I track my car a lot and it has only happened once, so I figure at worst it's only going to be an occasional nuisance.

Other than that they seem pretty good on mine, maybe you got unlucky with a dodgy one?

I've also heard of tyre shops damaging them during tyre fitment on other makes/models, don't know if this could be a potential issue with ours too?
Thanks for the responses. It's been very annoying as I like to do a quick check at the end of my first lap to see how much pressure has built up before I push the tires hard. If I swap the rears side to side the left rear will go out even though that same tire was fine on the right rear.
