Goodyear denies silent recall amid tire complaints
AP reports Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co denies a silent recall disclosure amid claims of more than 3,000 light-truck tire complaints since 1995. Most claims settled with replacements and damage reimbursements. Goodyear cites case-by-case customer satisfaction and notes tread-separation linked injuries and deaths, but says no recall issued due to no tire defect found.
