If a car tire leaks while driving, you need to turn on the hazard lights, pull over, and replace the spare tire. After replacing the spare tire, control the speed and do not exceed 80km per hour. Find a tire shop to repair the tire before putting it back on, as the spare tire cannot be used for a long time. The following are the steps for replacing a tire: 1. After parking and turning off the engine, use the handbrake; 2. Place heavy objects in front of and behind the wheels to prevent sliding, and place a triangular warning sign behind the car; 3. Use a wrench to loosen the screws of the tire to be replaced in a diagonal manner; 4. Place the jack on the side where the tire needs to be replaced and lift the vehicle to a certain height; 5. Remove the screws and take off the tire; 6. Replace with a spare tire or new tire, and tighten the screws in a diagonal manner; 7. Release the jack to lower the vehicle and ensure that the screws and nuts are tightened.
