Not wanting to cause any sort of a panic. I just wanted everyone to know that even Goodyear can have failures with their tires. In fact, many here already know that.
I follow many blogs, including those of several full-timers. Here's a post from Pat and Mike McFall on their blog that relates their G614 issue and their post-failure corrective action.
The tire had not blown and had "just" shucked the tread when they were flagged down by a passing motorist. This is something a TPMS can't tell you about right away. Still, I recommend the use of Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems as do many others on this forum.
There are others but Pressure Pro is the one may of us use. In fact, Mike and Pat McFall are dealers for them. Consider them should you be contemplating a purchase. Link to their Pressure Pro site.
