NHTSA Complaint #10651607 — 2012 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

HAD JUST HAD MY CAR IN FOR MY 20,000 MILE CHECK ONE WEEK AGO. HAD TIRES ROTATED AND ALL THE OTHER RECOMMENDED SERVICE. WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, GOOD WEATHER IN ATLANTA, GA, AND TIRE PRESSURE GAUGE WENT ON. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY (FORTUNATELY I WAS IN A LOCATION WHERE I COULD AND IT WAS EVENING WITH LESS TRAFFIC THAN THE NORM) TO FIND A STATION TO CHECK TIRES AND PUT IN AIR IN. ONE TIRE HAD A BUBBLE/BULGE IN THE SIDEWALL AND ALL FOUR TIRES WERE SHOWING A PRESSURE OF 29/30....DOWN THAT MUCH IN ONE WEEK WITH NO SIGNIFICANT WEATHER CHANGES, I HAVEN'T HIT ANY POTHOLES OR BUMPS, OR ANY REASON WHY THIS SHOULD BE THE CASE. VERY FRUSTRATED AND AFRAID TO DRIVE, ESPECIALLY AFTER READING ALL THE HORROR STORIES ABOUT THE WHEELS/RIMS/TIRES ON THIS CAR BEING THE WRONG SIZE FOR THE CAR. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS SOONER RATHER THAN LATER BEFORE SOMEONE DIES! WHY MUST THAT ALWAYS HAPPEN BEFORE ANYTHING IS DONE? *TR
