Tire is beginning to crack around treads. Production week 1221. I have contacted Continental, and they are informing me I need to remove my tire and cut a hole in it for the warranty to be honored. This motorcycle is my means of transportation, and I cannot remove it and cut a hole until I receive a replacement.

Owner report 11528883 · 2023-06-26 (June 26, 2023)
90/90/21 Tire tread began to separate. This fell under Continental recall. Continental will not issue my reimbursement. I filled out paperwork, sent replacement tire receipt, damaged the sidewall to render tire unusable, and sent photos of this. The replacement tire was mounted and recall tire disposed of. Continental is now stating they will not issue my refund without the load rating photo, which is not possible because the shop disposed of it. They had already emailed me stating the process has begun.

Emerging complaint spikes
Complete months in the latest six months with at least 10 complaints, at least twice the preceding 12-month average, and at least three square-root deviations above that average.
This is a descriptive screening rule, not a statistical defect finding. Publicity and reporting changes can increase submissions.
No complete months meet the spike thresholds for this selection.
Equal-age model-year comparison
Model-wide cumulative reports during the first three or five calendar years, starting with the model year (age 0). Only fully elapsed windows are compared.
2017: 1 complaints · 2018: 13 complaints
| Model year | Through age 0 | Through age 1 | Through age 2 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017 | 1 | 1 | 1 |
| 2018 | 0 | 4 | 13 |
Date coverage across each selected cohort
| Year | Incident dates used | Filing date fallbacks | Excluded dates |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2017 | 4 | 0 | 0 |

Incident date is preferred when valid and no later than filing; otherwise filing date is used. Model year approximates age. Equal observation time does not adjust for sales, distance driven or reporting delays. One complaint linked to multiple model years can appear in each cohort.
