Use of a can of tire sealant voided road hazard warranty

Very interesting and honestly not surprising. One manufacturer will always take a chance to blame the other manufacturer anytime they can even if it is just as a scapegoat. I personally....knock on rubber have ever had a tire go bad on me I. The 20+ years I have driven and owned cars. The last time I was in one that did have a blow out was back in 1998 which back then they didn't have the types of stuff they have now.

This is only the second time this has happened in my Yaris. The last time was almost 200,000 miles ago on I-10 in Louisiana. The sealant worked well enough that time to get me back (in the opposite direction) to the next town. There was a Wal-Mart in that town and I was able to get a 'same model as the other 3' new tire. My previous car was 2001 Suzuki Swift (new to 151k + miles in 5 years 6 weeks) and IIRC, I never had to use sealant with that car. Before That?....I don't remember .
