Description of the problem	I own a 2011 hyundai sonata limited 2. 0t which came equipped with hankook optimo h431 tires, size 225/45r18v. At approximately 41000 miles (august 2014) i noticed a bulge/bubble on the sidewall of the right front tire. Upon visiting a local tire shop to determine how bad the problem was, the technician removed the tire and advised me that there were 5 separate bubbles in the tire and it was not safe to drive. I brought the car to the dealership & was told the issue was not covered under any warranty and i had to purchase a new tire for $275. Two days ago i was walking around the car and i've noticed a bubble on the sidewall of the left front tire now. I drive primarily on the highway and keep my tires properly inflated at all times. There were/are no abrasions, scuffs or cuts on the side of the tire at the sight of the bubbles. They have been located both in the inner & outer sidewalls.
