1 Tire Tread/belt problem

Failure Date: 01/18/2008

I purchased 4 tires from goodyear and with less than 22,000 miles on the car it began to shake when I reached a speed of around 60 mph. Six times in three months I took the car to goodyear on water st. In syracuse, NY and they rotated and balanced the tires. Still shaking I took it to my mechanic who drove the car and inspected the tires and three of them were defective. He replaced the tires for me and I took the old ones back to goodyear. They just looked at them, called akron, ohio and I received a phone call stating I could received a voucher for $139. 92 for a future purchase of tires. They were told by the manager that there was nothing wrong with the tires. Again, I feel the consumer is being taken advantage of, particularly a woman. I could have caused a severe accident and hurt myself or other people on the road.

2 Tire Tread/belt problem

Failure Date: 09/15/2005

Tread beginning to separate on 3 out of 4 tires. These are firestone fr 690 tires. I am in the process of replacing all four tires due to the significant tread separation. Firestone has offered a small credit to replace with same brand tires. I will probably not take the credit due to the fact that I am going to switch brands.

3 Tire Tread/belt problem

Failure Date: 06/05/2003

Original equipment tires on 2002 Honda Civic. With just under 16,000 miles, mostlt highway, the tire tread is worn off. The tires have been rotated 3 or 3 times, and inflation checked regularly.

4 Tire Tread/belt problem

Failure Date: 03/09/2003

I have 30,000 miles on my car and already my tire tread has worn down completely. I was under the impression that tires are supposed to last 50-70,000 miles? also, my front brake pads are already in need of replacing. I do mostly interstate driving and rarely use my brakes, what is the deal?.
