[@tvracingparts]

You could contact the tire manufacturer and request warranty or have the dealership contact them. Most people don’t do this because it’s a hassle

[@sigmahyperion955]

Any decent tire shop should do this for you and automatically reduce the cost of your replacement tire by the pro-rated value of the old one as a replacement claim. No need for the customer to do anything and, in general, customers (in lieu of dealers/distributors) are discouraged from initiating these claims themselves as they are a bit onerous for both parties to handle after-the-fact. The only potential hang-up here is that as an OE tire, it has no road hazard warranty. So a dealer would want to make certain there was no indication of an outside cause to the blow-out before preemptively extending warranty coverage.

Doug you can easily reset the maintenance light yourself in the settings on your dashboard! Also Toyota does not charge you for the first 5 maintenance services, it’s called Toyota care! (I work at a Toyota lol)

[@michaelgonzalez3059]

Also since you bought the car new, they usually give you a warranty package called Tire and wheel package (TWPK) that you can replace your tires and or wheels if anything happens to them for free. Check to see if you have it before buying it out of pocket

[@sawyermartin4434]

​@@michaelgonzalez3059They don't "usually give it to you." Tire & wheel is a service contract that you're offered in the finance department. It costs money. Haha. It's never "given" to anyone.

Toyota does not charge for this because it has already been included in the price of the vehicle. NOTHING is free in a capitalist world.

One thing I love about getting tired from Discount Tire/America’s Tire is that their warranty follows you around the country. Sure, you had a 3 day wait, but maybe there’s a store along the route where it’s in stock. Small tire guys just can’t compete with that convenience

[@s.a.c2927]

Doug, regarding the dangers of the shoulder, I agree with you. I had a college classmate from Germany get hit while he was stopped on the side of the Autobahn and even though he was still in his car, he ended up in the hospital in a coma for a long time.

That's interesting that the spare in the Sequoia doesn't have a TPMS sensor - my 2008 LX570 has 5 sensors (1 for spare as well). I guess that's cost cutting, or perhaps savings in the Toyota.

I can *Kinda* relate to this.

It is a process to get it changed like he mentioned, but I was very happy to see that full size spare Michelin tire under the truck. I'm ready to get new tires, but like Doug said, it's stupid to buy new tires so early. I'm getting rid of the Wild Peak for sure though.

Do you think this problem could be from not using the car (and tires) for long periods of time? Could the tires have gotten dry rotted? New Land Cruiser has tpms on the spare! 5k interval is to sell you a 5k oil change. I got 2 keys when I got my Toyota last month. Sorry this happened to you.

That maintenance required light can just be reset in the settings, just keep doing oil changes every 5k miles and reset at that point

[@Mquin02]

The tire most likely blew out because you mentioned that you keep them at a low tire pressure the entire time you're in Nantucket and drive that way. With it being so heavy and squishing the tires it heats up the sidewall from all of the flex at higher than off road speeds. I understand why you would do that, I actually do it all the time, but my car is very light. It probably should have lasted longer though.

Toyota doesn't want the floor mats getting under the accelerator pedal and cause "unintentionally acceleration"! I've had a flat tire in that same area lol. I drive I-81 between I-66 and I-40 and across I-40 a lot. I did DC to San Diego and immediately back in my Silverado 3500 pulling a enclosed car trailer with a friend's MazdaSpeed 3 and his stuff on the way out and a RX8 on the way back. I went 40 to US-95 down to I-10 then I-10 to Scottsdale to get the RX8. Up I-17 to I-40, back up I-81, I-66, I-495, I-95 to home. I took my time on the way out because my friend was with me, I didn't let him drive lol, so we stopped to see some stuff. Overall I did the round trip in 9 days.
