XC70 6-cyl

  • 14,114 miles
This is second occurrence with Continental tires on my 2012 Volvo xc 70. Side wall shredded while my wife was driving 35 mph causing blowout at 14,000 miles first blowout occurred when vehicle was only a few months old. Volvo replaced tire and charged me $270 saying defective tires were not covered under warranty. These are the Continental 4X4 contact tires and I am now replacing all 4 tires with only 14,000 miles with another brand.
