Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: On 2 occasions (10/96/ and 8/00), i was informed by the dealer during the annual inspection, that there was a bubble on the inside of the tire, not visible to the eye. in october 1996, i had to replace the rim as well as the tire. in august, the dealer informed me that there was a bubble on the inside of the tire however i did not have to replace the rim but only the tire. upon calling goodyear, they wanted me to send the tires to them as they were out of warranty. the problem though is that it is the same problem (a bubble) with the same tire each with very little mileage on them. *ak( dot number: tire size: 185/65/r15 )
