Not sure why this is in the W204 C63 section but if the sidewall has any bulge at all the tire is garbage

Tire is trash. Swap it out soon to avoid any blow outs at high speed.

Change it. It's only going to get worse and eventually blow out.

Yes, the tire is no good. Your tire warranty should cover this type of failure. It is a workmanship issue.
