Tire Repair
If your tire becomes damaged, it may be re-
paired if it meets the following criteria:
• The tire has not been driven on when flat,
• The damage is only on the tread section of
your tire (sidewall damage is not repairable)
and
• The puncture is no greater than ¼" (6 mm)
Consult an authorized tire dealer for tire repairs
and additional information.
Damaged Run Flat tires, or Run Flat tires that
have experienced a loss of pressure should be
replaced immediately with another Run Flat tire
of identical size and service description (Load

all season tires only in sets of four; failure to do
so may adversely affect the safety and handling
of your vehicle.
Summer Or Three Season Tires – If
Equipped
Summer tires provide traction in both wet and
dry conditions, and are not intended to be
driven in snow or on ice. Summer tires will not
contain the all season designation or mountain/
snowflake symbol on the tire sidewall. Use
summer tires only in sets of four; failure to do so
may adversely affect the safety and handling of
your vehicle.
Snow Tires
Some areas of the country require the use of
snow tires during the winter. Snow tires can be
identified by a mountain/snowflake symbol on
the tire sidewall.
If you need snow tires, select tires equivalent in
size and type to the original equipment tires.
Use snow tires only in sets of four; failure to do
so may adversely affect the safety and handling
of your vehicle.
