Why Is One of My Khyber’s Tires Losing Pressure Faster Than the Others?

I’ve noticed that one tire on my Suzuki Khyber seems to lose pressure much quicker than the other three. I check the tire every few days, and it’s noticeably softer than the others. What could be causing this? Could it be due to the tire itself, the valve, o r something else?

If one tire is losing pressure faster than the others, it usually indicates an issue with the tire, valve, o r rim on that specific wheel.

Possible Causes:
Tire Puncture o r Damage: Even a small puncture o r sidewall damage can cause one tire to lose pressure quicker than the others.

Leaky Valve Stem: A faulty o r worn-out valve stem could be leaking air more from one tire.

Rim Seal Issues: If the tire is not properly sealed to the rim, air could escape more rapidly from one tire.

Uneven Wear o r Misalignment: If your vehicle’s alignment o r suspension is off, one tire may bear more weight and wear unevenly, leading to quicker air loss.

Fix:
Check for Punctures: Inspect the tire for visible punctures o r nails. A patch o r plug might be sufficient if the puncture is small.

Inspect the Valve Stem: Ensure the valve stem is securely tightened and in good condition.

Check Wheel Alignment: Get the alignment checked to ensure that your vehicle is distributing weight evenly across all tires.
