 Description of the problemThe front passenger side tire has blown out twice in the past year. The car was parked, and when i started the car and started driving the low tire light came on. After stopping to get air i discovered the tire was completely flat, and i had been driving on a flat tire. Both times the rim was also bent and had to be sent to a shop to repair it (more money and more time away from my car and paying for a rental car). It was the same exact situation both times. I didn't hit anything or run over anything. In total, this is the fourth or fifth time i have had to replace this tire during the duration of the car's life, and it has never been due to hitting anything or running over anything. It just mysteriously happens. I purchased the car new in oct 2012 and there are currently about 57000 miles on the car. This is a major inconvenience in terms of cost and time, but even more importantly, i constantly fear and dreadfully anticipate the next time i will have a flat and never feel completely safe when driving. I have read online that the use of 17" wheels on this car is not appropriate, and i would like for this to be looked into, as no one with this problem has been able to get any help from hyundai. Thank you.
