In reply to the discussion: Hyundai...What da fuck? [View all]Dagstead Bumwood
(3,655 posts)10. I have a '19 and it definitely has a doughnut
as I learned two weeks ago. We were downtown when i got a low pressure warning. My tire was at 22 psi. By the time we reached the end of the block it was just 17. Pulled into a gas station and by that time it was a four. There was a huge chunk of metal lodged in it and the tire was not repairable.
Funny thing is when I was reading my email the next day, the car had emailed me twice to give me updated pressure readings and warn me to do something about it. It's a great time to be alive.

For what it's worth, I've had one flat tire in something like 15 years.
