Purchased a whole set of Michelin primacy mxv4 tires on 10/13/2016, with odometer 54993. During the service on 04/18/2018, with odometer 79700, I was informed two front tires measure below 2/32nds of an inch, and the tires need to be replaced.
Tpm(tire pressure monitor) light indicating low pressure when there is no error. Dealer (san marco, Texas) claims the issue is due to cell phone charger interference with tpm system. Dealer claims Honda is aware of the issue and sent out a service bulletin to limit the cell phone charger to less than twenty minutes to prevent the tpm fault code and dash light from being set. In my professional option, Honda America has what is known as a 'conductive electro-magnetic interference" issue with their system. Based on what has been communicated, I believe there is an elementary design flaw with their system that allows either the transmitted energy or internal generated signals of cell phone to be coupled into their system using the battery lines.
My 6 month pregnant wife was driving our van from work to home and was on a state highway driving at approximately 55 mph. The right rear tire burst out catastrophically causing the vehicle to go out of control for a brief moment before she managed to pull over to the shoulder. The vehicle has less than 15 K miles and is less than 2 years old. The tires are Continental make that came with the new car. The vehicle (and the tires) has been maintained as required by the car maker and the last tire rotation and re balance was performed approximately 1 month prior to the incident. We strongly believe this is a major manufacturing defect with the tire and this was a safety related event that could potentially have caused a crash. We have further details of tire if needed.
