evan9381 Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Got a friend with a golf ball size bulge in the sidewall of her tire. Trying to find the stuff from when she bought it less than a month ago. Is there a road hazard warranty on the oem tires? She bought it from a dealership in Mount Vernon, but living in Columbus now. Its a 2014 focus hatch w/ under 2k miles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benner Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 Not a Ford tech but usually not. If she hit something hard enough to bulge the sidewall there's a good chance the wheel is damaged as well. I just replaced 2 wheels and tires on a cruze that came in last week with under 20,000 miles due to a pot hole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staywide8 Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Tires are the only thing factory warranty doesn't cover. Try the tire manufacturer. ..but good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty2Hotty Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Wearable item, unless it's suspension related or a tire defect. Worth a shot, but it may not go far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
