Tire fail, tired of these failures

About two weeks ago I had my front right tire replaced due to some construction debree slashing the side. Wasn't to happy about it, but no biggie. Just yesterday after my shift I'm leaving my job when I notice the (!). Initially I had though service engine. I haven't had the time to read the manual because I've been working pretty much 12 hour shifts everyday. I did get that "comforting" educating on a Facebook page on the site on how that was air pressure related. So come this morning, I give it some air, but now before noticing that I have a bubble on the side. What would be a proffessional and more experienced opinion on cause of the bubble. Could it be tire defect? Weather related? Any suggestions? Will post images soon.

Weather related. Tires don't bubble nearly as often as they should due to purely defects. Usually from old tires, or extreme weather changes.

Thank you. It's Chicago. We went from 70 last week to 30 today. From t-shirts to long sleeves. It's still under warranty. Hopefully I don't have to pay for the tire again and just the labor.

its tire separation which was proabably caused by the rough roads in chicago. its basically the rubber separating from the inner tire. I hit a pothole through a canyon once and it cause sidewall separation to my brand new michelin pss
