Sidewall of the right front tire split in two places after the consumer ran over a curb at 5 mph, which caused an immediate blowout. One month later the consumer rubbed the left front tire against a curb while pulling through a narrow driveway and the left front tire sidewall came apart in the same way as the first tire did. The consumer took the vehicle back to the dealer, however the dealer stated it was a road hazard and it was not covered under warranty, but as a courtesy they replaced the tire. The consumer requested that the 17 inch wheels be replaced with 16 inch wheels.
(1) driving along in town, aprox 5 mph 2) tire went flat, seems as if someone stuck a knife through it, but it was fine upon leaving my home (only has 1,866 miles)/ (3) not covered by warrenty, have to purchase new tire.
