........So again, anyone with a TPMS have a blowout?? Has it warned you of a tire loosing pressure?....
I am extremely interested in the answer to that question. That would help sort out this issue some more.
The failure mode of interest doesn't result in a pressure loss - sudden or otherwise. HOWEVER, in the course of the failure, it is possible for the casing to lose integrity AFTER the initial failure.
So if we get reports of a loss of pressure first, with a failure second, we can be sure the problem isn't in the tire. But if we get the failure first, followed by a pressure loss later (and by later I'm talking at least 10 seconds), then that's indicative of a tire issue.
Of course, if the reports are in between, we can't sort this out.
