a Tire Goes Flat

It’s unusual for

tire to “blow out” while you’re driving, especially if you

maintain your tires properly. If air goes out

a tire, it’s much more likely to

leak out slowly. But

you should ever have a “blowout,” here are a few tips

about what to expect and what

do:

If a front tire fails, the flat tire will create 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, then gently brake to a

stop well out of the traffic lane.

rear blowout, particularly on a curve, acts much like a skid and may

require the same correction you’d use in a skid. In any rear blowout, remove

your foot from

the

accelerator pedal. Get the vehicle under control by

steering the way you want the vehicle to go. It may be very bumpy and

noisy, but you can still steer. Gently brake to a stop, well

off

the road if

possible.

If a tire goes flat,

the

next part shows how to use your jacking equipment to

change

flat tire safely.

Changing a Flat Tire

a tire goes flat, avoid further tire and wheel damage by driving slowly to a

level place.

Turn

on your hazard warning flashers.
