Help! Split in one of my stock firestones!

I have the stock POS's on for winter ( i also have summer rims) and with only about 9k on the stock tires, I found a crack in one. The crack is about 2 inches long in the sidewall; it doesnt look like a bump for pothole would have caused it. I think these tires just really suck. Do I have a chance goin to the dealer and complaining? I work for a dealership so I know that they'll say its from wear and tear but Im hoping since these are Firestones, Ill get a new one. What do you guys think?

Mbow is an unknown quantity at this point
You might want to try going to a firestone store as they are the ones who really warantee the tires.

I went to the local shop and got one free of charge. It still doesn't help the fact that the tires suck.
