Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A USED 2001 DODGE DURANGO WITH GOODYEAR WRANGLER RTS P265/70R16 TIRES, THE SUV HAD APPROX. 42,000 MILES . SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE, ONE FRONT TIRE BEGAN TO LOSE AIR AND WOBBLE. AFTER INSPECTION BY THE DEALER WHO SOLD ME THE CAR, I WAS TOLD THAT IT APPEARED THE BELT WAS BROKEN AND THE FULL-SIZE SPARE WAS USED TO REPLACE THE TIRE. THIS SECOND TIRE SEEMS TO BE "DOING" THE SAME THING. IN ADDITION, I NOW HAVE A REAR TIRE THAT HAS A "FLAT SPOT" AND COORESPONDING SIDEWALL BULGE ON IT. THE CAR (AND I PRESUME, ORGINAL MANUFACTURER EQUIPMENT TIRES) HAVE APPROX. 50,000 MILES ON THEM. I WROTE TO GOODYEAR, VIA WEBSITE, ABOUT THIS CONDITION, BUT NO ONE HAS RESPONDED. *NM
