“Kuhmo solus kh16 p215/45r17-87h sidewall cracking and separation. Started at 13k miles and first complete failure at 15k miles. All 4 are oem tires on a Hyundai Elantra Touring and all 4 tires have developed wear and other issues over life of tires. Vehicle not safe to drive due to risk of blowout of tires. Hyundai dealer (from where car was purchased) will not even look at tires and states that I have to find an independent tire dealer that will deal with kumho, even though tires are original to care from their dealership and Hyundai. …”

One tire was ready to separate at any moment. I have pictures of all the tires and a document from the auto repair place.
