Description of the problem	2013 dodge journey was leased new, with kumho solus kh16 tires from the factory. Vehicle were inflated with nitrogen and valve stems capped with signifying green caps. Winter ensued and noticed that pressure was decreasing in one of the tires. Unable to locate a nitrogen service, was forced to inflate with air. After about a week, found same tire to still be losing air; due to the continuing sub zero temps, i figured it was normal cold weather pressure loss. Still losing pressure, removed tire and found a leak in the tread, tire was plugged, inflated, leak checked and placed back in service. During the 2014 and 2015 winters, all tires required frequent air service, but never required a pressure reduction. May 2015 the one culprit tire was requiring weekly air service and by july, the tire was routinely found flat in the morning. Took the vehicle to my local tire shop and they discovered that the tire was not leaking from the patch, but was however leaking form the inner sidewall where there was a significant bulge and belt separation. They immediately took the tire out of service and inspected the other three, they found bulges in two of the other tires sidewall's and recommended replacing all four at 20,000 miles. They indicated that they had stopped carrying kumho's because of the quality issues. This is a 60,000 mile rated tire with an obvious engineering flaw. It needs to be recalled immediately.
