Galaviz auto repair & tires748 n arizona Ave, chandler, az 85225 according to them I got a deal, 4 brand new tires for my Dodge Ram 1500 for 400. Me being a female, not knowing much, didn't notice the brands were not even the same and size on two were not like the other two. They weren't brand new, used and supposedly a year warranty. The reason I went back was to check on the tire recall, owner and son said they don't do recalls or report and transactions with NHTSA. Have no records of tires sold at there shop. I was screwed over by an ex CO worker selling tires at his own acknowledgement. They couldn't help me with any thing that has to do with recalls.

I purchased 4 new vee rubber tires on 12/5/15. Since the purchase I have put less than 20,000 miles on the tires and have now experienced two complete blowouts in which the side wall of the tires appears to have disintegrated while driving. Had I been driving on a freeway or at a speed over 45 mph I definitely would have lost control of the vehicle which may have resulted in severe injury if not death.

Tires are wearing unevenly, all four of them. We noticed this at 20000 miles!! we noticed noise coming from the truck and when the dealership took the truck for road inspection they said is the tires. And of course, they are not responsible, that I have to go with goodyear CO. And make a claim. We used the truck to drive to and from work only! we do not take the truck off road or even to our neighbor country (mexico) because of road conditions there. The tires are wearing unevenly and make this terrible noise we have to live with. Who is responsible for this ? we take the truck every 3000 miles for oil change to the dealership, they will recommend tire rotation at 6000 miles or so, we do as they recommend, but now, no one is helping out! how come they did not notice this early wear in our tires?.

My tires on my truck are wearing extremely unevenly even with constant tire rotations. Good year tells me it is an issue with Dodge, Dodge tells me it is within goodyear. The tires only have 31,258 miles on them and have been showing excessive wear. I only drive the truck to & from work, do not take it off roading which would wear the tires even more. I was instructed by goodyear not to take the truck for long drives in the rain or up to the snow when it starts to snow here. After Dodge looked at them they referred me to goodyear saying the only thing they can think of is the truck has alot of its power on the right side, another excuse. I have researched and found that right around the 30,000 mile mark is when alot of other Dodge ram owners are experiencing this kind of problem with the tires. This is a huge safety concern for my family as well as other families on the road. If something were to happen who would be at fault ? OH yes the driver, not goodyear or Dodge even though this issue has been brought up to them. So the enjoyment of taking my family to play in the snow is compromised because when the tires were inspected by goodyear they feel it is an issue. I asked how many more miles might I have left on the tires and was informed maybe 3,000. Now I have looked online on goodyears website and the lowest mileage for the tires that I have is 50,000 miles for a warranty. So I am losing out on about 20,000 miles worth of tire tread. This is in regards to all 4 of the tires wearing unevenly "cupping. ".

I had two almost fatal accidents as the result of the good year wrangler hp tires I had on my 2001 Dodge truck. Good year had me send on each event the tires that created a blow out, for no reason at all, they even had me complete a full proper damage claim because they were settling on these tires and all the issues people have. My case was automatically denied, they told me that in both cases I ran over something, but admitted that they never looked at the tire, they didn't have time. So, the auto deny everyone, I guess because not enough people have died as the result to their faulty product (tires), I have replaced all my tires with michelins and have incurred an out of packet expense of $2500, for tires and damages. The money is not the issue; but more importantly that good year needs to recall the tires, or is the percent of deaths or injuries within their allowed threshold? who makes them accountable for a bad product that will kill and hurt more people, family and children? I don't know what it takes for someone to stand up and say to the large corps of the world that they need to be accountable and that they need and should recall these tires, not just provide small settlements for damages, but do something that will save lives,,, please let me know what I need to do to be heard,, people need to know the facts and dangers of these tires.

Traveling FL turnpike in palm beach county. Typical week-long heavy rain in may with standing water. Dodge Ram 1500 with goodyear wrangler hp 275/60r20" tires. I was driving approx 45 mph due to rain and standing water in a 65 mph zone of the middle lane when the tires lost traction and I hydroplaned. The truck began to fishtail. Being a professional driver of a fire truck I used proper corrective techniques to compensate and avoid rollover and avoided other vehicles. I crashed into the right safety guard rail. Crash caused damage to front bumper and both front/rear 1/4 panels. Afterwards I looked up the reviews of this tire and found multiple complaints of inadequate traction during wet conditions and similar experiences.

Operating vehicle on florida turnpike at 70 mph when I experienced a blowout to the right rear tire. My vehicle began to lose control, however I was able to recover. Reason for blowout: tread separation- defective tire - tire failure.

My 2006 Dodge ram has the goodyear wrangler hp 275/60r20 installed. My truck just turned 40k. My tires are always rotated and proper tire inflation. I noticed recently that my truck started vibrating. First it was minor then it finally is too much to bare. I had taken it in twice before thinking it was a balance weight issue and each time the tire stored removed or added a small amount of weight. There was a big difference coming back from a 1400 mile road trip recently. At first there was the usual small vibration, but at the end of this trip the whole truck shaking bad. I took the truck in for the 3rd time and come to find out the rear tire was finally showing signs of separation. I was told that I was very lucky that this tire did not separate during my trip. I plan on contacting goodyear, but from what I have read online they don't seem to care or will blame it on driving style. I have yet to find someone that has received a warranty or pro rated price for new tires. Dodge needs to stop putting these on the trucks or someone will get killed, like my family almost did.

Product quality defect- poor product quality of goodyear wrangler tires recently created unsafe driving conditions for myself, my family and other motorists. Due to the radial band separation issue in a goodyear wrangler hp tire (size p275/60/20) the tire created excessive bouncing and wobbling of the tire at speeds over 40 mph creating inability to control my vehicle on the highway. I had the tire replaced immediately (with a bridgestone tire) and the issue was resolved. When I contacted goodyear quality dept. They asked I have the tire inspected by a goodyear dealer, which I did, and the dealer confirmed the radials where /compromised/broken in numerous places. Goodyear did other a $45 rebate on my next goodyear tire purchase which I declined as I will not place my families safety and well being in their trust any longer nor will I be purchasing goodyear tires. The tire had approx 15000 miles on it with ~50-60% tread left. (confirmed by the goodyear dealer. ) no explanations or apologizes were offered by gy which displays their disturbing lack of business savvy. I have 3 vehicles in my household and will no longer support such business practices by purchasing unsafe products. I have seen several safety concerns with this tire on internet blogs but thought it best to officially post to NHTSA. I also observed information regarding product safety claims by the steelworkers union (link on your website) regarding the safety/quality of goodyear tires around the same time by vehicle was produced. (not sure if my tire was produced in the same factory) I would like a formal complaint issued to goodyear if feasible and/or at least acknowledgement of receipt. Thank you for your time. (goodyear claim number 1089986).

I had purchase 4 tires and only had traveled 5,000 miles . The company I bought them from did not tell me the warranty on the tires until one of them the belt separated I purchase them March 08 and in sept 09 is when it happened. I took it back to the company and they informed me that they only had a year warranty on the tires. They told me that I would have to purchase another one which this was a manufacture defect in the tire. And they told me that they would get with the supplier and see if they could get me credit on the tire. Still not hearing anything about the tire I had another one to separate on 12-19-09. I went and had all the tires and rims taking off of my truck and purchase new rims and tires from a different place and then I went back to the company where I had purchase the defective tires and showed them again that another separated he then wanted to get it and let the supplier see it and I told him not until I hear anything about the first one that he had sent back. He has had the 1st tire for almost 4 months and now he wants the rest I think not. I want a total refund of all my tires but he is talking about tread wear credit.
