I was lucky, my dealership threw in the wheel and tire package repair/replacement for free.

Hope your stuff is taken care of.

I sure wish i was offered the wheel and tire insurance. Looks like i might be going drag radials now. 315/35r20 looks to be my best option.

I picked up a sheet metal screw last night. I will be testing my dealership on the tire warranty I bought. With less than 600 miles on the car, I want a new tire...

We should have a "Vandalism" section here at Camaro5, so people are alerted to the extent that this situation really is.

I agree with RLHMARINES

The new vehicle limited warranty of 2012 Chevrolet vehicles state that :

Tires supplied with vehicle are covered against defects in material or workmanship under the Bumper to Bumper coverage.

If the issue is tire wear, the customer would be expected to go to the tire manufacturer for the claim.

Road hazard is not covered. This includes punctures, cuts, impact breaks, etc.

If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact me at any time.

I was told years ago that's why you always "patch from the inside" and never "plug" a tire especially a high dollar soft compound. I have run tires specifically the Michelin Pilot bald after patching it! I'll admit it I even tracked the patched tire, the puncture was not a big one and was not near the sidewall.
