2007 Chevrolet Impala Tires Problems

The complaint references an attached document with details about a tire issue, but the specific problem is not described in the summary provided. Without knowing what the tire problem is, it's difficult to determine what repair or replacement might be needed.

BOUGHT THE CAR JAN 2012. CAR HAS 31,000 MI. THE INSIDE OF REAR TIRES ARE WEARING OUT. HAD CAR ALIGNED MECHANIC SAYS TIRES NEED REPLACED. IT LOOKS TO ME BY ALL OF THE REPORTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE IS DEFINITELY A MECHANICAL ISSUE HERE. MAYBE NHTSA SHOULD CHECK THIS OUT. *TR

THE TIRES ARE WEARING TERRIBLY. THIS SEEMS TO BE A ALIGNMENT OR SUSPENSION PROBLEM BECAUSE THE TIRES WEAR ON THE INSIDE . THERE HAS NEVER BEEN AN ACCIDENT IN THIS CAR. THE REAR TIRES SEEM TO BE THE ISSUE. ABOUT A YEAR AND 1/2 AGO, I BOUGHT VERY EXPENSIVE 80,000 MILE TIRES TOP OF THE LINE UNKNOWINGLY THAT THERE WAS A DEFECT. THE TIRES WERE COMPLETELY TRASHED- THE WIRES WERE STICKING OUT OF THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE WHEN I BROUGHT THEM INTO MY TIRE DEALERSHIP. THE MANAGER THERE TOLD ME TO CHECK ON A POSSIBLE RECALL BECAUSE HE SEES THIS HAPPENING WITH ALL THE 2007 CHEVY IMPALAS THAT HE WORKS ON. I AM AFRAID THAT IT COULD CAUSE A ACCIDENT OR WORSE..... *TR

WHEN PURCHASED, THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED REAR TIRE TREAD WEAR ON THE INSIDE OF THE REAR TIRES ONLY. WE BOUGHT NEW TIRES IN 2011 AND HAD THE VEHICLE BALANCED AND ALIGNED. IN JULY 2013, WE FIND THAT WE NEED TO REPLACE OUR 70,000 MILE TIRES (DRIVEN 20,000 MILES IN THAT TWO YEARS) BECAUSE OF REAR WEAR TO THE INSIDE OF THE REAR TIRES. CERTIFIED CHEVY DEALER SAYS NOTHING WRONG WITH CAR...TIRE COMPANY BLAMES MECHANICAL PROBLEMS...NO HELP FROM CHEVY AS THEY INDICATE THEY STAND BY THE CERTIFIED MECHANICS. IN READING HISTORIES ON THIS VEHICLE, IT APPEARS THAT SOME 2007 MODELS HAVE HAD REPLACEMENT PARTS ISSUED BY CHEVY, BUT NOT ANY VEHICLE NOT USED FOR PERSONAL USAGE. IT SEEMS TO BE A SIGNIFICANT ISSUE AS THE TIRE WEAR COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

I BOUGHT THIS CAR USED 9 MONTHS AGO AND PUT NEW TIRES ON IT, ONE OF THE REAR TIRES BLEW OUT ON THE INSIDE WHERE IT WAS WORN DOWN THE TO STEEL AND THE OTHER IS DOWN TO SHOWING STEEL AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS WELL. IT IS ONLY THE INSIDE OF THE REAR TIRES AND IT NOT VISIBLE WHEN APPROACHING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A RECALL ON "POLICE" IMPALA'S BUT NOT THE STANDARD IMPALA BUT FROM A SHORT SEARCH ON THE INTERNET THIS SEEMS TO BE A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM. *TR

TIRES BALD AT 33,428 MILES & REPLACED REPLACED ANOTHER TIRE 7/2011 AROUND 52,000 MILES THREE OTHERS ARE WITHIN 1 OR 2 /32 ND OF BEING WORN OUT AGAIN AT 56,056. *TR

MY 2007 CHEVROLET IMPALA WAS RECENTLY IN CHEVROLET SHOP FOR 30,000 MILES MAINTENANCE. I WAS SHOCKED WHEN TOLD I NEEDED TIRES. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND DRIVE TO AND FROM WORK AND AN OCCASIONAL WEEKEND TRIP. I HAVE MY TIRES ROTATED EVERY 10,000 MILES. WHAT GIVES? *TR

TIRES COMPLETELY WORN AT 23,000 MILES DEALER SAID BECAUSE NOT ROTATED PROPERLY ($500 FOR NEW TIRE)I ROTATED EVERY 7000 MILES THEY FAILED AT 61,209 MILES PUT ON FOUR NEW TIRES (3RD SET ANOTHER $470) AND ROTATED EVERY 5000 DEALER SAID POOR CHOICE OF TIRES INSTALLED GOODYEAR PREMIUM TIRE NEXT SET WENT IN 20000 MILES WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE EVERY YEAR NO ADJUSTMENTS NEEDED, LAST SET OF TIRES NOW WORN AT MILEAGE 83,300. I HAVE HAD 15 NEW CARS DURING MY LIFETIME AND NEVER HAVE I ENCOUNTERED THE PREMATURE WEAR I HAVE ON THIS IMPALA. DRIVING ALL HIGHWAY MILES I DO NOT SPEED OR CORNER FAST I ROTATE TIRES CHECK AIR PRESSURE IN ADDITION TO TPMS SYSTEM WHY AM I SEEING TIRE FAILURE ON THREE DIFFERENT BRANDS OF PREMIUM TIRE? *TR

TIRES WEAR UNEVENLY AND PREMATURELY WITH POSSIBILITY OF UNEXPECTED BLOW-OUT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. *TR

CAR PURCHASED USED WITH NEW TIRES IN MARCH OF 2009. IN APRIL OF 2010 REAR TIRES HAD SEVERE WEAR ON INSIDE TREAD THAT CAUSED BELTS TO SHOW. FOUR NEW TIRES WERE INSTALLED AND A FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT WAS DONE. 11 MONTHS LATER REAR TIRES SHOWED THE SAME WEAR, INSIDE OF TIRE. WAS TOLD THERE WAS A SAFETY BULLETIN FROM GM BUT DIDN'T COVER MY CAR SINCE IT WAS NOT A POLICE VERSION. WAS TOLD BY DEALERSHIP THAT GM KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAS COME OUT WITH A CAMBER KIT TO FIX PROBLEM BUT I HAD TO PURCHASE IT AND HAVE IT INSTALLED. WHEN ASKED WHY IF IT WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT WITH THE VEHICLE CAUSING PREMATURE TIRE WEAR I WAS HAVING TO PAY FOR IT WAS BRUSHED OFF. CALLED CHEVROLET AND FILED A FORMAL COMPLAINT REGARDING THE MATTER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A MAINTENANCE ISSUE AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. CHEVY KNOWS THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR/FIX PROBLEM AND IS INSTEAD PUSHING THIS OFF ON THE CONSUMER. EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AND I GUESS PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE FOR ACTION TO BE TAKEN. *TR

2007 CHEVY IMPALA ABSOLUTELY SUCKS ON ANY AMOUNT OF SNOW. REAR END FISHTAILS LEFT AND RIGHT AS IF IT HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN. ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND UNSAFE!! *TR

THIS INVOLVES A CONTINUED REAR TIRE ISSUE WITH MY 2007 CHEVY IMPALA LTZ THAT HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED DESPITE ENCOUNTERS WITH DEALERS & NATIONAL TIRE ALIGNMENT SPECIALISTS 12/06: PURCHASED CAR NEW, CAME WITH GOODYEAR EAGLE LS2 RADIALS. 3/08: ONE TIRE BLEW IN CHARLOTTE, NC. AT JUST TIRES, THEY POINTED OUT THAT BOTH REAR TIRES INCLUDING THE ONE THAT BLEW HAD SIGNIFICANT SIGNS OF WEAR, REPLACED BOTH WITH LS2 RADIALS. THE PROBLEM WAS CHALKED IT UP TO ALIGNMENT ISSUES THAT COULD'VE STARTED FROM THE FACTORY. 11/08: AFTER MORE INCIDENTS OF LOW REAR TIRE PRESSURE, TOOK CAR INTO LOCAL JUST TIRES. TIRED OF CONTINUED ISSUES, I DECIDE TO GET TOP OF THE LINE TIRES FROM THEM (GOODYEAR ASSURANCE TRIPLETRED) FOR JUST UNDER $900. 9/09: TIRE KEPT LOSING PRESSURE, TOOK CAR INTO LOCAL JUST TIRES. TOLD TIRES WERE NOT ONLY ONCE AGAIN OUT OF ALIGNMENT, BUT REAR TIRES AGAIN NEEDED REPLACEMENT (IN A MANNER NOT COVERED BY ROAD HAZARD PLAN) FOR $507 WITH TREADS SEVERELY WORN DOWN. THE PROBLEM WAS AGAIN CHALKED UP TO ALIGNMENT ISSUES, THOUGH THEY ALIGNED THE TIRES IN 11/08. 6/10: RANDOMLY CHECK TREADS ON MY TOP-LINE TIRES. COMPLETELY FINE IN FRONT, BUT WORN DOWN CONSIDERABLY ON BOTH REAR TIRES. I DRIVE ONLY CITY STREETS & HAD DRIVEN LESS THAN 12,000 MILES SINCE BUYING 4 NEW TIRES. RESEARCH UNCOVERS A PLETHORA OF REAR-END ALIGNMENT ISSUES ON 2007 CHEVY IMPALAS, INCLUDING A SPECIFIC IDENTIFIED ISSUE: HTTP://FLEETLEADER.PHH.COM/RECALLS/2008/RECALLSJULY2008.PDF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROGRAM #08032 - UNEVEN POLICE CAR REAR TIRE WEAR OBVIOUSLY, THIS EXTENDED TO COMMERCIAL IMPALAS & EXPLAINS WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING. WHEN CALLING PALLONE CHEVROLET, THE SERVICE REP FLATLY DISMISSES THE TALK OF THE POLICE RECALL, SAYING THAT THE SPINDLE ROD PARTS INVOLVED ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. (LATER CHECKING INDICATES THE PARTS ARE EXACTLY THE SAME ON BOTH THE POLICE AND COMMERCIAL VEHICLES.) I'M TOLD THAT THE ONLY WAY THEY CAN HELP IS TO CHECK ALIGNMENT, AS IF NOTHING ELSE COULD BE CAUSING THE PROBLEM. *TR

TREAD SEPARATED FROM TIRE, LOSS OF AIR. THIRD TIRE OF THIS SAME MAKE AND MODEL TO DO THIS. *TR

I PURCHASED EAGLE F1 (235/50ZR18) TIRES FROM THE CORPORATE GOODYEAR STORE IN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA ON APRIL 3, 2008. IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR, FOUR TIRES WERE REPLACED DUE TO CUPPING. I RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND DISCOVERED OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT EAGLE F1 CUPPING ISSUES. NOW, TWO ADDITIONAL EAGLE F1 TIRES HAVE CUPPED. I HAVE PAID A PRORATED COST FOR FOUR ADDITIONAL TIRES, NOW TWO ADDITIONAL TIRES HAVE CUPPED. I DISCOVERED CUSTOMERS WHO PURCHASED GOODYEAR EAGLE F1 TIRES FROM TIRE RACK RECEIVED FOUR NEW TIRES AT NO COST PLUS A $100 PER TIRE PAYMENT TO OFFSET TIRE MOUNTING, FREIGHT AND BALANCING. TO DATE, I HAVE SPENT $1,995.99 FOR EIGHT EAGLE F1 TIRES WITH CUPPING ISSUES. GOODYEAR OFFERED TO REPLACE THE FOUR EAGLE F1S CURRENTLY ON MY CAR WITH FOUR NON EAGLE F1 TIRES FOR $722.00. GOODYEAR DENIES A TIRE RECALL. THE MANAGER INDICATED THE EAGLE F1S AS ONE OF GOODYEARS BEST TIRES, HOWEVER, THEY ARE NO LONGER ON DISPLAY IN HIS STORE. GOODYEAR HAS YET TO OFFER ADEQUATE COMPENSATION BASED ON THAT RECEIVED BY CUSTOMERS OF TIRE RACK, WHICH IS NOT A GOODYEAR CORPORATE STORE. *TR

I AM NOW BUYING THE 3RD SET OF REAR TIRES IN LESS THAN A YEAR. THE INSIDE TREAD WEARS DOWN TO THE WIRES EVERY 13-16,000 MILES. THE VIN ON MY CAR FALLS WITHIN THE VIN'S LISTED ON GM TSB 8032, HOWEVER THIS CAR IS NOT A POLICE CAR. GM STATES THAT I MUST BE HITTING A POTHOLE CAUSING ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS. I MUST BE HITTING THE SAME POTHOLE AT THE SAME MILEAGE ALL 3 TIMES AND IT ONLY AFFECTS THE REAR TIRES. THERE IS EXTENSIVE ANECDOTAL REFERENCES TO THIS PROBLEM ON NUMEROUS CAR COMPLAINT WEBSITES, INCLUDING NHTSA. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY HURT IF GM IS ALLOWED TO IGNORE THIS PROBLEM. GM'S ONLY SOLUTION IS TO SELL ME ALIGNMENTS AND TIRES SINCE IT IS "MY FAULT" AND EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM IS IDENTICAL TO THE ISSUE NOTED BY GM IN TSB 8032, IT CAN'T POSSIBLY BE RELATED SINCE THE OTHER IDENTICAL PROBLEM ONLY HAPPENS ON POLICE AND GOVERNMENT CARS TO WHICH GM SELLS A LOT OF CARS. THE EVERYDAY INDIVIDUAL DOES NOT HAVE THE COMPLAINING POWER OF A LARGE BULK PURCHASER. *TR

THE TIRES ON MY 2007 CHEVY IMPALA WEAR ON THE INSIDE AND NOT ON THE CENTER OR OUTSIDE. *TR

TIRES WEARING ON INSIDE TREAD OF ALL FOUR TIRES. *TR

BACK END OF 2007 CHEVY IMPALA SLIPS ON WATER AND SNOW, FEELS LIKE I'M ON AN ICE RINK. NEVER FELT THIS IN THE 32 YEARS DRIVING CARS. THE TIRES WEAR ON THE INSIDE AND CAMBER LOOKS WAY OFF. *TR

WE PURCHASED OUR 2007 CHEVY IMPALA BRAND NEW JANUARY 07. SINCE THEN WITHIN A YEAR WE HAVE ALREADY REPLACED 2 TIRES THAT WERE BARE ON THE OUTSIDE PART OF THE TIRE. THE TIRE MONITOR SERVICE ALWAYS POPS ON THE DISPLAY SAYING TIRE PRESSURE OFF ALMOST DAILY. WE'VE TAKEN IT BACK TO OUR CHEVY DEALERSHIP ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS FOR THEM TO CHECK. THEY HAVE RE-SET THIS MONITORING THING SEVERAL TIMES, RE-ALIGNED THE CAR, REPLACED 2 TIRES (AT OUR EXPENSE). RIGHT AFTER THIS LAST TIME WE TOOK IT IN, THE NEXT DAY THE WARNING POPPED UP SAYING RIGHT REAR TIRE PRESSURE WAS AT 58!, I THOUGHT MY TIRE WAS GOING TO BLOW UP. PARKED IT TO GO INTO BUSINESS, WITHIN ABOUT 20 MIN CAME OUT AND STARTED AND TIRE WAS NORMAL? SEVERAL TIMES THE LIGHT FLASHES "TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM SERVICE SOON" IT RIDES VERY BUMPY EVEN AFTER REPLACING BAD TIRES AND RE-ALIGNING. WE HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR IN OVER AND OVER AND STILL NO RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. I'M SORRY BUT THIS IS ONE OUT OF SEVERAL GM VEHICLES WE'VE HAD, AND GM IS TERRIBLE AT TAKING CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS WHEN IT COMES TO PROBLEMS. THIS CAR HAS 34,000 MILES ON IT, WARRANTY ENDING SOON, WE ARE NOW TRYING TO GET RID OF IT BECAUSE OF THE PROBLEMS ALREADY WITH THE TIRES, ETC. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR AND CONSTANTLY THE TIRE MONITOR FLASHES PRETTY MUCH EVERY DAY, THEN SHUT IT OFF, SOMETIMES IT GOES OFF, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE, NOR DO I FEEL THIS IS A RELIABLE VEHICLE ON A LONG ROAD TRIP. *TR

VIBRATION AND PULLING ON HIGHWAY IN SPEEDS ABOVE 60MPH. HAD TIRES ROTATED/BALANCED AND NUMEROUS ALIGNMENTS PERFORMED WITHOUT RESOLUTION. THIRD PARTY INSPECTED TIRES AND FOUND "TREAD SEPARATION" ON 3 OF THE 4 TIRES. TIRES EXHIBITED THESE PROBLEMS SINCE ABOUT 29000 MILES AND WERE REPLACED AT 36000. *TR

WHEN IT RAINS THE FRONT WHEEL WELLS ARE EXTREMELY LOUD. IT OCCURRED EVERYTIME IT RAINS ONCE THE TIRES WERE WORN DOWN. I WENT BACK TO THE PURCHASE PLACE AND HAD THEIR MECHANICS LOOK AT IT AND THEN I TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT MECHANIC NEITHER OF WHICH FOUND ANYTHING. I HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT TIRES AFTER 6 MONTHS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE AND THE REAR TIRES 3 MONTHS LATER. *TR

BOUGHT MY 2007 IMPALA AT LOCAL DEALERSHIP. WAS A RENTAL WITH 12,000 MILES ON IT. ALWAYS HAD A BUMPY RIDE AND IT PULLED A BIT TO THE LEFT. AT A RECENT OIL CHANGE, I ASKED FOR THE TIRES TO BE ROTATED AS IT NOW HAD ABOUT 24,000 MILES. GUY AT OIL PLACE SAID I SHOULDN'T ROTATE THEM SINCE THE BETTER OF THE 4 TIRES WERE IN THE FRONT ALREADY AND WITH WINTER COMING, WAS BEST TO LEAVE THEM AS THEY WERE. SAID THEY ARE WEARING ON THE INSIDES OF THE REAR TIRES, DOWN TO THE STEEL BELTS. I TOOK IT TO THE CHEVY DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT. THEY INDICATED THEY HAD ONE OTHER COMPLAINT LIKE THIS. OFFERED A 4-TIRE ALIGNMENT THAT THEY WOULD COVER. THIS WAS NOT COVERED BY GM WARRANTY (WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UP TO 7,000 MILES). THEY THEN QUOTED ME FOR 2 NEW TIRES TO REPLACE THE REAR TIRES. AFTER SOME DISCUSSION, THEY WERE ABLE TO GET THEIR GM REPRESENTATIVE TO COVER PART OF THE COST OF THE 2 NEW TIRES AND THE DEALERSHIP COVERED THE REST. I WAS GIVEN A LOANER CAR FOR A NIGHT ALSO. DEALERSHIP IS FANTASTIC. THIS IS THE 4TH CAR I HAD PURCHASED FROM THEM AND THEY HAVE GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE. GM ON THE OTHER HAND HAS A PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES AND SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL TO GET ALIGNMENTS DONE ON ALL OF THEM BEFORE TIRES GET IN SUCH BAD SHAPE! KUDOS TO MY CHEVY DEALERSHIP AND SHAME ON GM! *TR

I HAD MY 2007 CHEVY IMPALA LT SERVICED AT DYER CHEVY (VERO BEACH,FL.) AND SINCE THEN THE TPMS WARNING LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON AND OFF DAILY. WENT IN A FEW WEEKS LATER TO HAVE SENSOR RESET AND IT STOPPED FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. WENT IN ON 9/11/08 AND HAD A DETAILED CHECK WHILE TPMS LIGHT WAS STILL ON AND GOT NEWS THAT THE SENSOR WAS BAD AND HAD TO BE REPLACED, AS WELL AS THE 2 REMOTE TRANSMITTERS, SINCE THEY WOULD NOT WORK WITH THE NEW RECEIVER AT A COST OF $600 PLUS DOLLARS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE HEAR AND FEEL LUMP, LUMP ABOUT 10 TIMES AND THEN AN EXPLOSION. YOU CAN FEEL THE TIRE EXPLODE ON THE BOTTOM OF YOUR CAR AND THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE VEHICLE HAS GOODYEAR INTEGRITY, SIZE 175/70R13 TIRES. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH IN THE SNOW, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLIDE. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED IN WET AND ICY CONDITIONS. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE TIRES WERE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THEY DID NOT SPECIFY THE REASON. THE DOT NUMBER, VIN, ENGINE SIZE, AND NUMBER OF CYLINDERS WERE UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 25,000.

GOODYEAR INTEGRITY 225/60R16 TIRE GOT FLAT TIRE FROM SMALL PLASTIC DEBRIS. WHEN TIRE WAS REPAIRED IT WAS POINTED OUT THE TIRE IS OVER HALF WORN AT JUST BARELY 9,000 MILES. TIRE IF KEPT ON VEHICLE WILL REQUIRE REPLACEMENT BEFORE 17,000 MILES. ALSO TIRE HANDLES POORLY IN ALL CONDITIONS. VERY LOOSE HANDLING AND EXCESSIVE TIRE NOISE ON CORNERS EVEN AT SLOW SPEEDS. *TR

WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF LEASING A 07 IMPALA, THERE HAS BEEN THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS MY TIRE HAS LOST ALL AIR PRESSURE WHILE PARKED WITHIN HOURS. 1ST INSTANCE: BETWEEN 10 A.M. AND 1 P.M. THE TIRE LOST AIR TO WHERE THE RIM WAS TOUCHING THE GROUND. 2ND INSTANCE: LOST 1/2 OF AIR OVERNIGHT - AGAIN THE RIM TOUCHED THE GROUND. I HAD PEP BOYS AND THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I AM LEASING THE VEHICLE EXAMINE THE TIRE AND BOTH SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TIRE AND IT WAS PROBABLY SOMEONE LETTING THE AIR OUT OF THE TIRE. THIRD INSTANCE: I LEFT MY VEHICLE IN THE GARAGE OVERNIGHT AND WOKE UP TO THE RIM TOUCHING THE GROUND. THIS RULED OUT SOMEONE LETTING THE AIR OUT OF THE TIRE. I AGAIN TOOK IT TO THE CHEVY DEALERSHIP WHO I AM LEASING THROUGH, AND ONCE AGAIN, I WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TIRE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 CHEVROLET IMPALA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AT 5,000 MILES HIS GOODYEAR INTEGRITY (175/70R13) TIRES FAILED. HE NOTICED A BULGE IN THE SIDEWALL OF THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. THE FRONT TWO TIRES WERE REPLACED AND THE FRONT DRIVERS SIDE TIRE WAS USED AS A SPARE. TWO WEEKS LATER, THE SPARE HAD A BULGE IN THE SIDEWALL. THE DOT NUMBER AND ENGINE SIZE WERE UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 5,807 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.
