Consumer Description

BOUGHT 4 NEW GOODYEAR VIVA 2 TIRES AT WALMART IN APPROXIMATELY 2014 SOMETIME. ACCORDING TO LOCAL TIRE SHOP THEY HAVE 2014 DATE CODES. VAN STARTED DEVELOPING A LOW SPEED WOBBLE WHEN DRIVING. FRONT L TIRE WAS LOW ON PRESSURE SO TOOK TO A LOCA SHOP TO HAVE IT CHECKED THINKING I JUST NEEDED A PATCH. WRONG! THE SHOP DISCOVERED A TREAD SEPARATION ON THE INSIDE SIDEWALL! LUCKILY I WAS NOT DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. AFTER COMING HERE AND READING ALL THE OTHER ALMOST IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS TO ME IT LOOKS LIKE THERE IS A TREND OF BULGING/POOR RIDE QUALITY/BLOWOUTS AND TREAD SEPARATION FROM THESE WALMART GOODYEARS. LUCKILY I ONLY MADE A 2 MILE ROUND TRIP FROM HOME TO A FRIENDS AND I WAS ABLE TO CATCH THIS BEFORE I HAD A BLOWOUT.
