| Description of the problem | The part in question is good year tire wrangler sr- a p265/60r18 (m&s) dot # m7c4 exwr 4913. While traveling at 55mph on the expressway the tpms light came on. I was able to make to a dealership for repairs. Upon investigation from the dealership the tire in question could not be fixed so it was replaced. The tire looks to have split between the treads not caused by a road hazard. I'm concerned if this is a possible defect in the tire. I do have 4 tire of that kind on my vechile. I do have the tire in question in my possession. |
