Radial bubble on tire alway impact damage
National Tire and Battery told me my radial tire with about 20K miles
certainly has impact damage. I have no sign of a scuff mark on the tire and have not impacted anything. The bubble runs radially on the tire and is about 4 inches long, 1/2 inch high, and 1 inch wide. The National Tire and Battery rep told me this type of bubble can only be formed by impact damage and is certainly not a manufacturing defect (thus no warranty). He claimed manufacturing defects only cause bubbles that have a different shape. Any feedback on this? What is NTB's reputation on this type of work? I also didn't like the fact it took them 3 hours to look at the car and tell me the news. Other tire dealers have always looked at the tire immediately. 3 hours just to look is ridiculous!! I have better things to do with my time than sit in the waiting room of a tire dealer. |
