Purchased 4 tires for my AWD Subaru from Costco. The driver side rear tire kept losing air a few days after installing them. Pumped air in it a few times at home. Took the car back to Costco. They found a leak that they repaired. Brand new tires leaking was my problem with Michelin 225/55R18 Primacy tour A/S.

Tire pressure monitor indicated low pressure. Right rear tire needed air. Tire continued to slowly leak and the pressure monitor tripped again days later. Mentioned problem to dealership during service. Dealership found no problem with the tire and properly inflated all wheels. A few days later the tire pressure was low (tire pressure monitor tripped again). Bringing vehicle back to the dealer for possible replacement of tire. Probably a problem isolated to my specific car, but logging the incident in case there are more tires out there with similar problems.
