anyone have easycare tire warranty?

If so how are they with claims? I have a bubble in my LFT and I need it replaced. A friend jokingly said it might be easier to run over a nail :/

Called today and sure enough they only cover it if the tire is losing air.

That sounds silly they wont change until it looses air.

Anyway you should replace that tire asap and maybe file a claim using tire shop invoice and recommendation?

exactly, especially since considering I have rim and tire warranty so if they make me drive on it and it blows out, ruins rim and they have a much bigger claim to cover

yep. basically a bubble in a tire means it's dead. the radial is torn inside.

great to hear you got a new replacement free.

When dealing with these tire warranties also remeber that with most of them they only cover damage caused by things in the roadway. So, hitting a curb isn't covered or running off the road and hitting something may not be covered. So always claim that the damage happened within the roadway, like a potholes or debris. Just cover yourself.
