Read complaints for FORD FORD (1979)
I first bought a set of these tires in 1996. The ride was rough from the beginning, and i complained. The dealer told me they were "out of round but within goodyear specs". I continued to drive with a noticeable vibration because they would not replace the tires and i could not afford to replace them. In the fall of '98,one of the ires delaminated while driving at highway speed. I put on my spare and continued. I could not find a replacement locally, and continued to drive on my spare. Less than 3 weeks later, a second tire delaminated. I then drove to another town 50 miles away and told them of the problem, and insisted they replace all 4 tires, which they did at a prorated price.the second set rode with a slight vibration, but was better than the first. This gradually deteriorated, until i was driving with much vibration. Balancing would not help. In set. Of 2000 another tire delaminated. Goodyera no longe makes this tire, and sent me a refund. I then bought 2 michelins, using the mate to the bad tire as a spare. The ride improved some, but was still vibrating. In sept. Of 2001 i went in to get my wheels balanced, and they told me my front tires were delaminating[goodyears]. My mechanic confirmed this. I complained to goodyear, and they recently sent me a check for 1/2 of my purchase price. I have had 5 out of 8 of these tires delaminate. I believe the only reason the other 3 didnot, is because they were removed before theycould.(tiresize: 875r16.5 e)
