Warranty for factory tyres?

[djambalawa]

Hi folks - my MY13 D4 has a bubble in one of its tyres at about 7000km... would this be covered by some kind of warranty? Would I go to LR or Goodyear?

All warranty under ACL rest with the dealer not land rover. It should i would fight hard for it.

I would think it depends on what has caused the bubble. If it a fracture of the belts caused by road impact then you will get no joy trying for warranty.

I had a bubble appear in my factory tire the other day, I luckily had taken out tyre and rim insurance when I bought the car. So I replaced it with a cooper ltz for nothing but the tyre man said the belts were damaged and he is going to show the Goodyear rep as he thought it was a rare occurrence...maybe not!

Cooper ltz's mmmmm can't wait to get my set this week!

As beefy said. All warranty issues rely solely with the supplier, not the manufacturer under the ACL.

A bubble in a tyre sounds like a fault in the construction to me, so therefore not fit for its intended purpose.

If they get stroppy mention the ACL and they will sort it.
