Even so, all 4 of my tires split at the sidewalls in under 35K Kms. When I went to the dealer about it they said that it wasn't their problem, and that I should go talk to Goodyear. If I'd bought my tires from Goodyear, rather than the dealer, that might have been a reasonable response. At my next service after that they asked if I wanted to get new tires (which obviously I already had). That service advisor likely went home with bleeding ears that night.

The OEM doesn't warranty tires.
