What to Do When a Car Tire Goes Flat?
1 Answers
When a car tire goes flat, you should first pull over to the side of the road and identify the cause of the flat tire. Check for any air leaks such as punctures from nails, cuts, aging or cracked rubber on the valve stem, etc. If only one tire is flat, you can choose to replace it with a spare tire. If you don't have a spare tire, you can call for roadside assistance to tow the car or request mobile tire repair services. Methods for maintaining car tires: 1. Regularly check tire pressure; 2. Remove debris from tire treads; 3. Inspect the wear condition of the tires and replace them in time based on the wear; 4. Perform tire rotation. If the vehicle shows signs of pulling to one side or abnormal steering, promptly rotate the tires. Tire rotation ensures even force distribution across all four tires, preventing excessive wear.
