 At first, i thought we had a pebble in our tread as we motored on a secondary, paved road. upon turning on highway 11 the sound heightened, so we pulled to side of road to find a flat on the right rear. after changing tire i several times closely observed the flat tire finding no holes or cuts. the toyota dealer found a slash, allegedly, and placed 3 plugs. i am reporting this incident in the event it fits into a larger pattern of failures with this tire model. mahalo and thanks.*ak( dot number: tire size: p175/65r14 )
