“I bought my car-used (5-4-20) with 18250 miles on it 3 days later (5-7-20) took a short road trip. While on the highway, all of a sudden low tire pressure light went on and about 2 minutes later the sidewall went out... Thankfully I was already slowing down. It was the rear drivers side tire. A nice person stopped to help me change the tire. When he removed it the entire inside side wall looked like someone took a knife to it all the way around.”

After driving the vehicle for a few days, I noticed this sound coming from the rear driver's side. To be sure, I had my brother in law drive the vehicle.

It came with bridgestone ecopia hl 422 plus tires in size 235 65r17 as standard equipment. At 9,292 miles on september 11th I had an oil change and service which included checking tire pressures.

But then I heard the dreaded flapping sound of a flat tire on my vehicle. …”
NHTSA complaint #11270958, filed 2019-10, 10,080 miles“Driving my car. Heard a noise, stopped as soon as I could. Probably about 1.5 miles. I had a flat. It wasn't one of those big flat tires you get and you know it within 10 seconds. My tire pressure light never came on. As soon as the spare tire was put on, the pressure light came on. I got a new tire at the closest tire place. It wasn't the same manufacturer, but it was the same tire specifications, because they didn't have the exact tire. I've done that many times in the past, with no problem. Well, the tire pressuring system light kept going on. I kept resetting it and it would go on again. …”
