| Driving on the pa. turnpike at 65 mph, hit a small pot hole and the back left tire blew. i needed to be towed because the car air pump did not work. this was the second flat in one month. the first was due to hitting a curb at 2mph which punctured the side wall of the tire which had to be replaced. *tr | |||

| A blow out of a tire occurred while driving a 2013 hyundai elantra limited with 543 total miles on the car. the speed of the car at the time was 25 mph on a smooth road surface in a residential area. in talking to other owners, and searching the internet, we find that premature tire failure occurs frequently on the elantra. fortunately, this incident happened at a very slow speed otherwise there may well have been a fatality involved. | |||
