While driving on expressway alert notification displayed that driver side rear tire pressure was low. These are MOE tires so there is no spar tire and should be able to drive at low speed. Car was bought new and had less than 17,000 miles on the tires. Found nearest exit from expressway and drove slowly to nearby service station. Left driver side tire was flat and would not fill with air at service station. Began slowly driving to my home which was about 5 miles away when had to stop again because of tire noise. Pulled off street and found driver side rear tire was significantly damaged.(see photo) Called tow truck and had car towed about a mile to my home since this incident occurred on a US holiday. Nail found in tire. (see photo). Crack also found in passenger side rear tire. ( see photo)
