Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I bought 4 new goodyear tracker 2 tires size p22570r16 from walmart that are warrantied for 50,000 miles. After about 10,000 I noticed some dry rot and cracking in between the treads. I took my vehicle back to walmart and showed them. The tire manager said he's seen a lot of this with these tires but said they had to contact goodyear before anything could be done. The next day the store manager called me back and said they spoke with goodyear and there is nothing that can be done. In my opinion this is a manufacturer defect and poses a safety hazard. …”

We ended up going off the road on to a grassy median where we hit an incline, went airborne and then landed motor first and rolled for a good bit before the vehicle came to a stop. The airbags never deployed and from what the witnesses said, it seemed to have all started with the smoking tire. …”
