When I took it to tire store they noticed a bubble on the driver outside of the tire approximately same size. I have to replace that tire as well. These tires appear excessively prone to " road issues". fortunately I was driving not my wife (her car).

Had Continental tire blow out on rear passenger side of 2014 Buick Verano with 1,096 miles. I was driving approximately 20 mph in the city. I had to pull off the road and wait for roadside assistance to install service tire and then took in next day for replacement at my costs. $225 for one tire and low mileage. Was told this is common with the Continental tires. Feel it is a safety issue considering I was told by several people, these tires do this if they hit a pot hole, a curb or any type of bump. Also was told I could buy a tire warranty. Sorry but I'm over 50 and never heard that I could buy tire insurance because the product has a reputation for what happened. I feel ripped off and not told about the problems when I got the Buick Verano. I don't have $225 everytime I hit a pot hole which I didn't even hit!
