Data refreshed

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

WE WERE 4 HOURS INTO OUR VACATION WHEN THE GOODYEAR MARATHON 235/80/16 ON OUR 2011 MONTANA 5TH WHEEL BLEW. THE DAMAGE WAS CLOSE TO $2000, MESSED UP THE TIRE WELL, RIPPED THE BELLYPAN AND MESSED UP THE SLIDE OUT. GOODYEAR WILL PAY OUR DEDUCTIBLE, BUT WON'T HELP WITH REPLACEMENT OF THE REST OF THE CHINA BOMBS UNDER OUR CAMPER. VERY UNHAPPY WITH GOODYEAR AND MONTANA. *TR
