I'm assuming on hohenwald48's post above, his TPM system wasn't installed on his jeep being towed. If it was, then something wasn't working right - lthough I have heard stories of tread separation happening but leaving the inner carcass intact. At the very least, if the TPMS had temperature monitoring I'm sure it would have alarmed.
Actually, it was installed on the Jeep. It just didn't alarm. Have no idea why as the screw on sender was long lost on the side of the expressway when the flat happened. I don't know if the tire went slowly flat or if it was a blowout. By the time I was alerted and pulled over it was just a rim with tire beads attached. I never knew a thing and still could see no evidence thru mirrors and camera even after being alerted. Looking in the camera the Jeep never swerved or vibrated. Flat was on right rear of Jeep.
Folks should not be so quick to tell the OP what he "should" have felt, seen or smelled.
