2002 trailblazer tire blew out. *ts the consumer lost control of the vehicle and hit a divider wall and then stuck an embankment. *jb updated 05/02/06.
The spare tire hoist cable system tangled or jammed and would not allow the spare to lower further or raise. I had to use rope to tie the spare tire to the frame to make sure it would not fall down while I was driving which clearly could have thrown the back of the vehicle upward. The dealer had to cut the cable and replace the entire hoist assembly: $176.54. The hoist had been used successfully on three other occasions.
My vehicle has been in the shop for these reasons and more. Faulty back light- dvd systems. On top of all these it has had three recalls in the nine months I've owned it. Bought it new!
I have 4 (245-70-16) bf goodrich open trail t/a tires that came original on my new 2002 chevrolet trailblazer ls 4wd. I have 20,649 miles on my vehicle. I have 5/32 tread left, I have belts broken in the sidewall, cracks in between the tread. Although 5/32 tread is "acceptable" according to b f goodrich I have recently experienced sliding in wet conditions as opposed to when I first bought the vehicle and the tread depth was more abundant. According to b f goodrich, these tires are not subject to replacement under the terms of their warranty. It's against my better judgment to keep driving on these tires, but if I listen to them and accept their position that these tires are safe, I will be risking the lives of myself, my wife, and my passengers. I hope this organization will investigate this tire and I will be more than happy to have them pulled from my vehicle and shipped to you for examination.
Purchased car two weeks later was in dealership with problems when driving. Was told tires were bad. Tires were replaced. Car has two noises when driving down the road and you hit a bump. Car still has whinning sound in the passenger side door even though the seal has been replaced in all 4 doors. When you close the driver door you hear the same noise that you hear when you are driving down the road. Has already been to the dealer for this several times but they don't know what to do about it.
2002 chevrolet trailblazer lt with b.f. Goodrich "open trail t/a" m+s tires (p245/70r16 wol). This incident marks the third time this has happened. When the tires encounter freshly-wetted pavement or any wet earth on the pavement all tire adhesion vanishes and the vehicle becomes an uncontrollable sled as if it were racing across ice. This effect is not speed dependent. The first incident almost resulted in a rear-end collision. The second and third incidents nearly resulted in the vehicle leaving the road. These tires appear to be safe only on clean dry pavement.
Tire blow out on a straight road (route 22, pa) with nothing to cause the blow out resulting in crash with another car and the barrier wall. No one was injured. Mr
While driving 60-65 and without warning right front tire blewout, resulting in a frontal side collision.*ak
