| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: On january 28,2006 was driving from san antonio to houston tx during a mild rain as the rain became heavier my vehicle started to hydroplaning. i pulled to the outside lane and drove under 50 mph; after driving about 60 miles the rain quit and as the road dried out i was able to proceed on the houston. when i found a tire place opened i stopped to see if they could give me any feed back on why my car would hydroplane. i was told i had good tread but the outside shoulders of the tires were closed and would not let the access water out so that i was driving on water and had no traction on the road. it wasn't even a heavy rain i was driving in if it had of been a sudden hard rain how may cars would have wound up in an accident. my tires are goodyear integrity listed on my vehicle label as bsw all season tires. checking with one chrysler dealer about the tires i was informed i needed to get with the dealer i purchased the vehicle from. i spoke with the service department of ancira motor co and was told i needed to take my tire warranty with me to goodyear which i did and they tested the tires and said there was no defects and even though there were no groves in the should of the tires for the water to leave the center of the tire that it just meant that the water moved from the center more slowly than other tires not that they were not all season tires. the manager gave me the number for goodyear's customer service so i will call them monday. tires that are not safe for any driving weather should not be sold as if they are. after leaving goodyear i drove over to ancira and spoke with the service manager larry said that he could tell me how to go on the internet and see how the tires on my car was rated but said they could not give that type of information when you are purchasing a vehicle. |
