| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I had a tire failure with a set of good year eagles ls1. the tire had five to six cracks in the inner and outer side wall of the tire causing the tire to deflate. initially i thought that it was just one tire, but, it ended up being all four tires. i took the tire in to get another one only to be told that the tires were flawed and that i would and or should replace them as they were now a safety hazard. i ended up having to replace all four tires. my question is, at what point does a tire become flawed? and who should bear the cost of replacement. does someone have to lose a life before we can make these tire companies responsible? i contacted good year and i got the substandard response that i had got a fair price for new tires, after all, they did prorate them. again, at what point is a tire flawed? and should the consumer have to bear the costs for these corporations? *tr |
