Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2003 dodge durango. in dec. 2006 the original tires walls started to separate from the tread to the point that it was a complete ring around the tire showing the treads. i had to pay the difference of tread wear to replace the tires after arguing with a goodyear dealer. on aug. 3 2007, i was riding on 495 doing the 65 mile speed limit when the tire started to bubble, smoke and then proceed to shred. i took the vehicle to a goodyear dealer who started to refuse to replace the tire at their cost because he said the replacement tire was replaced with the same recalled/defective tire. i now have 5 tires that are starting to have little blisters all over the wall of the tires. i am in no position to pay to replace these tires with another kind or brand. i want these tires replaced with something that is not going to kill us one day. or give me the money to buy a different brand. *jb
