1 Tire Bubble problem

Failure Date: 05/17/2013

Four bubbles on the sidewall of my tire appeared - I took the tire to a goodyear dealer and he concluded that the tire was defective from the beginning when I bought it. It had 10,000 miles on the tire with original tire tread of 7/32 - it now has 6/32 tread. Goodyear gave me a $80. 00 discount on a new tire - I called them and asked for a 100% discount since the tire was defective from the beginning. I have three other tires on the truck all goodyear tires and it appears they could be doing the same thing. I also discovered that there was recall on goodyear wrangler tires having the same issues just not on my tire since it is much larger and not that popular.
