B.S.. Gm replaced 4 tires for me under warranty.. due to mis alignment from the factory. It was not the tire's that were bad it was a misalignment from the factory.
Prob right because a blowout is caused by an road hazard or accident.GM may replace and bill back the tire manufacturer as a courtesy to owner providing the tire had a manuf defect. In this case the valve broke as manuf defect or maybe not.
The vehicle wasn't aligned right at the factory. That caused bad tire wear. GM paid for new tires, even though their warranty probably has a "incidental or consequential clause" where they don't really have to. It wasn't a tire issue, and the tire warranty didn't come into play.
No one said anything even remotely like blowout/road hazard/accident/tire defect/broken valve. And the tire manufacturer's warranty isn't going to cover uneven wear caused by misalignment.
