1 Tire problem

Failure Date: 04/09/2024

Continental 235/40/r19 this is what I sent to consumer affair website: my personal experience reflects exactly the same as the poor rating of this brand. Tire has separation at 32k miles on the Tesla 3. I first noticed a thumb thumb sound. I ignored but it got worse then the vibration inside cabin started to occur. I pulled the tire off and inspected. My god I have a tire separation with steel wire sticking out and a big hump. I got mad after I found out that Tesla wants nothing to do with it (heck they don't even a have no. To call for an expensive car, shame on you Tesla) and continental does not have a warranty. Spending time searching for another tire to buy I find out it is expensive for ev tire. I was frustrated and angry that I have to deal with a defective tire with no warranty from Tesla and continental for low miles (plenty of thread left on tire). I decided to call continental. The experience was horrible with them hung up on me and a run around. They told me to take to discount tire to have it inspect. Dt agreed tire is defective and expect me to pay $250 with pro rate covered by continental. I already found the same tire for $225 so I tell d. T take a hike. I called continental back and hell broke loose. I got a lot of run around, hung up with the rep. Then manager and they won't do the tire pro rate more than 30%. I got fed up with lot of cussing I went back to d. Tire and settled with another continental tire that is cheaper. I was pushing my luck driving with the tire that will blow anytime. The f. Tesla does not have a spare tire on an expensive car (shame on you Tesla). I had no choice to replace a tire out of my pocket of $150 for the same brand as that is the only one with similar thread pattern very reluctantly as I had no other choice or take a risk driving and no spare tire.
