Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Goodyear 215-70-r15 allegra tires purchased at sams club purchased appx 2 yrs ago. appx. 14 months ago and then last week had 2 tires replaced due to belt seperations. mechanic at sams indicated that this particular type of tire is in his shop frequently due to belt failures. i have replaced 4 tires already and there is only 20,000 miles on the set. i am concerned due to the frequency with just myself and the indicated volume of the problem indicated by the sams club mechanic. the belt seperation did not cause an accident but did lead to control difficulty due to extreme vibration as all failures occured on the front. these tires were routinely rotated and balanced, kept at 35 p.s.i. and were not severly used or abused. the vehicle they were on is a 1995 ford windstar lx.*ak
