Looks like a air bubble inside the mold. Yes, return it quickly!

I was always taught that a blowout was the tube blowing its way through a hole in the tire and expanding/exploding. Just goes to show that even at 64 years old, you are still not too old to learn.......

BTW, even knowing this, I STILL refuse to ride on a tire with a tube.......
