You probably ran over something on the road! It happens all the time! If the tire had a defect, it wouldn't have lasted 12 days!

Call the manufacturer. I would think that they have a warranty against manufacturing defects. The "insurance" that the shop is talking about is for nails and such. And when this thing gets resolved, then you'll know about asking about the manufacturer's warranty before buying the tires. Also check your receipt. They may have info in writing that you can present to the tire shop.
