Tire Blowout problem #1

Tire blewout on highway for no apparent reason. Car had been serviced and tires rotated and checked several days earlier. A couple of tire dealers checked the tire and could find no evidence of road hazards. I still have the tire, but trying to prove it wasa structural defect I can see is going to be next to impossible. Cadillac covers all defective parts, but goodyear says you can't prove the tire was defective even if there is no evidence of a puncture or hitting something in the road! your input and help is appreciated. (dot number: 1 6-000-12 tiresize: 235/60-16).
