[Resolved]  Apollo Tyres Ltd — Tubeless tyre defect

Address:

Bangalore, Karnataka

I bought a new Hyundai i20 in September 2010 from the dealer , Advaith Motors pvt ltd, Vasanth nagar , Bangalore. The car was delivered with brand new Appollo tubeless tyres. On[protected], I noticed a bulge in the front right tyre side wall. There is no external damage or breakage noticed on tyre. Threrfore I presumed that the defect was due to faulty manufacture and accordingly I approached the dealer top replace the tyre. The tyre was sent to Appollo tyres for technical evaluation. On such evaluation the warranty claim has been rejected on the ground that the defect is due to 'Impact brake". I wish to emphasise , being a laymen , I do not understand this technical jargon. All I know is that there is no external evidence to show that there is any abuse to the tyre, like a break or cut etc. As far as impact is concerned, the tyre is meant to take impacts of Indian roads, otherwise it should be deemed that the quality of the tyre is defective since the vehicle has just run 6000km. What do i do next.
