Description of the problem | Vehicle running on highway at 60 mph and steering began to wobble. Checked front passenger side tires .. Noted a single bulge in the middle of tire treads. 2010 chevrolet silverado 1500 equipped with goodyear wrangler tires at/s size p265/70r17 tires. Estimated tire to be slightly over a year old with approx 25,000 miles on it. Still plenty of thread on it. Bought truck to goodyear auto service center to have tire inspected. Technician visually inspected tire at parking lot and claimed that fault was likely caused by tire hitting a pothole or curb. Technician refuse to provide any form of warranty for tire. A bulge in the middle of the tire thread isn't good. Never seen a tire bulging like this before. Looks like a manufacturing defect. Will bring it to another tire shop to have it replaced. It will not be another goodyear tire. |
