Red Signal - Flat tire

About 10minutes after I left my house last night I saw this red signal on the dash. I turned the car off and switched it on again and it was still there. Got me kind of worried. I got to my friends house 3mins later and the rear right tire was missing air. We left and got to our next destination 2mins later and the tire was completely empty. No air whatsoever in it.
I then remembered the tires are RunFlat so I could still drive for another 80km at 80km/h. I took the car back home so I could check up on it in the morning. I was scared + worried so didnt exceed 40km/h.
I ended up calling BMW but today is a holiday, saturday and monday as well so I cnt get anything fixed until then unless I drive to France wich is 15minutes away.
I went to my local gas station to put air in the tires but it seems as if there is def a problem. We picked up the car on the 24th of feb. Not even two months and check out the bad luck.

I'm guessing once a run flat goes bad it is done and can't be fixed??

Luckily you were close to your house.
