Greetings all!
Just had the return call from the Dealer Principle and it is generally good news I bring you all.
MMUK have acknowledged that there is an issue and are in discussions with the factory for a fix.
At the moment there are a few tweaks that they will suggest dealers do when cars are returned and MMUK will give a mileage allowance on any tyres that need replacing prematurely.
One line of thought Nicole at MMUK suggested might have a bearing is the make up of the tyre wall and the load bearing therein. MMUK may suggest a different rating of tyre which would then mean a completely new set of new tyres F.O.C!
Not the remedy we would all require, but a big step in the right direction.

Get down to your dealer and pester them to get onto MMUK and speak to Nicole to get upto speed with the situation......

my 07 came with Toyo Proxes and I noticed much rubber dust on rocker panel as I installed the splash guards today. Is the the tire everyone is having issues with?
