I HAD A TIRE FAILURE WITH A SET OF GOOD YEAR EAGLES LS1. THE TIRE HAD FIVE TO SIX CRACKS IN THE INNER AND OUTER SIDE WALL OF THE TIRE CAUSING THE TIRE TO DEFLATE. INITIALLY I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS JUST ONE TIRE, BUT, IT ENDED UP BEING ALL FOUR TIRES. I TOOK THE TIRE IN TO GET ANOTHER ONE ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THE TIRES WERE FLAWED AND THAT I WOULD AND OR SHOULD REPLACE THEM AS THEY WERE NOW A SAFETY HAZARD. I ENDED UP HAVING TO REPLACE ALL FOUR TIRES. MY QUESTION IS, AT WHAT POINT DOES A TIRE BECOME FLAWED? AND WHO SHOULD BEAR THE COST OF REPLACEMENT. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO LOSE A LIFE BEFORE WE CAN MAKE THESE TIRE COMPANIES RESPONSIBLE? I CONTACTED GOOD YEAR AND I GOT THE SUBSTANDARD RESPONSE THAT I HAD GOT A FAIR PRICE FOR NEW TIRES, AFTER ALL, THEY DID PRORATE THEM. AGAIN, AT WHAT POINT IS A TIRE FLAWED? AND SHOULD THE CONSUMER HAVE TO BEAR THE COSTS FOR THESE CORPORATIONS? *TR
