Tire Bead problems of the 2006 Honda Accord

On Feb. 5, 2011 I purchased 4 tires from dobbs Honda on covington pike, memphis, tennessee. On June 7, one of the tires went flat. I was told that the bead was broken on the tire. I returned the tire to dobbs which promised a refund for the tire, have not recieved. On August 2, 2011 I received another flat on a tire. I was told the cause of the flat was a broken bead, I again spoke with dobbs representative who stated that someone would call me. The firs ttire had about 3500 miles on it and the second tire had 4400 miles on it. I complaint that I was afraid that the other two tires might also have a defect and wanted the tires replaced. I was told that the service manager would contact me. Dobbs is claiming that it has been almost six months from purchase disregarding the low mileage on the new tires. The service manager after my constant concern regarding the tire safety check the tires saying that the pressure was high and blaming the extreme heat for the problem. When I stated that this does not explain the first tire problem stated that the service manager will call you after five today or tomorrow.
