Consumer Description

I BOUGHT MY 2003 ECLIPSE GT IN MARCH OF 2004. AT APPROXIMATELY 30,000 MILES TWO BULGES SUDDENLYAPPEARED ON LEFT SIDE FRONT AND REAR TIRES (ONE BULGE ON EACH). WHEN THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE GOODYEAR RETAILER I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE RESULT OF RUNNING OVER POT HOLES. HOWEVER, THE POSITION OF THE BULGES DOESN'T SUGGEST SO. THE TIRES ARE GOODYEAR RSAS WHICH CAME STOCK ON THE CAR. THE TIRE SIZE IS P215/VR17.
