Description of the problem | This complaint is about the one of my tires. During an oil change at the dealership where i purchased the car, the dealership representative notified me of a bubble in one of the tires. I purchased the car oct (28), 2011. I don't know the exact date of the tire bubble notification by the dealer rep, but it was during the 2011 calendar year. The rep stated that unfortunately the dealership does not warranty the tires! Is there any recourse to have that or all the tires replaced? The tire (all four) is a hankook optimo h431 225/45 r18 . 95v, radial tubeless, made in korea. |
