Default Rear Tire Problem

I noticed that it was gradually taking a lot more effort to keep my bike under control after i had my rear tire replaced a few months ago. The other day moved pretty good on me so I took it to the closest stealer to get it checked out. They are telling me that the Metzler I bought is defective and wiggles side to side a half inch and that it needs to be replaced. They will not cooperate with me as far as talking to the dealer that I purchased the tire from or to Metzler to have it replaced. I havn't spoken to Metzler of the dealer that I purchased the tire from yet about the bunk tire. Has anybody dealt with a problem like this before?
