| Description of the problem | Bought new in july 2012. Car has around 46k on it. I have had to replace 2 of the 4 michelin energy saver a/s tires because of cracking in the sidewalls. Both had chunks missing and the cracking/rot was spreading. I drove on them for months like that, luckily without incident. I bought a pair used to replace them so i could get full wear out of the remaining too, but i am wary of buying michelins for my next set. |
