Perishing tyres

Yes, they will contact me with the outcome of the examination. They have said if a fault is found a full refund MAY be given or if not a concession may be offered. I have my suspicions that they will say it's something I have done and will give me foc all but then if they haven't been destroyed have to return them back to me. They don't have the right to take my tyres but are within the law to examine them before any offer of compensation  can be made. I got all the legal jargon from the CAB. As for someone independent examining them, again I have to give them the opportunity first to examine their own product.  Not what I wanted to hear but before I pass judgement will have to wait for the outcome.

Fair play mate. You have done what was required and you always have the fitters to fall back on if anything unterwards happens or you want to question anything.  :thumbup  for taking at fare as you have as most, including myself would have done nowt more than likely.

Hello Foccer's, just heard back from Michelin and they have given me an allowance of 60% on the rear tyre and 50% on the front. This comes to £134.90 although no explanation was given as to the cause of the defect and no liability was admitted but at least it's took the sting out of the cost of replacements.

Nice one on getting some money back, i'm on my second set of PR3's and personally can't fault them, so does sound like more of a one off.

Interesting that they won't comment on the problem and yet have given you some money back, indicating that they are partly at fault...

Either that or they're just a good company who want customers to return..

Glad you got some money back to cover some of the cost of the new rubber.
