Tire Pressure Light On Problems of Toyota Yaris

The exact tires/car I have were not listed. They are: 2017 Toyota Yaris IA toyo proxes a27 tires today I was driving my car on surface streets. I was stopped at a red light and a warning came on that said I had low tire pressure. I pulled off to the side of the road at the next block to check my tire pressure and discovered my tire was completely shredded. I had only driven 2 miles from where I had started and my tires were fine when I left. This particular problem has occurred twice. Once on August 1st, 2018 as I parked on a residential street (the low pressure light didn't even come on at this time) and the second time today, October 3rd, 2018. Both times I have had to replace the tire because it is completely shredded. I have never seen a tire explode like this and I have seen it happen twice over the course of two months in a 16 month old car with only 20k miles on it. I had a 200k mile 2002 Honda and while it had flats once every 5-6 years maybe, I never had a tire explode like this and I drive less now than I did with my Honda. There is clearly something wrong with these tires that makes them so susceptible to shredding like that. It makes me very scared to continue driving. I worry the next time this happens I will be on a freeway or not somewhere easy to pull over to the side of the road.
