The vehicle is less then 2 years old with 31748 miles. All 4 Goodyear fortera hl tires were showing visible cracking and dry rotting in between the treats & on sidewalls.there was a recall on these tires in 2015 but we were told our tires don't qualify for replacement. We had the tires replaced with an out of pocket expense of $411. GM refused to help us in anyway although this is considered a safety issue because the sidewall could blow out. I am aware of others that have had the same issue and we're also refused help by GM.

During a scheduled maintenance at my dealership, located in carrollton, Ohio the repair technician discovered that all four Goodyear fortura hl size 255/65R18 tires that were original on my vehicle, were cracking on the sidewall near the tires bead. I learned that this particular tire, the same make, model, size, and defect, was on a recall from Goodyear. My vehicle, a 2016 Chevy Traverse lt AWD was taken to the local Goodyear dealer. The dot number on my tires is 4bxmaror or dr. The dealer determined that my tires were manufactured after the Goodyear recall had expired. So the issue here is that the Goodyear tires on my car are having the same defects as the expired recall tires had. To me that means there are many Goodyear tires that are defective driving the roads. This presents a serious safety issue due to these defective tires blowing out at or near the cracking sidewalls. The miles on my car when the defect was discovered was 28,266. I ended up purchasing a set of cooper tires and was charged a pro-rated cost of $362.95. If I purchased the same Goodyear fortera hl tire, I would have paid a pro-rated cost of $608.I felt and still feel that Goodyear owes me a new set of tires at no cost due to having the same defective tires as the expired recall tires. I wrote a letter to the Goodyear tire & rubber company CEO, who passed it off to their customer service office who offered no remedy other than the pro-rated cost. In closing, the main issue here is that there are currently defective Goodyear fortera hl tires size 255/65R18, that are being driven on our roadways by unsuspecting consumers. There needs to be an immediate total recall on these tires to prevent potential loss of life.
