| On this 2011 hyundai elantra touring, the left (driver's side) front tire developed a bubble after only 2240 miles. the tire was a kumho solus kh16 215/45/17. the hyundai dealer advised me that the tire warranty was directly with kumho, not with the dealer or hyundai. representatives of two kumho tire dealers (discount tire and sears) said any bubbles were the result of impact, such as with a pothole, and the kumho warranty excluded road hazards. both refused to inspect the tire closely when i said there had been no impact that could have produced such a bubble. the kumho customer service contact failed to return my call. | |||
