Just recently purchased a 2013 buick verano with less than 15,000 miles on it. I've already had to replace two tires before hitting my two week mark. Each time I was driving 30mph and under each time a blow out occurred. Researched and found out that these continental tires have been not only been recalled but the continental procontact 235/45 18 have had many issues blowing out at moments notice. But not yet recalled along with previous continental tires. These tires need to be recalled again and taken off the market before a tragic injury occurres if it hasnt happened already.

Bought trade in from central cadillac in cleveland, ohio. Yes, two year old car with 6500 miles? Continental tire blew out, rear passenger side cost $220.00 for replacement tire. Had planned to take car on vacation but after all listed complaints I am extremely concerned for passenger safety with these tires. I am a retired law enforcement officer so please beware!

We have had 4 tire failures with our continental tires. There have been 3 blowouts and a bulge in a sidewall. Two of the blowouts occurred at speeds less than 25mph over small potholes. Tires had 6000 miles and 100 miles on them for the low speed blowouts. No bent rims. All deemed as road hazard. Bulged tire covered by buick dealer. I paid half for first blowout, all of the first low speed blowout, and continental covered the last because the tire only had 100 miles on it. First two tire troubles started when the car had 7200 miles on it. The next one had 6000 miles and the fourth had 100 miles on it. Contacted continental and they denied any problems with the sidewalls on this line of tires.
