3)I bought the depth gauge today. I measured it at several places on the tire and consistently got 8/32 in the center and outside and 7/32 on the inner groove.

The spec is 10/32.

I'm starting to wonder what’s going on. I'll call the dealer tomorrow.

Thanks for help

Kras, yes, I agree with you, that is very-very strange. Make the call, you have good proof and information. Let us know how it turns out.

How did you pay? Credit card? Might want to call them too.
