Tire pop noise at 65mph - Loaner
I have a dealership loaner and was driving down the road and heard a loud pop.
The tire blew out and went town to zero PSI. I didn't hit anything at all.
what would cause this tire to blow out and lose pressure so quick ?
Without looking they said it was a nail and that they were going to charge me.
Sounds like a defective tire or pre existing condition.
Thoughts?

You hit something, even if you didn't see it.
As mike said, these tires are easy to break, especially with such short sidewalls on such a heavy car.
If you are driving your car and the tire blows, aren't you responsible?
