Tire Repair
If your tire becomes damaged, it may be repaired
if it meets the following criteria:
• The tire has not been driven on when flat
.
• The damage is only on the tread section of your
tire (sidewall damage is not repairable)
.
• The puncture is no greater than a ¼ of an inch
(6 mm)
.
Consult an authorized tire dealer for tire repairs
and additional information
.
Damaged Run Flat tires, or Run Flat tires that have
experienced a loss of pressure should be replaced
immediately with another Run Flat tire of identical
size and service description (Load Index and
Speed Symbol)
.
Replace the tire pressure sensor
as well as it is not designed to be reused
.
Run Flat Tires — If Equipped
Run Flat tires allow you the capability to drive
50 miles (80 km) at 50 mph (80 km/h) after a
rapid loss of inflation pressure
.
This rapid loss of
inflation is referred to as the Run Flat mode
.
A
Run Flat mode occurs when the tire inflation
pressure is of/or below 14 psi (96 kPa)
.
Once a
Run Flat tire reaches the run flat mode it has
limited driving capabilities and needs to be re-
placed immediately
.
A Run Flat tire is not repair-
able
.
When a run flat tire is changed after driving
with underinflated tire condition, please replace
the TPM sensor as it is not designed to be reused
when driven under run flat mode (14 psi
(96 kPa)) condition
.
NOTE:
TPM Sensor must be replaced after driving the
vehicle on a flat tire condition
.
It is not recommended driving a vehicle loaded at
full capacity or to tow a trailer while a tire is in the
run flat mode
.
See the tire pressure monitoring section for more
information
.
Tire Spinning
When stuck in mud, sand, snow, or ice conditions,
do not spin your vehicle's wheels above 30 mph
(48 km/h) or for longer than 30 seconds continu-
ously without stopping
.
Refer to “Freeing A Stuck Vehicle” in “In Case Of
Emergency” for further information
.
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous
.
Forces
generated by excessive wheel speeds may
cause tire damage or failure
.
A tire could
explode and injure someone
.
Do not spin your
vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h)
for more than 30 seconds continuously when
you are stuck, and do not let anyone near a
spinning wheel, no matter what the speed
.
Tread Wear Indicators
Tread wear indicators are in the original equip-
ment tires to help you in determining when your
tires should be replaced
.
