SEATS
I HAD A 1995 CHEVROLET PICK UP WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM, WHILE BACKING UP, THE DRIVER SEAT BOTTOM BROKE AWAY FROM WHERE IT ATTACHES TO THE SEAT TRACK. I ONLY WEIGH 160 LBS., SO IT ISN'T A WEIGHT OR ABUSE ISSUE. I FEEL CHEVROLET SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS THE SECOND TIME AROUND. WHAT WOULD HAVE HAPPENED IF I WERE IN A TRAFFIC SITUATION?. THIS IS DEFINETLY A SAFETY ISSUE, SUDDENLY, YOUR DRIVING FROM THE REAR SEAT LYING ON YOUR BACK!.*AK

TIRES
RIGHT FRONT TIRE BLEW OUT. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS A NAIL CAUSED THE ENTIRE SIDEWALL TO BLOW OUT. WE STRONGLY DISAGREE WITH THEM. THE TIRE WASN'T LEAKING AIR, WASN'T UNDERINFLATED, THERE WERE NO STEERING PROBLEMS, AND THE TIRE DIDN'T SHOW ANY SIGN OF WEAR. THE ENTIRE SIDEWALL BLEW OUT AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE TIRE AND RIM. FOR OUR SAFETY WE HAVE REMOVED THESE FIRESTONE TIRES FROM OUR VEHICLE, AND THEY ARE HERE AT OUR HOME FOR INSPECTION. WE BELIEVE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS MAKE OF TIRE.*AK

TIRES:TREAD/BELT
TREAD SEPARATION. NO PUNCTURES, NO FLATS, NO STRIKES TO TIRE. ABOUT 30 MILES NORTH OF BRADY TX. TEMP ABOUT 80F, LIGHT RAIN. ROAD WAS HARD PACKED GRAVEL UNDER CONTRUCTION. HEARD NOISE FROM REAR OF TURCK. SLOWED DOWN BUT CONTINUED DROVING. A MINUTE LATER A LOUD NOISE AND THE RIGHT REAR TIRE WAS FLAT. DID NOT SWERVE OFF ROAD AS OUR SPEED WAS ONLY 30MPH. PULLED OFF ROAD ONTO SOFT GROUND. CHANGED TO SPARE. REPLACED TIRE AT DEL RIO TX GOODYEAR STORE ON 6 JULY 2001. NO SIGNS OF A NAIL OR OTHER PUNCTURE. NO HOLES IN SIDEWALL. TREAD WAS COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM WHAT LOOKED LIKE AN INNER TUBE. THE SIDE WALL WAS GONE DUE TO THE RIM AND THE ROAD AFTER THE LOUD NOISE. THE GOODYEAR DEALER HAD NO EXPLANATION FOR THE FAILURE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE MAY BE A DEFECT IN EITHER THE TIRES OR THE TRUCK, AND THIS COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. I STILL HAVE 4 ORIGINAL TIRES ON THE TRUCK.*AK
