| Description of the problem | I have 4 michelin cross terrain tires p265/70r17. They are under warranty with plenty of tread but the side walls (not near tread) of all four tires have deep long cracks (up to 8 inches in length) i noticed this sept. 2010 and the dealer isn't very helpful and just wants to charge me money for new tires. I believe this is a huge safety hazard and they should be recalled! *kb |
