| Description of the problem | I have a 2007 jeep grand cherokee srt8 and the front two tires have blown out with only 12k miles on them twice. Once at 12k and again at 24k. There was a recall issued in 2006 for 2006 srt8 models but nothing for the 2007 model year. These tire have been determined unsafe in 2006, but the same tires and problems are happening in 2007. I had 2 wheel alignments done and both were ok. It is a tire issue that keeps costing me money and the risk to me and my family everytime i drive the truck. The tire is a goodyear eagle rs-a 255-45-r20 runflat tire. |
