| Description of the problem | 1) flat tire on nissan maxima 2004 car with 2003 manufactured good year eagle rs-a p245 45r18 96v tires.... 2) ties are defective an independent goodyear employee told me so, and told me they are unsafe to drive on and still would not replace them because they have not been recalled as of yet but offered a $100 off each tire, they are $300 tires.. The tires have 24k miles on them, the front tires are worse then the rear but all are the same. The tread still has at least half the tread if not more left... There is severe cracking and it is possible they could blow out on others and cause serious injury, i have pictures i can send if you send me a direct email address.. 3) i took the car to goodyear they said the tire is defected and unsafe to drive, but sent me on my way because i do not believe i should have to pay a dime for unsafe defective tires........ Someone will be killed driving on those tires.... They are a road hazard... *jb |
