The dealer would pretty much have to take care of themselves and eat the cost. If they turn it in for credit (the failed casing has to be returned to the manufacturer for inspection to get a credit), most likely they will not get anything for a tire that was improperly mounted. The people at the manufacturer will be able to tell what caused a failure from improper installation, and a failure caused by a tube put in is very easy to spot.
Not trying to start any arguments, but 22 years in the tire business dealing with all of the major manufacturers gives me a little different perspective of how things work on the warrantees.
