I went in today to have my winter tires changed back to the 19" OEM Continentals. During the process the tire guy discovered that 3 of 4 summer tires have bubbles in the side wall on the back side of the tire. They must be replaced. This car was purchased around 9/7/15 and the summer tires were changed over to winter in early November. I probably put about 2000 miles on them, of which 1200 was in one trip to Calif. The rest of the driving was around town. I did not run off any curbs, do any off-roading or otherwise abuse the tires. During Nov through now they were in my garage.
The guy at the tire shop is going to call Continental in the AM and he checked and said they should be covered fully for replacement...so I am hoping I will not be out $$...but the question remains..how could this happen?
Any thoughts or advice is appreciated.
