Aero tire blowout

A few weeks ago, my right rear tire started leaking - a few pounds of pressure a day. I had the tires rotated (Pirelli P-Zeros) and the leak patched at the dealer. The mileage on the tires is approximately 8,800. Tonight, driving home, the tire that had been repaired just last week went flat (now on the front right) at approx. 50 mph. I pulled over and got it changed, with no obvious signs of damage to the wheel. The tire, however, appears to be destroyed. I called the dealer, and am taking it in tomorrow morning. Who should be responsible? Should my Pirelli warranty cover this? Or is the dealer responsible due to a faulty repair? On the phone, the dealer did not sound willing to admit responsibility. My thought is that their repair should have held up, and if the tire was not repairable, they should have told me so at the time. Any suggestions?
