Tire Sidewall Problems of Kia Motor Sorento

- I was driving down 55 mph. On dark, busy highway in sarasota, florida (fruitville rd. ) at approximately 6:15 a. M. On Friday, January 23, 2025. - suddenly, without warning, the sidewall of the rear passenger side tire completely blew out in a perfect circle around the entire outside of edge. - the tire is currently available for inspection. - the goodyear dealer claims that the blowout was caused due to underinflation. However, the tread pattern of the tire shows no signs of underinflation. - since this is my wife's car, I check the tire pressure every other Sunday evening knowing that she'll be driving it to work the next day. - had there been heavier traffic, the blow out could have caused a major accident if someone was following closely behind me. - the car's tpms sensors weren't illuminated to indicate there was any low tire pressure.

I have the kumho crugen premium kl33 235 60 r18 tires. They came with the kia Sorento. I was driving down the freeway and the car started shaking and I pulled over to see the tire with only 16 thousand miles on them with the sidewall cut through around the whole tire, thread seperation. I took the tire to the dealer where I bought the car and they could not find any bruise or cut that would cause it to blow out. They sent it to kumho for warantee evaluation.

Driving on nys thruway at 65 mph. Sidewall blew out. No punctures, good tread and pressure. My 3 year odl son was in the car. Replaced with full size spare.
