Buy new tire. Period.

There is no way to repair a broken belt on a tire; given the manufacturing process of today's tires.

The only factor to consider is the age of the tire (check the D.O.T. on the sidewall) to determine if tire may be defective.....

Can tires squeak?

Yes, a "slipped belt" can cause a tire to squeak. A slipped belt is when the belt area of the tire separates from the radial plies of the tire and there is a noise as the two parts rub across each other. If a tire squeaks because of a slipped belt, do not drive at high speed and replace the tire as quickly as possible. A slipped belt will eventually separate causing the tire to blow out.

How dangerous is a broken tire belt?

It is very dangerous to drive a vehicle with a broken tire belt. A tire belt is used to reinforce the area under the tread. They provide puncture resistance and help the tire stay flat so that it can make the best contact with the road. When a belt breaks the tire becomes out of round which causes steering wheel shimmy, vibration, and in the worst case scenario, tread separation from the tire. All 3 examples can cause you to lose control of your vehicle. If the tire belt is broken the tire needs to be replaced as soon as possible.


Why does your car want to chimmy on the highway and when you hit the brakes?

Vibration when applying brakes is most likely warped rotors. Another cause could be loose caliper bolts. The vibration while driving is most likely a tire issue ie (out of balance, broken belt in tire, bent rim). Other possible causes are loose/worn suspension and/or steering parts.
