I HAVE GOODYEAR MARATHON ST 225/75/15 D TIRES ON BRAND NEW (MAY 2007) 2007 CARMATE 24 FOOT TRAILER. I DROVE THE TRAILER TO SALT LAKE CITY (SLC), BACK TO FREDERICK, MD, THAN BACK TO SLC. SO, WITH ABOUT 8,000 MILES (JULY 14 NOW) ON THE TIRES - I NOTICE "AIR BUBBLES" IN THE SIDEWALL JUST ABOVE THE RIM. I CALL LOCAL GOODYEAR DEALERS, AND NONE HAVE THE TIRES IN STOCK (I DO HEAR THOUGH THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE TIRES, SEVERAL NON GOODYEAR DEALERS TELL ME THAT THEY HAVE IMMEDIATELY TAKEN THESE TIRES OFF DUE TO ISSUES WITH THESE TIRES). I DECIDE TO PUT THE SPARE TIRE ON (ALSO A MARATHON) AND CONTINUE MY JOURNEY TO SIERRA VISTA, AZ. NEAR PRICE, AZ I NOTICE ANOTHER "AIR BUBBLE" IN A DIFFERENT TIRE. NOT WISHING TO TAKE A CHANCE ON A BLOW-OUT (NO GOOD SPARE TIRE LEFT) I BUY NEW TIRES (BIG O THIS TIME), BECAUSE THERE ARE NO MARATHON TIRES IN STOCK IN PRICE, AZ. ARRIVING IN SIERRA VISTA, AZ I TALK TO THE LOCAL GOODYEAR DEALERSHIP ABOUT THESE TIRES. HE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THESE TIRES, BUT CAN NOT HELP ME BECAUSE HE IS NOT A "AUTHORIZED" GOODYEAR DEALERSHIP ANY LONGER. DUE TO NEW JOB AND HOUSE HUNTING I LET THE REPLACEMENT ISSUE DROP FOR AWHILE. SEPTEMBER 20, 2007. I HAVE PERFOMED SEARCHES ON THE INTERNET, AND WHILE NOT SEEING THE ISSUE WITH "AIR BUBBLES" I SEE PLENTY OF ISSUES CONCERNING "BLOWOUTS" WITH THESE TIRES (WERE THERE AIR BUBBLES FIRST?). I CALL GOODYEAR HQ AND AM GIVEN A CASE NUMBER AND A TUCSON DEALERSHIP TO TAKE THE TIRES TOO. OVERALL

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
