Left rear tire failed and blew out at 70mph. The good thing is the tire deflated rapidly with no loss of control of the vehicle. On inspection of tire it was found that the inner side wall had a rectangular rip/patch from the rim to the tread. There was no debris or other road hazards when the tire failed. All four tires have less than 25000 miles on them.

Since the purchase of the vehicle, especially on the highway, there wa S vibration and shimmying when braking, . had the rotors turned, replaced, and turned again. In May 2004 found that all of the rotors were warped. In November 2004, they did find a very slight vibration, but they did nothing about it. Took vehicle to dealership 5 times, and is taking was back in next week. This resulted in replacing the tires early.

I called pitre Chrysler/Jeep service director following the blowout of my right rear tire and asked if he any knowledge of tire failures of this Goodyear tire. He said he had no knowledge of blowouts with Goodyear Wrangler. I told him I read an article about Wrangler tire failures a few months ago. He said I was mistaken and that even though the 2000 Jeep is under warranty there was nothing he could do for me. I find this suspect, especially coming from a person of his position at pitre Chrysler/Jeep. Please feel free to E-mail me or call if you have any information to the contrary. Thank you, rob petersen.( dot number: Tire size: P225/75R16 )
