| The problem arose one day when i was at my aunts house. my uncle went out side to look a my brand new car, 2005 celica and noticed that i had a bubble in the side of my tire. i took it up the next day to the toyota dealership because i had only had my car for three months. the first thing that came out of the toyota dealership was that i had to have hit something. i do not recall hitting anything, i am so cautious with this new car. the dealership said that the only way this could be covered was with road hazard, which i did not have. i would not mind having to pay for the tire but they weren't even willing to take my tire off to see what was wrong with the tire. i was told by numerous people that it was very dangerous riding around in my car with the condition my tire was in. the tire size (215/45 zr17). *jb | |||
