Goodyear Tires - Uneven Wear at 21,000 miles

[csomberg]

I have 21,000 miles on my 2022 GW III and the front end is starting to rumble a little while at highway speeds.

I rotate my tires faithfully at 5,000 mark and align the front end twice now.

After research, the dealer told me the tires have uneven wear and I should replace them!!!!

Wagoneer Concierge says they don't do anything with tires.

Has anyone had any issues along this line?

Thanks!

The Goodyear stock tires are not a great match at all for Wagoneers. Others on the forum have all either gotten the dealer to put Pirelli on before taking delivery, or buying them immediately and selling the stock junk to anyone that wants them. Other vehicles may match up for them, but the ones on Wagoneer, trash. I grumbled about them to another vehicle owner at my dealership, one of the Sales people was in the lounge area. Wanted to know why, I told her, and viola' every new Wagoneer/GW that arrived after that had Pirelli. Dealers can make a different/specific order and most will, just to sell the high priced vehicle. Making a customer happy enough to come back for Service (which is where they really make money, not vehicle sales), it means a lot.

Pirelli seems to have the SUV matching tire now, just put some on my wife's Infiniti QX60 (I had a QX80 before the GW3). Loves them, couldn't believe the feel, sound, traction difference. AS3 version...
