From owner reports, verbatim
IN SEPT 2014 I HAD A BLOWOUT ON I75 ON MY JAYCO FIFTH WHEEL. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE RV. AFTER THE RV WAS REPAIRED IT WAS IN STORAGE UNTIL JUNE 28,2015, WHEN I HAD ANOTHER BLOW OUT, AND THEN 2 MORE ON JULY 1ST. EVERY TIRE WAS DESTROYED BECAUSE THE TREAD RIPPED OFF THE TIRE. I ALSO HAD DAMAGE TO THE 5TH WHEEL FROM EACH OF THESE BLOW OUTS. I FILED A CLAIM WITH GOODYEAR AS IT WAS OBVIOUS THE TIRES WERE DEFECTIVE. GOODYEAR REJECTED THE CLAIM SAYING THE TIRES MUST HAVE BEEN LOW ON AIR. I ALWAYS CHECK MY TIRES WHEN I AM LEAVING ON A TRIP AND I DO NOT OVERLOAD THE RV.
