Problems with 2003 Honda Element TIRES

Re: tires michelin xcx/apt 215/70 r16 dot hnxo ekfx 4405 when putting air in my tires on 3/21/2015 i found all four tire sidewalls had a lot of cracks (one inch and bigger) plus a lot of other tire failure problems. these were not notice by honda dealer garage on tire rotation that was performed within the last six months. neither had i notice this since that rotation, the tire tread on these tires are still good. i am aware that there were no recall and these tires have "expired" so to speak. my concern is that michelin tires had not warned me of this possible problem putting my family, myself and others on the road in danger. i want michelin to replace those tires. anyone else having these tires should be told. i have photos. *tr
