The tires of the car started growing bumps on the face of the tire. initially one in one tire, then the second one on the same tire, then one on a second tire and finally a third one on the first tire. i called the distributor and was told to buy new tires or go to the tire manufacturer for warranty. this in my opinion is a serious security risk that the manufacturers are not taking seriously. *tr
