What owners wrote

Was traveling on the highway about 55MPH and noticed that steering wheel and vehicle started shaking. Consumer stated that ridge inside of road inflated two rear tires, causing vehicle to go into a spin/vehicle flipped, and went into a enbankment. Airbags didn't go off, and the driver's side seatbelt didn't hold . The vehicle was totaled.

December 2001 Crash

On 12-17-04 my tires were rotated and balanced at discount tire co. This resulted in vibration at low speeds in my steering wheel. Discount rechecked the balancing, but found nothing wrong. Several days later I moved the l/f tire to the rear to see if the wheel might be the problem - the vibration stopped! On 12-23-04 I stopped by the local goodyear dealer to discuss the problem with them. It was made clear that all I wanted was a tire safety inspection at no expense to me.
