we had a blowout last week on the highway coming back from fl.
the tire was only 8 months old.  we were forced to buy a non michelin 
michelins were not available.  we have documentation statint that the belt 
in the tire snapped & the tire was defective.   there are no michelin 
dealers in the area(rome,n.y.)  what are our options?  should we be entitled
to a new tire from michelin?  model #xw4  p215/70r15
