TIRES
1 TIRE HAS A BUBBLE AND OTHER TIRE'S OUTSIDE TREAD IS COMING APART. CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE PURCHASED AND THEY ADVISED ME TO CALL GENERAL TIRE. I CONTACTED GENERAL TIRE AT 1-800-847-3349 & THEY REFERRED ME TO THE CHEVROLET DEALER IN LAMPASAS TEXAS. I WAS TO SPEAK TO JIM SMITH BUT HE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. WAS TOLD BY A COWORKER THAT "GENERAL TIRES DO NOT COME APART". I DISAGREE. WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO GET THEM REPLACED? I FEEL THEY COULD CAUSE A PROBLEM SUCH AS THE PROBLEMS WITH THE FIRESTONE TIRES IF THE TREAD COMES APART...( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: 245175R16 )
