I DISCOVERED A 2-INCH BUBBLE IN THE SIDE OF THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS A SNAPPED BELT THAT IS ALLOWING AIR TO ESCAPE THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE. THE TIRE HAS 3700 MILES ON IT, AND I HAVE NEVER RUN OVER SO MUCH AS A LARGE POTHOLE. NEVERTHELESS, THE DEALER AND LOCAL TIRE COMPANIES WHO DEAL IN CONTINENTAL TIRES HAVE REFUSED TO HONOR ANY WARRANTY, CLAIMING THAT THE PROBLEM IS A ROAD HAZARD. IF THE TIRE IS SO POORLY DESIGNED OR MANUFACTURED THAT NORMAL, ON-STREET DRIVING CAUSES A BELT TO SNAP WITH LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON THE TIRE, SOMETHING IS SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH ITS MANUFACTURE.*AK (TIRESIZE: 205/55 R16)
