NHTSA Complaint #10749319 — 2013 RAM 1500

GOOD YEAR WRANGLER SR-A TIRES ON MY RAM 1500. I HAD A BLOW OUT OF THE DRIVERS REAR TIRE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. CALLED GOODYEAR AND THEY WANT ME TO HAVE THE TIRE INSPECTED. THIS IS THE SECOND TIRE THAT BLEW OUT IN THE PAST 5 MONTHS. THE LATEST TIME IT WAS THE DRIVERS FRONT TIRE THAT BLEW OUT AND CONTROL WAS LOST CAUSING ME TO STRIKE ANOTHER VEHICLE. I CALLED GOODYEAR WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL TIRE BUT NOT IN MY SIZE. THEY REQUESTED I SEND THE TIRE BACK TO THEM FOR INSPECTION WHICH I DID BUT THEY CLAIMED THE TIRE WAS LOST AND GAVE ME A GOOD FAITH CHECK TO COVER MY INSURANCE DEDUCTIBLE. WHEN I CALLED GOODYEAR AFTER YESTERDAY'S INCIDENT THEY TOLD ME THEY CAN CHECK THE REMAINING TIRES THAT ARE ON MY TRUCK BUT THEY MAY NOT REPLACE THEM TILL THEY BLOW OUT. I EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS WITH SAFETY BEING AN ISSUE AND THEY APOLOGIZED THAT I GET THAT WAY AND TOLD ME THEY WILL TRY AND DO THEIR BEST. I FEEL SINCE TWO OF THE FOUR TIRES BLEW OUT THEY SHOULD REPLACE ALL OF THEM AND ADMIT THERE'S A PROBLEM WITH THAT TIRE AND ADD IT TO THE RECALL.
