While traveling over the howard-franklin bridge, (this is a 6 month old 2001 Jeep Cherokee grand Laredo with 13000 miles) heading into tampa, Florida at a rate of 65 mph my driverside rear tire outer sidewall failed and instantly went flat and could have caused a fatal accident, not to mention, causing the Jeep to drop hard on the road with the rim, thereby damaging my wheel rim and rendering the tire useless. A Florida road Ranger assisted me and changed my tire with the spare. My tire did not hit any object nor did any object hit my tire. I contacted Goodyear and showed them the tire at their Goodyear tire center located at 7511 49th street, pinellas park, Florida 33782..(727) 547-8422. They would not replace the tire until I gave them my old tire to be shipped, at my expense, to corporate Goodyear's test labs. A little like the fox watching the hen house in my opinion. I got alot of bs from Goodyear and explainations about the tire failure that with a little common sense didn't add up. This tire is visually a defect from the looks of the tread seperation from the sidewall, just like I have seen on the news with the Firestone tires. The local Goodyear dealer didn't satisfy me and didn't even care about my needs so, I contacted Goodyear corporate by phone. They told me that the sidewall looked all shreded up because the tire rolled on itself deflated at the 65 mph speed as I coasted to at stop ( thank god I didn't panic and use my brakes) ( in heavy rush hour traffic on a four lane bridge traveling in the third lane ). if their theory about shreding is true, why didn't the interior sidewall get shreded? it looks like new. They're full of excuses. I want all of these tires off my truck. If I have my family riding in this vehicle I don't feel safe knowing what might occur. Please take a look at my tire. I know something is very wrong with the way it was constructed and came appart. Thank you. This is my second request in 4 months. Thomas a. nervina
