Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Had a tire blowout while on interstate. goodyear dealer inspected tire and determined that there was no cuts or punctures that caused the blowout.goodyear offered a discount on a new tire based on tread wear.goodyear dealers , however do not have the tire needed. i contacted goodyear and they said they are on back order and i should just but a used tire to use until tires are available.i don't want to use any used tires and i am now afraid of my other tires on any interstate driving.goodyear was very uncooperative to try to help me in any way except to say they don't have my particular tire. i would be willing to upgrade to a better tire and install a complete new set if they would consider their discout on the better tires. i feel that i have not been treated fairly as the tire defect was not any fault of mine...can your organization help me in any way? i have some more interstate trips to make and do not feel safe without having new tires installed.nd. *ak (tiresize: p275/60r17)
