“While driving, the tires valves came off. The right front and both rear tire valves tips blew off during an air pressure check. The valve core broke off inside the valve which caused the failure.”

NHTSA complaint #10038223, filed 2003-11, 14,000 miles

“Tires on my Aztek squeek. I brought to dealership. Dealer stated that this was a common problem on prior year grandams. There are no service bulletins on this problem. To further explain problem....tire beads rub on rim causing a squeeking noise. This is associated with the tire brand....goodyear eagle rs-a. I am fighting with the Pontiac dealer and Pontiac customer service. They may replace the front tires only...if Pontiac approves. I was told by service at the car dealership that this will temporarily correct the problem until tires are rotated. …”
