Was driving home from work which is no longer than a 5 minute drive. it was heavy rain outside. about 2 minutes from my home, my low tire light went on. very soon after my tire went flat. i pulled to the curb in front of my home. the tire rolled off my car and the rim hit the ground, destroying the rim. my sentra is a 2015 with 9000 miles on it, well maintained. how does this happen. should this be a warranty item or recall? repairs fro rim and tire came to $600.00.
