4 Tire Bubble problem of the 2009 Mercedes Benz C300

Failure Date: 02/15/2010

I own a 2009 C300 series Mercedes Benz. We bought our car in 2010 as a demo with only 12,000 miles on it from the mercedes dealership. We had to change out one of the tires 2 months after we got the car due to a big bubble not in the tire. A month later, we then had to change out the back tire due to a nail being in the tire and they said they wasn't able to fix it. These are continental tires which are very expensive. Today, 2011, these back tires are completely worn out and need to be changed again. I am not sure if these tires are defects are what. . . . I am very tired of this, I thought I was buying the best. . . .
