    My 2016 malibu has had two continental procontact tx tires fail because of the sidewall radials breaking. These tires are unsafe. My coworker has had the same issue. The dealer and company keeps blaming the roads. I have operated vehicles for 36 years and have never had a sidewall failure and now i have had 2 with the same brand and model tire.

    Car is equipped with 19 inch aluminum alloy wheels and 245/40/19 conitpro tires. In my first 12, 000 miles i have had two blowouts and two additional sidewall bulges requiring tire replacement for safety reasons. That's ruined 4 tires in one year. My information is that because of the size of the wheel and the profile/make of the tire- that this problem has happened. What can i do to resolve this issue?

    Car is equipped with low profile tires and they go flat when vehicle strikes a pothole. I had to replace all four tires after just 10,000 miles(went from continental to bridgestone). Immediately afterwards, between 10,000 and 11,000 miles, i went through 4 more tires due to this type of tire striking a pothole. I have been driving for 50 years, had 3 flat and 1 vandalized tire and now gone through 8 tires in 6…
