Re: Continental procontact (front) 225 45 R17 and (rear)245 40 17- on September 11, 2014 at 306 miles tire displayed bulge next to "C" of Continental of front passenger side tire. The car was sitting for a week not being driven when the bulge appeared. I was not going to drive on a major highway and chance a blow out accident. Car was towed to mb freehold where they told me I went over a pothole. I didn't believe that to be the case but I was at there mercy. Tire was replaced at my expense and I was able to drive home; November 8,2014 the new replaced tire of the September 11, 2014 event( front passenger side tire) had a blow out while driving 25 miles an hour. The car was garaged for approx 2 weeks and not driven, then for 2 days driven locally to do errands, then driven on highway an hour to my destination and an hour back when in my neighborhood at 25 miles per hour the car was out of control and the replaced tire blew. The malfunction light went on- it was dark and I had no choice then to drive my house....the wheel which wasn't scraped before is now scraped... car doesn't accelerate but jerks and jolts when trying to pass or change lanes/dangerous on highways.
