No problems were experienced prior to jan 31st, at which point my rear driverside tire blew out, through a tear in the sidewall.it appeared through slash marks, which i first i thought was vandalism.after closer inspection of all the other tires, i have found the same marks, and in the driverside front tire, a gap that is about to blow out as well.when i realized it was likely a defective set of tires, i called goodyear.they told me to take the car into a dealer for inspection.the dealer confirmed it was a set of defective tires.then they told me because i had good use up to that point, that i don't get to have full-price replacement, but only partial credit.the tires have been perfectly maintained, and would last me at least another 3-4 years because of my light-driving habits, and i don't have the resource to replace all my tires, nor can i continue to drive the car in this condition, it is unsafe!
