This started out with a tire almost being flat. Pumped up the tire at home and took vehicle to a tire shop to be repaired. When the shop took the tire off the truck, they told me the tire is no good, it is leaking through the sidewall. They put my spare on and I went to the Goodyear dealer in my town. The Goodyear dealer looked at the leak through the sidewall and removed the tire from the rim. There was 2, 2 inch cuts on the inside of the tire sidewall (1 at the leak) of this tire that he could not explain. He told me a new tire was $180 and I asked him to contact Goodyear corporate because there is hardly any wear/miles on these tires. He contacted Goodyear and 3 days later they said they would replace the tire for $94. This tire had 4/32 worn off from it!!! while waiting for Goodyear corporate to reply to the local Goodyear dealer I took the truck to my local Dodge dealer to have them raise the truck on the hoist to check the rest of the tires for a slight bulge on the inner sidewall because of fear of these tires blowing out the sidewall at highway speeds and causing a fatality! they did not see any but before I left they told me to schedule an appointment to get both outer tie rod ends and the left (driver) side lower ball joint replaced! this vehicle was purchased new on 12-31-2003, has 26,600 miles on it and has always been serviced at this dealer.parts and labor were covered by warranty but what is going to fail next?
