 Tl- the contact owns a 2004 gmc yukon xl with hankook ventus as (n/a) tires. the dot number was 5m8hrah. the size was 305/50r/20xl. while driving approximately 50 mph the steering wheel started vibrating. the vehicle was taken to the tire shop where the tires were purchased. the technician stated the front passenger side tire had a bubble on the exterior and needed to be replaced due to tread separation. the tire was replaced. the contact experienced the failure a second time and was taken to the tire shop. the technicians stated the rear passenger side tire needed to be replaced due to tread separation. the contact stated he did not have the tire replaced because the manufacturer would not assist with the cost and he felt it was a safety defect. the approximate failure mileage was 122,000. ds

 I had a tire failure with a set of good year eagles ls1. the tire had five to six cracks in the inner and outer side wall of the tire causing the tire to deflate. initially i thought that it was just one tire, but, it ended up being all four tires. i took the tire in to get another one only to be told that the tires were flawed and that i would and or should replace them as they were now a safety hazard. i ended up having to replace all four tires. my question is, at what point does a tire become flawed? and who should bear the cost of replacement. does someone have to lose a life before we can make these tire companies responsible? i contacted good year and i got the substandard response that i had got a fair price for new tires, after all, they did prorate them. again, at what point is a tire flawed? and should the consumer have to bear the costs for these corporations? *tr
