Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The left rear tire blew out on i 95 while traveling at approx. 70 mph. this caused the truck to sway back and forth from the left lane then back into the right lane several times. i was lucky that nobody was beside me at the time. when i pulled off the road i saw that the whole tread was gone off the tire. it bent up the quarter panel and ripped the tailpipe out of the muffler. the tread had hit some other cars and was about 1/4-1/2 a mile down the road. the tires all have large bulges of uneven treads. i called goodyear and told them the problem. they said they dont have any problems with these tires and any wear problems are probably the fault of my vehicle. they did say they want the blown tire and will replace it, but will not replace the others. so they are all in my garage waiting for a recall. they are dangerous. if you have any questions, call me at my work #. thank you. *ak (tiresize: 31/10.5/15)( dot number: tire size: 31/10.5/15 )
