Vehicle Care 10-67

Do not use chains on the tires of

the front axle. Tighten them as

tightly as possible with the

ends securely fastened. Drive

slowly and follow the chain

manufacturer's instructions.

If you can hear the chains

contacting your vehicle, stop

and retighten them. If the contact

continues, slow down until it

stops. Driving too fast or

spinning the wheels with chains

on will damage your vehicle.

If a Tire Goes Flat

It is unusual for a tire to blowout

while driving, especially if the tires

are maintained properly. If air goes

out of a tire, it is much more likely to

leak out slowly. But if there ever is a

blowout, here are a few tips about

what to expect and what to do:

If a front tire fails, the flat tire

creates a drag that pulls the vehicle

toward that side. Take your foot off

the accelerator pedal and grip the

steering wheel firmly. Steer to

maintain lane position, and then

gently brake to a stop, well off the

road, if possible.

A rear blowout, particularly on a

curve, acts much like a skid and

may require the same correction as

used in a skid. Stop pressing the

accelerator pedal and steer to

straighten the vehicle. It may be

very bumpy and noisy. Gently

brake to a stop, well off the road,

if possible.

WARNING

Driving on a flat tire will cause

permanent damage to the tire.

Re-inflating a tire after it has

been driven on while severely

underinflated or flat may cause a

blowout and a serious crash.

Never attempt to re-inflate a tire

that has been driven on while

severely underinflated or flat.

Have your dealer or an authorized

tire service center repair or

replace the flat tire as soon as

possible.

WARNING

Lifting a vehicle and getting

under it to do maintenance or

repairs is dangerous without the

appropriate safety equipment and

training. If a jack is provided with

the vehicle, it is designed only for

changing a flat tire. If it is used for

anything else, you or others could

be badly injured or killed if the

vehicle slips off the jack. If a jack

is provided with the vehicle, only

use it for changing a flat tire.

If a tire goes flat, avoid further tire

and wheel damage by driving slowly

to a level place, well off the road,
