| Our daughter was operating our 2005 chrysler pacifica on i75 in florida when the a new right rear (1501 miles) goodyear integrity tire blew out causing the vehicle to spin and skid 300 feet before hitting guardrails with both the front and rear of the car. an eye witness confirmed the blowout which resulted in complete tread and sidewall separation to the attending florida highway patrol officer. our daughter and four year old grandson were transported by ambulance to the pasco regional hospital to determine the extent of their injuries. the four year old was not injured, however our daughter suffered neck and back trauma and is currently undergoing physical therapy three times per week. all four goodyear tires were purchased new in late march 2008 from an authorized goodyear dealer in tampa florida. *tr | |||

| My michelin energy plus lx4 tires have been losing air pressure at an extreme rate. we must put air in them at least once a week. took the car (2005 chrysler pacifica) to the only local michelin dealer. when we explained the problem, without even looking at the tire, technician said he already knew the problem- that it is very common. michelin tires react with aluminum rims (which my pacifica has) and cause oxidation. he said it doesn't matter where you live- that this is a common problem. to fix the problem, them put a new sealant between the tires and the rims- cost of approx. $80. he could not tell me if and/or when this would happen again. the local chrysler dealership seems to never have heard of this problem. my pacifica was taken into the dealership for an oil change and inspection 1 1/2 weeks after the tires were re-sealed by the michelin dealer. at that time, the tire pressure was checked and set to correct pressure (not sure if they were low at the time) as stated on my receipt. 1 week later, all tires are down at least 8 psi- 2 are down 12 psi. *tr | |||

| 2005 chrysler pacifica spare tire is not safe to use temporary. *ts the owners manual indicated that unequal tire size may cause failure of the power transfer unit and/or viscous coupling. the consumer feels that the doughnut spare is inadequate and request that the manufacturer provide him with a full size spare. the current spare is a 18 goodyear spare. the vehicle came equipped with 19 michelin tires. *nm *nm | |||
