so im ridin down the road today and my f'in tire pops. just out of the blue, no nail or anything, just popped. only 9k on the car too. so i put on the spare which was really easy but rides like crap. gonna take it to the chrysler place tomorrow casue it should be under warranty. but I was pissed. it was the side wall that gave and there was like 3 little holes on the side wall so I really don't know what happend.

Sorry stunna, but sure glad it didn't result in an accident or damage to your car!

I hope that it wasn't as a result of being slashed; that could be considered vandalism. It would probably be covered under your insurance comprehensive, but the deductible may be to high to help you out any.
That is the reason that I carry 0 deductible on my vehicles. If the state puts down gravel when it snows, and I loose a windshield because of it, I just get a new windshield, no problem. The last time that I checked the difference in premuim for $100 ded, vs. 0 wasn't much, and if you have 2-3 vehicles, the chance of loosing 1 windshield a year is pretty good. Just my $.02

I don't believe a flat tire is covered under warranty. Those tires will be expensive from a dealer. Order from Tire Rack for $97.

Tires on new Chrysler vehicles are covered by the tire manufacturer, not the dealer, not chrysler. IF your dealer sells that brand of tire, they may be able to help you, but you'll most likely end up going to an authorized tire dealer of the brand on your C. (Sorry, don't remember the brand).

A Magnum owner had a Conti self sealing tire fail on him.

He said his dealer replaced the tire. I would think Conti would handle the replacement. His dealer may have been the exception.

Stunna55 - Try calling the Continental phone number listed in your car's papers. Had a flat in mine due to a razor blade. They told me to remove the blade and it would seal up - which it did. BUT, they sent me a new one anyway under the category "buyer does not feel safe driving on the tire now".
Worth a try.

i actually had one of these not seal up on me before and I took it to the dealer. they called cont. and they said if it didn't seal up that they would replace it. they patched it and it sealed, so i didn't have to worry about anything. but now I dont know if the dealer is gonna give a free one or If i have to order it. the problem is that I'm at my parents house for the weekend and need to go back down south tom. so I really can't wait. But I guess I'll see what happens tom. and I dont think anyone did anything to it, I was at a resteraunt and then drove about 7 miles then it happend, and it was pouring down rain while I was eating so I doubt anyone did anything to it, but you never know these days.
