THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE ORIGINAL TIRES ON OUR 2015 HYUNDIA GENISIS 5.0 WITH CONTIPROCONTACT TIRES DUE TO A RECALL ON THE ORIGINAL HANKOOK TIRES IN JUNE 2016. SINCE THEN WE HAVE REPLACED , ON SIX DIFFERENT ACCATIIONS,ONE OF THE TIRES .THE FIRST TWO, ONE FRONT AND ONE REAR ,WERE BECAUSE OF BUBBLES ON THE SIDEWALL. THE NEXT ONE WAS FROM TREAD SEPERATION ON A REAR TIRE, AND THE LAST TWO ,WERE FRONT TIRES, BOTH FROM BLOW OUTS, AFTER HITTING SMALL POTHOLES AT LOW SPEEDS ON TWO DIFFERENT ACCATIIONS. I HAVE NEVER HAD PROBLEMS LIKE THIS BEFORE,AND I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR OVER 50 YEARS. I THINK THESE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE AND DANGEROUS.SOME ONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING BEFORE PEOPLE START GETTING HURT OR EVEN KILLED FROM THEM.

SIMPLY PUT, MY HYUNDAI GENESIS IS EXTREMELY SUSCEPTIBLE TO TOTAL AND SUDDEN TIRE FAILURE. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR ABOUT 7 MONTHS AND HAVE HAD 6 TIRES BLOWOUT, EVEN WITHOUT HITTING ANY POTHOLES. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED, I HAD A TIRE SIDE WALL BLOWOUT AS I LEFT MY DRIVEWAY ,DRIVING AT A SLOW SPEED. I HAD IT CHANGED THE NEXT MORNING AND WITHIN HOURS, ANOTHER TIRE BLEW WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 60 MILE PER HOUR ON THE NJ GARDEN STATE PARKWAY, WITHOUT HITTING ANY ROAD IMPERFECTIONS OR POTHOLES AT ALL. IT SEEMS THAT THE LOW PROFILE TIRES ARE SIMPLY NOT UP TO SIMPLE , NORMAL DAY TO DAY DRIVING. I AM AWARE THAT MANY OTHER GENESIS AND EQUUS OWNERS HAVE SUFFERED THE SAME, MANY TIMES OVER, YET HYUNDAI REFUSES TO RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM,BLAMING THE TIRE MANUFACTURERS, EVEN THOUGH THIS HAPPENED TO ME WITH 3 DIFFERENT BRANDS AND EVEN TO TIRES DESIGNED TO RUN FLAT! I DON'T NEED TO ELABORATE ON THE HAZARD CREATED BY TIERS THAT BLOW OUT ALL THE TIME ESPECIALLY WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ON CONGESTED ROADWAYS. I WAS LUCKY THAT I MANAGED TO AVOID GETTING HIT ON THE LAST INCIDENT BY THE HUNDRED OF CARS PASSING BY AT OVER 60 MILES PER HOUR. *TR
