Wow it's amazing that the tire was still holding air.
Actually, the tire failed on I-65 about 10 miles south of Louisville, KY. They managed to limp on in on what you see to the Goodyear Wingfoot truck tire center that's located just across from Ford's Louisville truck assembly plant where they got a replacement tire. The Wingfoot tire center opened the warranty claim with Goodyear and shipped the remnants of the failed tire directly to Goodyear's Akron, OH headquarters.

I can't say if Goodyear is standing behind the current Marathons, but they've paid for repairs and supplied new tires for past failures of Marathons (1996 Jayco Designer 3030RKSS) and G614 RSTs (2004 DRV Mobile Suites 36RE3). They just covered the failure of a G114 on our daughter and son-in-law's 2011 Mobile Suites 36TKSB3. IMHO, it's worth submitting the Marathon failure to Goodyear's system.

Do the better tires GY Michelin fail catastrophically like the Chinese brands?
NO
But some of the Michelin B.F.Goodrich Commercial T/A's do and BFG would not warranty mine. I understand that they have replaced them with a different construction.
GY is the only one that does and will pay for non road hazard damages that I know of.
I wonder of GY Marathons have the same warranty?

If anyone is thinking of upgrading, here's another website that I used when I upgraded our previous Mobile Suites from 16" G-rated Goodyear G614 RSTs to 17.5" Michelin XTAs. I've been extremely satisfied with their prices and service:

Not another website. The same one the OP listed. :B
But thanks for sharing the input. I look forward to dealing with them.
