Show complaint excerpts
Was switching out the "summer" tires for winter tires and noticed a bubble on the sidewall of the passenger front tire. At the time the car had around 3,000 miles on it. I switched to my spare tire, did not put the bubbled tire back on the car.
NHTSA ODI report, 2024-02-05
Tire size 245/35 R20 Found a large bulge in the sidewall nearing a burst. I have not hit any significant potholes or had any impacts of any sort. Luckily I found this before it blew out.
NHTSA ODI report, 2024-02-04
Continental Pro Contact size 245/35 R 20 sidewall blew out with 265 miles on a brand-new car. Blew out leaving a parking lot at a very slow speed. The tire did not hit anything, it just lost all air pressure, and the warning light came on.
