Description of the problem | Out of four tires purchased from wal-mart i have had the radial belts separate on two of them---of course it made the car very wobbly and i was able to get it replaced but i did not know what was wrong---the tire was bulging by the time i got it to a repair place---i think someone should know about this and possibly investigate-it frightened me to know that two of four were defective and although wal-mart was very kind and replaced both (under warranty) i am still very concerned that goodrich may have the same problem as firestone---thank you. |
