Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Sidewalls have split on all four tires which came new with the truck, two were so bad you could see the inner sidewall. the garage failed the truck on inspection, said the tires were a safety hazard. i did not misuse these tires no 4-wheeling, no heavy loads, no constant long distance travel; work was 10 miles one way. my mother spent a great deal of time on the phone with goodyear and sullivan tire (the name goodyear gave us as their authorized dealer). there was no satisfaction because goodyear and sullivan insisted they could only pro-rate the tread on a replacement. the tread was not the problem!!! all four tires should have been replaced free of charge because they were a safety hazard. my mother paid $431.71 for four new tires, which is less than $100 under the price sullivan would have charged for four new tires. the tires should have been free of charge! i see from the complaints already submitted that this is an on going problem with these tires. goodyear insisted they had received no other complaints on this tire. they obviously lied. dt
