2024 Toyota 4runner Wheels Problems

Your factory Yokohama Geolander G96 tire experienced an inner sidewall blowout on the driver's rear, with no visible puncture or road debris damage. The dealership service representative refused to properly inspect the tire by dismounting it, instead dismissing the failure as impact damage based on normal wheel casting marks found on all five wheels. The tire appears to have failed structurally rather than from external impact, and Yokohama has a documented history of recalls for this tire line involving sidewall geometry issues. Resolution would likely require a full tire inspection by a qualified technician, possible warranty claim with the tire manufacturer, and potentially replacement tires.
