If a Tire Goes Flat
It is unusual for a tire to “blow out” while you are
driving, especially if you maintain your tires
properly. If air goes out of a tire, it is much more
likely to leak out slowly. See
Tires on page 413 for
additional information.
Your vehicle, when new, had run-flat tires. This
type of tire can operate effectively with no air
pressure, so you will not need to stop on the side
of the road to change a flat tire. You can just
keep on driving. The shorter the distance you drive
and the slower the speed, the greater the
chance that the run-flat tire will not have to be
replaced. Run-flat tires perform so well without any
air that a Tire Pressure Monitor (TPM) is used
to alert you if a tire has lost pressure. See
Run-Flat
Tires on page 420 and Tire Pressure Monitor
System on page 423 .

CAUTION:
When the TIRE FLAT MAX SPD 55,
REDUCED HNDLG message is displayed
on the Driver Information Center, your
vehicle’s handling capabilities will be
reduced during severe maneuvers. If you
drive too fast, you could lose control of
your vehicle. You or others could be
injured. Don’t drive over 55 mph (90 km/h)
when the TIRE FLAT MAX SPD 55,
REDUCED HNDLG message is displayed.
Drive cautiously and check your tire
pressures as soon as you can.
If the TPM system detects a tire pressure below
5 psi (34 kPa), the TIRE FLAT MAX SPD 55,
REDUCED HNDLG warning message is displayed
on the Driver Information Center (DIC). See
DIC Controls and Displays on page 204 and DIC
Warnings and Messages on page 206 for
information and details about the DIC operation
and displays.
