Description of the problem	The first of several sidewall bulges appeared on the tires. Tires (kumho solus 215/45r17) fail frequently with uneven sidewall wear and blowouts. Expensive to repair on tires that should easily last 50k miles. Overall cabin noise is ridiculous. We were sold 17 inch alloy rims as a added "feature" on this car but given the car's performance and frequency of tire failure a 16 inch wheel would have been much safer.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
