I was driving my vehicle when all four tires indicated a major malfunction of tire pressure warning. I immediately went to my local authorized dealer where it was discovered that all 4 tires needed to be replaced, the 2nd time in 2 years, because of interior deterioration from within the tire walls. It was explained to me that the nitrogen used to fill the tires, that are run flats, causes this. The cost to replace each tire was $274.01. Mind you this is the second time in 2 years and the dealer and tire manufacturer refuse to rectify this issue as well as make good on any warranties that are still in affect.
