I HAVE A 2006 SATURN ION, IT CAME STANDARD WITH GOODYEAR ASSURANCE TIRES. WITHIN 25 THOUSAND MILES, THE TIRES BEGAN TO BALLOON, BLISTER. I HAD ONE EXPLODE ON THE HIGHWAY, THE REMAINING 3 SOON BEGAN THE SAME PROCESS OF BLISTERING. I REPLACED ALL FOUR TIRES WITH THE SAME TYPE OF TIRE FROM GOODYEAR, ASSURANCE. ONCE AGAIN, WITHIN 25 THOUSAND MILES, THEY BEGAN THE SAME PROCESS, BALLOONING AND BLISTERING. I REPLACED ALL FOUR WITH ANOTHER TYPE OF TIRE FOR MY FAMILIES SAFETY. THE TIRES WERE REPLACED AT DISCOUNT TIRE COMPANY IN TYLER TEXAS, ON BROADWAY AVE. I TRIED TALKING WITH GOODYEAR, AND THEY WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE TIRES. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE TIRES, THEY ARE DEFECTIVE. I HAVE GONE THROUGH 8 TIRES. THE FIRST REPLACEMENT OCCURRED DECEMBER, 2006, THE SECOND RUN ON REPLACEMENTS WAS APRIL, 2008. *TR
