Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I had a tie failure on a goodrich p225/70-r14 m&s tire. the sidewall split on the tire without warning. the tire was taken to the dealer who examined it and said that the sidewall failure was due to some sort of manufacturing defect. when the other tires were examined, one of them was found to have a sidewall crack that had not yet gotten all the way thru the sidewall. the tire that failed did so at low speed so there was no wreck, but a sidewall failure at road speed could have led to a serious accident. *jb
