Tire Repair Kit*

If a tire has a small puncture, you can use the tire repair kit to temporarily repair it. The puncture must be smaller than 3/16-inch (4 mm) and not in the tire sidewall. Go to a dealer to have the full-size tire permanently repaired or replaced.

Before Repairing the Tire

  1. Park the vehicle on firm, level, and non-slippery surface.

  2. Make sure the vehicle is in Park (P) and apply the parking brake.

  3. Turn on the hazard warning lights and turn the vehicle off.

Getting Ready to Repair the Tire

  1. Open the trunk. Pull up the strap on the trunk floor lid and open the lid.

    If equipped, turn the knob on the tool case lid counterclockwise and remove the cover.

  2. Remove the kit.

  3. Place the kit face up on flat ground near the punctured tire and away from traffic. Do not place the kit on its side.

  4. Follow the instructions in the kit to repair the tire.

NOTICE

Do not use a puncture-repairing agent other than the one provided in the kit that came with your vehicle. If a different agent is used, you may permanently damage the tire pressure sensor.
