    2005 Accord with Michelin "Energy" high-gas-mileage tires, 5000 miles on
    the odometer.

    One tire develops a large crack in the sidewall. I called the 800 number on
    the
    warrantee pamphlet and was told that it was caused by a road hazard. If dry
    asphalt is a hazard, then he's right. I guess I didn't expect them to
    honor the manufacturing defect warrantee. I sold the 3 other ones as
    "take-offs" and bought 4 new all season tires with 50,000 mile guarantee
    plus road hazard (reputable brand). Owning a French product goes against
    my grain anyhow.

    Ah Mon amee,
    Michelin Tires are made in the USA - the French part of the USA?
