I bought 4 new tires from discount tire in jacksonville Florida. They are P235/75 R15 108S XL OWL ptf pathfinder sport sat. I paid $100 for each tire on August 22, 2015 (not including cost of installation, lifetime balancing, etc) and they were supposed to come with a 60,000 mile warranty. Currently they have less than 28,000 miles on them and have extremely irregular wear. I have had numerous flats and loss of pressure over the past 24 months. I spoke to charles (the manager of the tire store) when I was in there with my 3rd flat in 2 months on December 4th, 2017. I expressed my displeasure at having so many issues with relatively new tires. Charles responded that my trouble is because of the recent hurricanes...and I should have bought Michelin tires! these tires are extremely inferior quality products, but he says it's normal wear for these tires. Can you help?
