| Description of the problem | I notice a few days ago that 3 out of 4 tires on my nissan maxima 2004 have developed cracks on the side walls. After doing some research on the internet i came across numerous complaints about the same thing. I strongly believe that these tires are defective and further investigation by the nhtsa is required. Lets not wait for someone to get killed before action is taken. The tires are manufactured by goodyear. The model of the tires are eagle rs-a p245/45 r18. *nm |
