Tire blew out the first time we took the new honda accord on the interstate. The car barely had 1,300 miles on it when this happened. Two shops mentioned that honda/michelin has had problems with these particular tires and they are now substituting a different tire. Obviously we had to purchase one new tire but now the vehicle has mismatched michelins since the original is not available anymore.
I have a bulge on the side of my tire, my husband took it to honda they said he probably hit a pot hole, and we are liable for the tire which was quoted at $300.00. I am going to a michelin dealer on sept. 4, to check out the tire. I have 2000 miles on the car leased it in april of 2007 and the dealer says I hit a pot hole. I told him the bulge is on the side of the tire and do I have to buy a new tire everytime I hit a pothole. My car is brand new, I have a ford taurus with cheap tires and never had a problem. Your help is would be greatly appreciated. Is there any way I can find out if this happens to many tires?
