Goodyear tire pre-mature blowouts/tread seperation

Can anyone with a Goodyear tire blowout/tread separation experience offer assistance on getting service and re-imbursement from Goodyear for tire replacement and damage to my rig? The tires on my 2011 Jayco are not dry rotted and have plenty of tread life remaining. I have only about 4,000 miles total on the tires over the life of the rig

Thanks in advance.

    They won't lift a finger until they receive and inspect the tire.
  • *Good* Goodyear: Save carcass - contact GY. Usually GY will replace & repair..:C

    (If you don't have carcass, two chances: slim & none)

    *Bad* Goodyear: Nothing for your time & trouble, and -of course- replacement is more of the same tires. Vicious circle..:(

    Good future plan: No more GY tires..;)

    Use the forum search feature for all the info you need on: tires, replacement of GY tires, tire brands, tire failures, GY Marathons (and other GY tire lines)..:W

  • Had a Goodyear Tire (G614) blow out back in 2010.....tore up the side of 5th wheel.

    Called Goodyear.......they opened a claim, made arrangements for old tire carcass to be picked up/shipped to them. Had all repairs and new tire paid for by Goodyear. But I had the blown-out tire that they wanted to inspect.

    Anyway......

    What's your deductible?
  • I found it easier to just turn into insurance.
  • go to goodyear.com look for a recall list. get all the info off your tire on paper might come in handy.
  • I went to a Goodyear dealer and they sent the trie in for inspection.

    On another ocassion I had to ship a BFG to Michelin. I think I got the number to call from a tire dealer.

    They paid for the tire, shipping and damage.
