    I wonder if you might be abe to get a new tire thru the road hazard tire warranty that came with the car. Might be worth a read of the tire warranty.

    Don't think there is one. Only manufacturing defect warranty, through tire maker, not Toyota.

    Except the warranty on my Gen 4 refers to the tire warranty. The warranty for my Bridgestone Ecopia 422 tires excludes OEM tires from the warranty.
    IOW, there IS no warranty on the tires. :eek:

    Not even manufacturing defects, through Bridgestone?

    Took a look at mine, from Michelin, says:

    "warrantied against defects in manufacture or workmanship", and that is pro-rated by tread depth.

    I think if a person gets a flat tire with 50 miles on a new car. That calls for a couple new tires be they front or rear. Wherever the flat tire occurred. If you have 10k on a set of tires and the car, different story.
