final price and advised the dealer i would be contacting an attorney.then dealer then called me back and said they had a set of tires and rims they would sell me for $400.00 i agreed because i was leaving for a trip to indiana the next morning. The tires that they put on my car were the same exact goodyear eagle rs-a p245/45r18 that were defective. My husband called a friend at a local tire dealership and was told they were seeing alot of those same problems with the goodyear eage rs-a.i cannot believe that a company would endanger the lives of the very consumers that buy and trust their products to be safe. I sent a letter to nissan north american consumer affairs dept on june 20, 2005 documenting all the problems, and have had no response so i have turned to you for some guidance as to my rights to be warned and protected when they know there is the potential for diaster with their product.

I purchased goodyear american eagle tires from walmart in big rapids, michigan on 11-18-04.the tires were size p20555r16bw and installed on my 2002 mercedes benz c240 sedan.on 10/2/05 i noticed a flat tire on the front right side of my car.upon further inspection it became apparent there was a crack around the entire circumference of the tire about an inch away from the rim on the inside sidewall.the depth of the crack was all the way to the steel belts.after inspecting the remaining three tires i discovered they were all cracked in this manner.two were as bad as the first tire and a fourth was beginning to crack.i took the tires to walmart in garner, ma where i now reside.the manager was very helpful and replaced the tires without question.however, after calling the complaint in to goodyear, it became apparent they really don't care.i'm concerned there are other people out there who will be killed or injured due to these tires.it's apparent there is a defect because my tires experienced 100% failure rate and were produced in two separate lots.the dot numbers are dot pjt2 4ahr 1604 (3 tires) and dot pjt2 4ahr 3704 (1 tire).goodyear claims there is no problem and that less than 1% of tires are bad.this is not a statistic worth bragging about since millions of tires are produced.the tires i purchased cracked due to dry rot and they were less than one year old.goodyear is unconcerned about highway safety.their attitude at the complaint center was pathetic.i'm concerned that the new tires will also be defective and i need assurance from someone they do not have an ongoing quality issue.i have pictures of the defective tires and the walmart manager in gardner, massachusetts is holding the defectives until goodyear visits him again.

2007 chrysler pt cruiser left front tire blew out.consumer states that goodyear dealer stated the blown tire was not covered under the warranty because the damage was on the sidewall. They paid full price for a new tire.the consumer experienced a second failure justlike the first occurrence, the damage occurred in the sidewall of the tire.

When tires were rotated, the technician found three bulges on the inside sidewall of the left rear tire.the goodyear dealer claimed it was road damage and would not honor the tire warranty.the tire was less than two years old and had gone less than 20,000 miles.it had replaced the original, whose sidewall was punctured when my wife hit something in the road.i suspect that the sidewalls on this model tire should be stronger than they are.

I bought the 04 nissan maxima in december 2004, andin september . 2005 i took the car to have the tires rotated.i was informed by the local goodyear tire dealer that two of the tires had cracks in the sidewalls.because the car had only 10,000 miles goodyear replaced these two tires under the original warranty. Now,in 2007 with 40,000 miles on the car the other two original tires have sidewall cracks.of course goodyear will only give me credit for the wear left on the tires , and a new tire cost $300. We have decided for safety reasons wewere not going to replace these tires with the goodyear eagle size 245/45r18v. This seemedto be a similar problem as ford and firestone had with the explorer several years ago. Why has the public not been informed about the nissan/goodyear tire problem.my conclusion wasfewer of us own nissan vehicles than fords.so, if the tires cause a couple of us to have wrecksthat wasjust the price of doing big business.

During my most recent service for rotation and rebalancing on august 31, the walmart store in roanoke, va brought this defect to my attention. Three of the tires had developed severe and potentially dangerous cracks on the inside sidewall between the tread and the rim circling the inside of the sidewall and appeared to be a "blow-out" potential hazard.the manufacturer's production code was: dot pjt24ahr2403.walmart adjusted and replaced this set with the same tire that they had in stock.i reported the problem to goodyear and was given a claim # 789726.i phoned them to ask what could have been done to avoid this problems or to avoid this same problem for occurring on the current set that walmart had put on.they told me that nothing could have been done or could be guaranteed on the newer set.i think further investigation should be done by nhtsa as this could be a very serious problem for other drivers caught unaware to this problem.please advise.

3 of the four tires, both front and one rear, have bubbling on inside edge with tread seperation.it sounds simular to the firestone problems.i find it perplexing that these tires lasted less then 37000 miles before they had tread seperation.as soon as i noticed, i replaced all the tires with another brand because i did not want to risk a blowout.it is difficult to notice this particular seperation because it occured on the inside edge of the rear tires.i noticed it only because something did not sound right and i located the faulty areas by feel.i am concerned that if this is a wide spread problem, some might not notice before the seperation becomes worse and/or a blow out occurs.( dot number: m6xobmwr24 tire size: p22560r16 )

The tread on tireswears excessively and has to be replaced at 15000 miles. This is the second time the tires have to be replaced. Dealer says there is nothing wrong with vehicle balance, it has to do with the tires.

My wife and i were driving in southern missouri from memphis, tn.we were on i-57 (i think that's the road number we were on at the time).we had a blow-out in which the tire body (the tread of the tire) separated from the rest of the tire.i recall seeing the intact (or at least apparently intact) tread of the tire rolling into the median of the highway, while i was trying to keep control of the car and avoid an accident with other traffic or even having the car roll over.the result was that the tire was flat, my wife and i were stranded on the side of the road miles from our home in memphis, tn and we had to replace both the tire and the wheel, which had worn down seriously since the tire was no longer present.we had to call roadside assistance to change the tire because when i had the tires rotated on the car, an air-wrench was used and the lug nuts were too tight for me to remove.upon our return home, we ordered a new wheel and purchased a new tire when the wheel came in.the total out of pocket cost was approximately $1,100 (if this goes any further, i will supply details, but the wheel cost approximately $775 and the replacement tire was around $300).

The oem tires installed in my 05 nissan quest s when new are in need of being replaced at only 30000 milles. The tire in question is the goodyear eagle ls2. I've been reading reviews of owner of this kind of vehicle. We are mostly complaining of the lack of tread warranty in this tires, also about how fast these tires' lifes are gone so fast and finally that this is the only tire in this size available. In other words we need to keep up purchasing a really bad tire at a high price. Can you help us, the consumers.

The car was parked when i noticed the missing pieces of tread. Upon closer examination of the tire, i noticed that the some of the tread was separated from the tire. Also some of the steel belts was showing. I droved to the nearest goodyear dealer and they indicated that there was 25% tread left and the amount to replace the tire was over $112.00. I went to another store and purchased another brand of tire which was less expensive than the amount quoted by the goodyear dealer. I contacted the gooryear customer service and they also said that it was an expensive tire and that their policy was to prorate the tire. I am glad that i noticed this before going on a long distance trip this weekend. I have 2 concerns - 1..i need to report the tire defect to somebody.2. I think that similiar to the firestone situation, goodyear should at least pay for part of the tire replacement, not just prorated based on an artificially high list price.

At this time only two front tires have splits in them and were replaced. 6 to 8 months later the other two developed splits and were replaced by mcnabb tire in rockmart, georgia.

I have a 1998 and 1999 cadillac catera.both cars have goodyear eagle rs-a tires.the 1999 had to have all four tires replaced with less than 25,000 miles.goodyear paid for the front two because the camber specs given to cadillac were incorrect.the back two were blamed on the delaer switching tires from another car.the 1998 had both its front tires replaced under the same program but the rear two seemed all right.they were until last night when one of the rear tires went flat.and the other rear tire could go flat at any time.all eight tires have exhibited the same excessive wear on the inside edge of the tread.the steel belts show and all rubber is gone on the edge.the remainder of the tire has tread comparable to your expectations for the milage of the car.something is wrong either the camber or the tire itself.the flat last night occurred at 75 mph on i-12.a potentially dangerous situation.

I have replaced 8 tires so far in the 7 months i have owned the car...3 local mechanics blame problem on soft aluminum wheels or manufacturer defect in wheels (tires are not to blame).

Goodyear tire 245/45/18.

Because my tire was going flat, the mechanics found that the wheel was cracked.they ordered one; it came and was wrong size; when they ordered the next one, they were told that there were 500 on back order!this 1st visit was on 7/5/00 and i didn't receive the new tire until 8/21/00. What if we don't find out that these wheels are cracked until one breaks apart?how are we to know this could happen?( dot number: tire size: 17 )

My front and rear wheels are bent. These wheels are alloy wheels and i have not collided with anyone, nor have i driven the wheels over any potholes or any such thing. I am surprised the wheels bent so easily. It's only been like 10000 miles.

I have had 8 tire failures during 15000miles of driving. Been to goodyear dealer 56 times and car dealer 6 times. Bothsay there is nothjing wrong, but aaa truck drivers all say it is faulty rims on the sebring. I have read of dozens of similar problems on the nhtsa web sitre. Took copies to dealer who disputes the validity of persons' report to nhtsa. I have spoked to chryslerhotline 3 times and goodyear's once.all say there is no reported problem and to go to dealer. I told dealers i am afraid to drive this car on a freeway. The car has been farther than 30 miles from home.most occurences happened during the warranty but dealer now says it is past warranty.i suspect cvhrysler is hiding information from other sebring owners andthere have been no deaths from flat tires, so there has been no recall. I will continue to contact chrysler to get total failures of the tires on the sebrings. Nhtsahas reports onwheel problems on 1998 and 1999 sebrings.i have all the records of aaa calls, dealer visits and tire dealer visits. (tiresize: p215/50ri7)

In 2.5 yrs i have had 5 rims bend resulting in blown tires.very poor design.chrysler needs to handle this before somone gets hurt or dies!!!and it is very expensive!!! (tiresize: p215/50r17)( dot number:tire size: p215/50r17 )

The tires lost air due to defective rims.the rims were bent out of shape.*mrscc

Have to inflate dented rims at least once a week. Cannot hold proper pressure. Hitting small potholes dented 2 rims in 2 places while driving less than 10 mph.

I have had 4 flat tires since i purchase the vehicle less than a year ago. At first i thought it was the tires, but after the fourth flat, and seeing other complaints on this website, i realized it was the car. The rims bend, releasing air and the tires go flat. Then the rim wrecks the tire, and bends further. Essentially, it is a car that can't even be driven. The previous owner had to also replace all 4 tires but didn't tell me until later, and sold the car to me with only 10,000 miles on it.at $200 a peice, it really adds up. I have contacted chrysler and they continue to drag their feet. I feel these cars should be re-called, especially after hearing the numerous complaints from other sebring owners having the same problems. (tiresize: 2155017)( dot number:tire size: 2155017 )

Penske service center said all 4 rims bent when brought in for alignment - i do normal driving and have not hit any pot holes - dealer checked and said all 4 wheels were fine and within specs, after dealing with them for 3 weeks. 6 days after i got it back from them my left front tire blew out at 70mph on a busy highway. This was 6 days after they said everything was fine when they checked tires and rims. Dealer says that it could have been a nail in my tire, but there was no nail to be found? dealer has the car right now. Car still shimmies and the cause is soft alloys used in the manufacture of the rims. Rims bend very easily and is a major safety hazard. Check to see how many nhtsa consumer reports there are on mitsubishi rims. Way to many! why do you do nothing about it? have built website to inform the public at http://www.mitsubishicars.org- dealer and mitsubishi refuses to do anything about it. Research on the internet also shows many, many people having the same trouble. These wheels should be recalled. Pictures of my tire and rims can be found at http://www.mitsubishicars.org/mitsu/proof.html - oh and you can also find some consumer complaints about the same defects. These are european wheels and they are not safe. Have the marking jll on them, the jll is like the dot symbol in the states. (tiresize: 205/75r16)
