The driver rear tire may be leaking air and the pressure monitoring system shows the pressure is 27-28. The car was brought brand new from Hyundai of Torrance, CA on 20 Jan 2020 and as of this date, 23 May 2021, the mileage is 2,007 miles. I have taken the car into the dealership twice about the tire (second time was on 20 May 2021) and they keep saying they don't fix tires and it may have a slow leak. I find this unacceptable and I feel like I'm being taken advantage of (I'm a senior citizen). I plan on driving to another state and I want to ensure the safety of myself and passengers. Just now, I checked the pressure monitoring system and the light is not on. At this point, I don't know if it's tire issue or the electronic system issue. Unfortunately, I don't have any documentation, but perhaps the Hyundai dealership have something on their service database/computer.
Was driving down the road about 40 mph, slowed down to about 10 to 15 mph to make a right hand turn when the right rear tire on my 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe VIN: [xxx], exploded ripping several inches into the sidewall. Had no knowledge of hitting anything any time prior to the tire exploding and nothing in the roadway to cause said damage at the sight of the explosion. Temperature at the time of the explosion was about 55 degrees, not to cold or to hot. Had only driven about 3 or 4 miles on the tire prior to explosion, so heat was most likely not part of the problem. Tires were made by hankook tires, dynapro HP2, size 235/65/R17 104H, dot 15M8R rt ho 2719, with about 29,000 miles on the tires, very little wear at all the tire, with air pressure maintained at all times to about 35 to 36 psi which was checked almost daily. Of all of my years of driving have had flat tires, but never have I had a tire just explode as in this instance with this tire. Feel like this should have been reported in case others may have experienced any similar issues with these tires. Hankook, dynapro HP2, 235/65R17 104H, dot 15M8R rt ho 2719.
