“I was driving to work in my 2015 madza6 when I noticed the car is swerving a bit to the right. I thought my car had a small alignment problem. So I continue driving as I did not see here any beeps and there's no warning on my dashboard. It was about 3 to 4 miles later when all of the sudden, the car was swerving a bit to the left and right and I can hear growling sound which seems to come from the tires. I was driving at about 45 MPH at that time and there were some snow and ice on the road due to the 3 to 4 inches of snow overnight. …”
NHTSA complaint #10820460, filed 2016-01, 8,065 miles“While driving home from the shore today going 70mph I heard a popping sound and within 15 second my 2015 Mazda 6 13,000 miles was out of control I barley made it crossing four lanes of traffics to get onto the shoulder. Once I exited the car I noticed the left rear tire p245/65r19 sport was the issue upon further examination I noticed the tire broke off approx 1 above where the DOT numbers are located. The inside of tire to the rim also broke off completely from the rim. The tire was still completely round but was separated from the rim. …”
NHTSA complaint #10735629, filed 2015-07, 13,500 miles“Last week the while driving the car it was felt that the vehicle was going out of control and a metallic knocking sound was coming from the front right side. After parking the vehicle it was noticed that the front right tire had completely deflated. But he TPMS did not show any abnormality ever during the drive. The tire was damaged to an extent that it had to be replaced. Thankfully this happened at a low speed and it appears that the TPMS sensors (on which there was an earlier recall) is not working correctly.”
