AS I WAS DRIVING ONTO AN EXIT FROM THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 60-80 KMH, THE WARNING LIGHT ON MY CAR SPEEDOMETER DISPLAYED INDICATING A PROBLEM WITH A TIRE. THE INFORMATION DISPLAY STATED THAT MY TIRES' AIR PRESSURE WERE NOMINAL. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE CAR BEGAN TO SHIMMY. I RE-CHECKED THE TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE DISPLAY AND NOTICED THAT THE REAR RIGHT TIRE HAD 1PSI WHILE THE OTHER TIRES HAD 30 PSI. I IMMEDIATELY DECELERATED AND TURNED INTO THE BREAK DOWN LANE. AS I WAS DOING THIS, THE TIRE BLEW OUT. MY PASSENGER AND I EXITED THE CAR AND NOTICED THAT THE TREAD COMPLETED DETECTED FROM THE SIDEWALL. *LN

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
