TIRES
I PURCHASED TWO SETS OF GOODYEAR WRANGLER TIRES BECAUSE THE FIRST SET HAD FLAT SPOTS ON THEM AFTER 25,000 MILES. GOODYEAR DESTROYED THE FIST SET W/O MY PERMISSION AFTER THEY WERE SENT IN BY HEURING CHEVROLET & CADILLAC AT 1856 US HIGHWAY 30 VALPARAISO, IN 46385 FOR INSPECTION. GOODYEAR NEVER REPLIED TO ME EITHER BY TELEPHONE OR BY E-MAILS THAT I MADE AND/OR THE SERVICE MANAGER AT HEURING CHEVROLET MADE. HAVING NO CHOICE OR TIRES I THEN PURCHASED A SECOND SET FROM BROWN TIRE AT 6755 MELTON RD IN PORTAGE, IN 46368 AND THEY HAD FLAT SPOTS ON THEM TOO AFTER 22,000 MILES. ALL EIGHT TIRES I HAD PURCHASE FROM GOODYEAR HAD FLAT SPOTS ON THEM AFTER DRIVING WITH THEM ON MY TRUCK. ARROW CHEVROLET TOLD ME TO DEAL WITH THE TIRE MANUFACTURE MYSELF CAUSE THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM. *AK (TIRESIZE: 235/75/15)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 235/75/15 )
