Ah, thank you for that information. Hopefully as a Japanese company which usually strive for zero defects any issue with tires exploding were addressed. Of course it's hard to know if it was a manufacturing issue or nail lurking for you that day. I would think if it was widespread we would have heard more about it like the exploding Firestone Ford Explorer mess. Even a few tires exploding now can get NHTS to wake up like say for http://money.cnn.com/2007/06/27/autos/chinese_tire_recall/index.htm
I note the warranty seems to be 60 months in the USA, but on only 4 years or 100K km in canada, that and they cheerfully take no responsibility outside of any issue than the tire, I'm not sure any other tire company would assume responsibility for other damages either? Well all of which doesn't make you a happy consumer either...
