i had my X in about a week ago for a faulty door latch, and just had the remaining tread measured at 4/32 on the inside of the rear tires (@15,800 miles) - wear was even all around, just 1/32 less on the front. They inflated all to 45 psi. I have the original 20 in continentals. I figured I'm good for another 5 to 7K.
Then the next day I got a low-pressure warning, down to 36 psi. I added air. Then Friday again. Then this morning it was down to 36 again....so I pulled into a Big-O with a "free flat repair" sign. They checked and said its not repairable, as it's too close to the sidewall - but if I have a warranty, I should go to the dealer (their words). On an unrelated note, it was comical watching the tech try to open the door....evidently they'd had a few S's in, but no X's yet - he couldn't figure out why the handles wouldn't present!
Am I going to be stuck with buying new tires, or will I luck out and have it covered? Anyone have similar experience? If I am going to have to buy new tires anyway, I want to see the options out there other than just what I am offered through Tesla.
Any input?
