2024 GMC Sierra 2500

I bought this truck from a reputable GM dealership 2.5 weeks before this happening occurred. Tires only had 50k miles on them when they were rated for 80k miles: the front driver side Ttire ruptured while on major hwy in texas. No signs of air loss and the road was clear of any debris. Steering started to lightly shake and eventually came to a violent shake, then the front driver tire ruptured. Uncontrollable steering from the rupture caused the truck to slam and scrape into the concrete dividing barrier. If it were not for the other drivers around and being then cautioning their driving behaviors, this may have resulted fatally. Other drivers and my self may have easily collided with each other on a major traffic highway. I’m still extremely mindful of this happening again. This caused me as a customer, originally thinking this tire manufacturer is to be trusted, to not being a customer any longer as well as causing nearly $30,000 of needed repairs. From what I am reading from this site, plenty of other drivers have experienced the same, almost identical happenings. This is a safety issue that needs a recall on this line of tires and the manufacturer should be liable for all costs to the consumer witch includes vehicle rentals, hotel fees and insurance deductibles, s as well as the entire bill of repairs the insurance companies dish out. It appears from all of the complaints, Goodyear is producing unsafe products that is endangering consumers’ lives. Do the ethical thing Goodyear. Stand behind your product and protect, honor your customers. I have requested a subjugation claim with my insurance provider. The ruptured tire and related wheel are in my possession, available for inspection upon request. Police and GM roadside assistance were called as Onstar was prompted.

Traveling on I-10 doing approx 75 mph head a loud boom and saw sparks coming from the read drivers side of the truck. Truck was riding a bit low on that side. Pulled over and determined the tire had blown up. Currently doing the insurance claim and repair as there was substantial damage to the truck. No crash or involvement by other motorists. Did not hit anything.

DRIVING THE SPEED LIMIT OF 55 ON A PAVED ROAD, NO WEATHER CONDITIONS AND THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE EXPLODED. WHEN THIS HAPPENED THE TRUCK SLID ACROSS THE ROAD INTO THE OTHER LANE. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS COMING IN THE OTHER LANE AND I WAS ABLE TO GET THE TRUCK UNDER CONTROL. THE TIRE WAS FINE, TIRE PRESSURE WAS CORRECT BUT THE ENTIRE TREAD OF THE TIRE FLEW/BLEW OFF AND CAUSED EXTREME DAMAGE TO THE REAR DRIVER SIDE TIRE WHEEL WELL AND BACK BODY PANEL OF THE TRUCK. THE TIRE IS STILL FULL OF AIR AT THE CORRECT PRESSURE TO THIS DAY. THE TIRE SIZE IS LT 275/70 R 18 125/122 R LOAD RANGE E
