TIRES

upon inspecting the right front tire of my 2010 audi a6, i noticed a "bubble" in the side wall of the tire. the bubble was about 1 1/2 inches in diameter and bulged about 1/2 inch outward. because this can compromise the safety of the tire, i requested the audi dealer replace the tire with a new one. mileage at time of failure 6500.
