NHTSA Complaint #10734691 — 2007 DAMON DAYBREAK

THIS YEAR ON OUR ANNUAL FAMILY VACATION WE HAD 2 TIRE FAILURES, ONE OCCURRED TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND WAS THE INNER REAR TIRE DRIVERS SIDE OF THE REAR DUAL WHEELS. THE OTHER FAILURE OCCURRED AFTER THE RV HAD BEEN PARKED FOR 20 MINUTES IN MY DRIVEWAY. THE TIRE EXPLODED AFTER THE RV HAD BEEN PARKED FOR OVER 20 MINUTES. UPON INSPECTION OF THE TIRE FAILURE IT WAS A INNER SIDEWALL (ENGINE FACING) BLOWOUT AT THE 11:00 O'CLOCK POSITION. I HAVE CONTACTED GOODYEAR ABOUT THE FAILURE AND THEY HAVE REFERRED ME TO A SERVICE CENTER FOR THE TIRE TO BE INSPECTED. THE TIRE SIZE IS 245/70R/19.5 THIS FAILURE IS IN ITS NATIVE STATE SINCE THE EXPLOSION. IT WOULD BE IN THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRANSPORTATION SAFETY ADMINISTRATION INTEREST TO HAVE THIS PARTICULAR ASSET IN TACT.
