Many new cars no longer carry a spare — they ship with a mobile-inflator kit instead, or with run-flats. Check now, in your driveway, with the manual handy. Knowing what you have before a 2 AM curbside emergency saves an hour.
If you have a spare, locate the jack and tire iron. Common spots: under the trunk floor (most sedans), behind a panel in the rear cargo area (SUVs), or mounted under the rear bumper (most pickups and a few SUVs).
If your car has the inflator kit, it works for small punctures. For sidewall damage or anything bigger than a finger's width, the kit won't seal it — call us at $249 / hour, 1-hour minimum, $224 first hour online.
