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.
