After two month of using a new car model Outback 2013 the left front tire had emptied at the parking lot. An invisible cut was found that it was necessary to bought a new tire. A weeks later of this event the back left tire is been emptying very frequently since. Apparently the original tires of the car has invisible defects that get the tire to empty with the normal road use. This car has a frequently signal for verification and filling of the tires.
