No matter how safe you’re driving or how good the roads are, every driver ends up with a flat tire eventually. The key is to be prepared so you’re not totally derailed by a flat tire on your Jeep® Wrangler. So, today’s entry into our Jeep service 101 series is about how to deal with a flat tire!

Flat Tire Tips

Whether it’s a blowout, a leak, or a puncture, we’ve got some tips for how to deal with a flat tire on your Jeep SUV.

• Prepare ahead of time. A flat tire will be much, much easier to deal with if have what you need on hand. That means making sure you have a spare tire and a working jack, and keeping an eye on the condition of your tires.

• Educate yourself. Again, preparation can go a long way – take the time now to learn how to change a tire if you want to tackle it yourself, or call CMA's Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM of Lynchburg to learn more about 24-hour roadside assistance.

• Get the spare on the rim. Whether you can do the tire change yourself or take advantage of roadside assistance, getting the spare on will save you the expense and cost of a tow.

• Visit our Jeep service center as soon as possible. A spare tire isn’t meant for long distances or high speeds, so the sooner you can get to our service center for a repair or replacement, the better.

• Get a new tire if you need it, replace or repair your spare, buy a jack if you don’t have one – don’t wait until your next flat tire to restock your supplies!
