Michelin Tyres — Quality of Tubeless Tyres

Address:

Bangalore, Karnataka

Hello,
I have purchased New Honda City 2011 V AT model in March 2011 and it is fitted with Michelin tyres( front and rear). Within a month of driving the tyre burst while avoiding one of the potholes on road. I somehow repaired it and again within next 4 months it bursted and now beyond repair as per mechanic. When I asked the mechanic about why the new tyre would burst within a month, he was speechless and had a doubt on tyre quality. They adviced me to replace that tyre with new tyre. Even i was surprised to see the tyre condition due to the impact of small pothole. I had used Bridgestone (5yrs without replacing any tyre) earlier with my old vehicle and had travelled to mountains and really the worst road but never experienced such situation.

Now after a year of travelling 11k with my new vehicle, i have seen the problem with another(2nd) Micheline tyre and can see small cut mark on the side of tyre. I am really wondering about the quality of these tyres fitted with my vehicle.
It a real pain for me to replace 2 tyres in a year with out travelling too much (only 12 k till today). I would like michline to take a note of this and help me before i loose the faith in quality of Micheline tyres. Appreciate your quick reply and response.
