“I bought a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 limited edition. I bought 4 new tires the day of the purchase. The TPMS-tire pressure monitoring system began failing a short time thereafter. The light in the dashboard flashed telling me my tire pressure was low on various tires. My wife was the sole driver of the Jeep and she was constantly calling telling me a tire was flat. She worked evening hours. I took the Jeep into les schwab for repair. They advised me the price for the sensors was more than the price of the vehicle. …”
NHTSA complaint #10664581, filed 2014-12, 7,000 miles“I own a both 2006 and a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee srt-on the 2007 model, the front left tire failed from tread separation during early october (tires were not very worn) - I had all four tires replaced. Unfortunately, the front left tire on my 2006 Jeep failed yesterday (11/30/2008) with approximately 29,000 miles on the odometer. In this most recent failure, about 2 inches of tread on the inner side separated and came completely off the tire. I have thus had identical tire failures on two separate vehicles equipped with the same oem (goodyear) tires. …”
NHTSA complaint #10250443, filed 2008-12, 29,000 miles“I own a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The vehicle came new from factory with goodyear tires: wrangler sr-a 245-65r-17. My wife was driving the vehicle in the highway and one of the rear tires blew out. Called goodyear and explained the problem. They created a file (#860902) and referred me to the nearest tire store near my home. An inspection of the tire by the store revealed no road hazard damage. The tire was a manufacturer defect. Goodyear refused to replace the tire and only offered a 56% reimbursement on the cost of the tire (not labor or installation). …”
NHTSA complaint #10169297, filed 2006-09, 13,000 miles“Less then 5k mileage, the tires began to ripple discovered upon local gas station inspection. Threads started coming threw on both right and left tires.”
NHTSA complaint #10468901, filed 2012-08, 42,000 miles“We bought a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee srt-8 and the front tires had been recently replaced so we weren't too concerned but when I did an oil change on sunday I noticed the right front tires tread was separating from the rest of the tire. This is our family vehicle so because I was worried about something happening to the tire and perhaps us we have not been able to use the vehicle. I ordered a new set of tires and will get them installed this weekend. I am keeping the old tires for proof of the damage.”
