It is important to properly inspect and repair a tire that has deflated or been punctured.
Why is it important to have my tire properly repaired?
If you’re driving on a tire that continuously loses air or has a puncture, it is very important to
your safety to have it inspected immediately. A service professional should inspect the tire inside
and out to determine whether it can be repaired or needs to be replaced. Flat tire repair services may help to:
-
Properly repair punctures in the tread
-
Prevent further tire damage
-
Maintain tire air pressure at manufacturer recommended levels
How often should I inspect my tires?
You should inspect your tires regularly (at least once a month) for excessive or irregular tread wear, scrapes,
snags, cuts, bulges, cracks, impact damage, punctures, stones or other debris embedded in the tread, or other damages.
If any of these conditions are present, or if you are experiencing continuous pressure loss, the tire should be dismounted
and inspected for damage on the inside and to determine if a repair can be made.
