This auto is not driven often due to the fact that the owner is out of town for work more than she is home. The car was driven on a three hour trip when the sidewall of the michelin latitude tour 225/65/r17 tire blew out. She was able to just make it off the road and change the tire. Upon further inspection another tire shows sidewall cracking that covers the outside sidewall.
The light is showing “0“ psi, service tire monitor system, tire sensor but not sure if it’s the tire or dash.
