Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 DODGE DURANGO EQUIPPED WITH GOODYEAR TRACKER 2 TIRES, SIZE: P235/70/R16 (NA). WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE REAR PASSENGER TIRE BLEW OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT ALL FOUR TIRES WERE CORRODED. THE TWO REAR TIRES WERE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000 AND THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000.
WAS DRIVING AT LOW RATE OF SPEED AND THE SPARE TIRE FELL FROM UNDER DURANGO THE CABLE THAT HOLDS IT IN PLACE JUST BROKE. HAD I BEEN ON BUSY HIGHWAY AT 55 TO 65 MPH PEOPLE COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF SAFETY HOLDING TIRE BESIDES JUST THE LITTLE CABLE. *TR
HAD TO MAKE A SUDDEN STOP AND ABS SYSTEM WAS DANGEROUSLY SLOW TO ENGAGE, RELEASE AND RE-ENGAGE. BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND BARELY STOPPED BEFORE HITTING VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. HAVE REPLACE ALL CALIPERS AND PADS BOTH FRONT AND BACK. STILL HAVING PROBLEMS ...I DRIVE DAILY BACK AND FORTH TO WORK AND MOST OF THE TIME I HAVE TO START BRAKING WAY BEFORE I GET TO A STOP. *TR
THE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL DETACHED FROM OUR 2002 DODGE DURANGO. STEERING WAS THEN UNRESPONSIVE. WE COLLIDED WITH CENTER CEMENT WALL AND OVERTURNED 2-3 TIMES. *TR
I BOUGHT 4 NEW PIRELLI P400 TOURING TIRES AT A DISCOUNT TIRE STORE IN VENTURA COUNTY CALIF ABOUT 3 OR 4 YEARS AGO. ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO ONE OF THE TIRES HAD A TREAD SEPARATION. I JUST GOT BACK FROM THE TIRE DEALER AND ONE MORE OF THE 4 TIRES HAS A TREAD SEPARATION. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 35 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A SINGLE ONE BEFORE. IS THIS BAD LUCK OR ARE THESE BAD TIRES. *AK
HAVE HAD NUMEROUS TREAD BREAKAGES, THE TIRE TREAD IS FINE, DEALER STATED ALL TIRES ARE DRY ROTTED. *JB
DT: THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO BALANCED THE WHEELS, TWO WEEKS LATER THE VIBRATION REOCCURRED. THE CONTACT FOUND THAT THE NUT HOLING THE HUB ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE WAS LOOSE. THE DEALER HAS BEEN ALERTED. UPDATED 07/28/06. *JB
WE WERE DRIVING APPROX. 70MPH ON INTERSTATE 20 IN GEORGIA NEAR GREENSBORO EXIT. THE TREAD SEPARATED FROM OUR LEFT REAR TIRE AND SENT US OUT OF CONTROL ON THE INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. THIS WAS AT 5:30 P.M. ON FRIDAY AUGUST 19, 2005 IN BUSY TRAFFIC.WE WERE HEADED ACROSS THE MEDIAN WHEN MY HUSBAND JERKED THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AND WE HIT THE GUARD RAIL ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WE BOUNCED BACK INTO TRAFFIC AND HE SWERVED AGAIN TO THE RIGHT AND WE HIT THE GUARD RAIL AGAIN AND CAME TO A STOP. THIS IS THE MOST HORRIFIC EXPERIENCE OF OUR LIVES. MY 11 YEAR OLD HAS WHIPLASH AND BAD HEADACHES. I HAVE KNEE PROBLEMS AND ALL OF US HAVE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA ISSUES. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS VERY CLOSELY. I NOTICED OTHER COMPLAINTS HERE IN THIS WEBSITE. THEY ARE P245/75R16 LONG TRAIL TA.
I'M DRIVING A 2002 DODGE DURANGO. MY CAR PULLED TO THE RIGHT, I GOT A TIRE ROTATION AND NOW IT'S PULLING TO THE LEFT. I SAW IN THE NEWS THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE FRONT UPPER JOINT BALL, SO THAT COULD HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH MY PROBLEM. THE TIRES ARE FINE.*AK
THE REAR ALUMINUM RIM WAS LEAKING AIR FROM INSIDE TO OUTSIDE. DEALER STATED NEVER SEEN BEFORE, AND THE RIM HAD ONE YEAR WARRANTY.*AK
I HAD A GOODYEAR WRANGLET TIRE FAILURE AT HIGHWAY SPEED. WITHOUT NOTICE THE TREAD SEPARATED FROM THE SIDEWALL CAUSING AN OUT OF CONTROL CONDITION. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO GET THE 2002 DODGE DURANGO STOPPED SAFELY. I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE THE TREAD TOTALLY SEPARATE FROM THE SIDEWALL (3 TOTAL PCS 1 EA SIDEWALLS AND 1 TREAD). I WENT TO GOODYEAR THEY SAID I PICKED UP A NAIL OR SOMETHING CAUSING A FLAT. I'M SORRY BUT I HAVE HAD FLATS IN THE PAST. WHEN YOU PICK UP SOMETHING AND GET A FLAT YOU LOOSE AIR PRESSURE AND ARE ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND FIX TIRE, NOT EXPLODE. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE OHIO ATTY. GENERAL WHO PASSED IT TO THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU. THEY SAID THEY ARE JUST A MIDDLE MAN WITHOUT POWER TO RESOLVE. AT THIS POINT I WANT TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST GOODYEAR TIRE. I WOULD LIKE 4 DIFFERENT TIRES I WOULD ALSO BE WILLING TO PAY FOR USED PORTION OF TIRES ( JUST WHAT IS USED NOT 75% GOODYEAR STD). WHEN THE TIRE EXPLODED IT ALSO CAUSED SOME MINOR DAMAGE I WOULD LIKE FIXED. I DO HAVE THE TIRE IN MY POSSESSION AND I AM ABLE TO SUPPLY ANYTHING YOU MIGHT NEED. I.E. TIRE, PICTURES. *LA
