| Description of the problem | I have been experiencing problems with the goodyear eagle rs-a's that came on my 2004 nissan maxima. All four tires have been leaking air due to the sidewall cracks that have developed on each tire. Due to the fact that all four tires have developed these sidewall cracks and that multiple individuals have experienced this same problem leads me to the conclusion that this is a factory defect. Due to the concern of my family's safety, i have replaced all four tires with another brand of tires. *jb |
