Consumer Description

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. *TR
