235/50/R20. Found driver side rear tire completely flat in personal garage yesterday morning and passenger front tire had low psi warning on as well. Used the fix-a-flat kit that came with my car to fill driver rear and able to get to shop. Car/tires have 5000 miles on them. Tire shop could not find anything wrong with the driver rear tire but stated a puncture was found in passenger front tire well and did patch that. I see this has been reported before on a Toyota Bz4x same year and same tire with mileage the same as well. I am concerned this could be an issue going forward and am scared to drive this car now any distance especially since there is no spare and I have to purchase a replacement cylinder for the fix-flat.
The contact owns a 2023 Toyota BZ4X equipped with Bridgestone Tires, Tire Line: Turanza EL450, Tire Size: 235/50/R20, DOT Number: EJYB. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the low tire pressure warning light illuminated on the instrument panel, prompting her to pull to the shoulder of the roadway. After a visual inspection of the exterior of the vehicle, the driver observed that the front passenger side tire was flat. The vehicle was towed to the dealer. After the dealer inflated the tire, the contact observed severe bubbling of the sidewall, requiring the tire to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was 5,000.
