Consumer Description

MY WIFE HAD A FLAT TIRE ON THIS BRAND NEW CAR AFTER ONLY ABOUT 1,600 MILES. THE TIRES ON THIS NEW CAR ARE THE CONTINENTAL CONTIPROCONTACT 235/45 R19 95H. THERE APPEARED TO BE A SMALL GASH/SLIT TOWARD THE RIM OF THE RIGHT REAR TIRE -- ON THE SIDE OF THE TIRE. MY WIFE DOES NOT RECALL DRIVING OVER ANY ROAD HAZARD THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED SUCH A GASH/SLIT. THERE WAS ALSO AIR SEEPING FROM THE TIRE WHERE IT MEETS THE RIM WHEN I TOOK IT INTO OUR FORD DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT WHERE THIS WAS LEAKING. DOESN'T SEEM TO ME THAT WE NECESSARILY DID ANYTHING TO CONTRIBUTE TO THIS TIRE GOING FLAT AND I JUST WANTED TO REPORT IT SINCE THIS HAPPENED ONLY AFTER 1,600 MILES OF DRIVING ON THIS NEW CAR. THANK YOU. *TR
