As much as you might like to create a case of compensation akin to the Ford Explorer, you won't succeed as it is an entirely different situation. Michelins are sound top brand tires and no generic faults have been identified. It is most likely that your blowout case was due to damage of the tire while in use on your car, it happens to other motorists every day. So go away!
