problem #1

Jan 022007

Dakota 4WD 8-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 41,460 miles
Sidewall failure of Goodyear Wrangler 265/70R17 rt/S tire. While driving 70 mph, the sidewall of tire blew out. The tire had only 41000 miles of mostly highway driving. Tread wear was very even with no uneven wear of any kind. I had stopped for gas only 7 miles before the failure, and inflation of tire appeared normal.
