NHTSA Complaint #11019584 — 2011 GMC SIERRA 2500

THREE OE (3) GOODYEAR WRANGLER TIRES, LT265/60 R20 HAVE BECOME DEFECTIVE, ALL IN THE SAME FASHION WITH SIDEWALL PROBLEMS, TWO WITH BULGING, ONE WITH AN AT SPEED BLOWOUT AT THE SIDEWALL. FIRST ONE, 1/22/16 WHILE DRIVING BUT STOPPED DUE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC AND ANOTHER MOTORIST POINTED OUT THE BULGE. INSTALLED SPARE, AT DESTINATION PURCHASED AT FULL PRICE 2 BRAND NEW TIRES IN ORDER TO HAVE MATCHING TREAD ON ALL TIRES. DEALER ALLEGED THERE MUST HAVE BEEN DAMAGE, SO THERE WAS NO WEAR ADJUSTMENT. SECOND ONE NOTED WHILE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY 2/15/17. CALLED GOODYEAR WHO REFERRED ME TO A LOCAL FACTORY STORE WHO PRO-RATED AN ADJUSTMENT AND I REC'D A NEW TIRE. THIRD ONE BLEW OUT AT TURNPIKE SPEED 8/16/17. NONE OF THESE TIRES WERE ANYWHERE NEAR THE END OF TREAD LIFE AT THE TIME OF THE PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN "OFF-ROAD" AND I DO NOT DRIVE AROUND HITTING OBJECTS WITH THE TIRES. I DO NOT WANT TO TURN OVER THE LATEST DEFECTIVE TIRE TO A DEALER UNTIL I HEAR FROM YOU IF AN INVESTIGATION IS IN ORDER; IT IS "EVIDENCE". I DID TAKE PHOTOS OF THE FIRST TWO TIRES AND WILL DO THE SAME WITH THE MOST RECENT ONE. THANK YOU.
