NHTSA Complaint #10619355 — 2007 JEEP WRANGLER

PURCHASED GOODYEAR WRANGLER SR-A 255/55/17 A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO. ABOUT 3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE MY FRONT LEFT TIRES WAS FLAT AND UNREPAIRABLE. AT THAT TIME DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. BUT AS TIME WENT BY I NOTICED THAT ONCE I HIT SPEEDS OF ABT 50 MPH MY FRONT END STARTED TO SHAKE SEVERELY. I ASSUMED THAT I NEEDED A FRONT END ALIGNMENT OR BALANCING. HOWEVER COMING HOME SEVERAL DAYS AGO MY FRONT AND BACK RIGHT TIRES BLEW. LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING AT A LOW RATE OF SPEED AND WAS ABLE TO CONTROL MY VEHICLE AND NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE PASSING OR BEHIND ME. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DIFFERENT OUTCOME IF SO. I DECIDED TO DO WEB RESEARCH TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY SIMILAR ISSUES AND HAVE FOUND MANY WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I REALLY DO THINK GOODYEAR NEEDS TO REALLY LOOK INTO THIS. I REPLACE THE TIRES WITH ANOTHER BRAND AND NOT ONCE HAS MY FRONT END SHAKEN LIKE PREVIOUSLY. *TR
