Tire Problems of Honda Ridgeline

I am filing this complaint regarding the oem general grabber a/t tires (date code 1424) that came with my brand new 2024 Honda Ridgeline, purchased in June 2024. At approximately 16,000 miles, I noticed significant dry rotting and cracking between the treads on all four tires. This was observed right before a planned long-distance trip, raising serious safety concerns. I maintain proper tire pressure and take excellent care of my vehicle, and I live in vermont where the climate is harsh but not extreme enough to justify this kind of premature deterioration. The dealer referred me to Honda’s 1-800 number, who then directed me to continental, the parent company of general. Continental opened a case and instructed me to visit a continental dealer, who confirmed the dry rot but said they need to pull the tires to send them back to continental for inspection before they decide whether to approve the warranty claim. Meanwhile, I am expected to purchase a new set of tires upfront. This process is not only burdensome but also concerning given the potential safety risk of these tires. Tires with only 16k miles should not be deteriorating like this, and I believe other owners should be aware of the issue. Please investigate the integrity and safety of these tires, as the premature dry rot could pose a serious hazard to drivers.
