What causes a tire to suddenly lose air after a bump?
1 Answers
Tire suddenly losing air after a bump is due to weak tire sidewalls, poor quality, or damaged tire sidewalls. Here are some tire maintenance precautions: 1. Regularly check tire pressure: Tire pressure is an important factor affecting tire lifespan. It should not be too high or too low. Inflate according to the vehicle's indicated tire pressure. In summer, try to keep the tire pressure slightly lower; in cold winter, ensure the tire pressure is slightly higher than in summer due to thermal expansion and contraction. 2. Check wear condition: Some vehicles may experience uneven tire wear. Frequently inspect the inner side of tires for abnormal wear, mainly observing whether the tread depth on both sides is consistent. 3. Perform wheel alignment regularly: When the vehicle pulls to one side or exhibits other abnormal steering behaviors, perform wheel alignment promptly to prevent other tire abnormalities. Wheel alignment ensures even force distribution across all four tires, avoiding excessive wear.
