WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES

TIRE SERVICE KIT

Your vehicle may be equipped with a Tire Service Kit.
Small punctures up to 1/4" (6 mm) in the tire tread can be sealed with the Tire
Service Kit. Foreign objects (e.g., screws or nails) should not be removed from the
tire. The Tire Service Kit can be used in outside temperatures down to approximately
-4°F (-20°C).
This kit will provide a temporary tire seal, allowing you to drive your vehicle up to
100 miles (160 km) with a maximum speed of 55 mph (90 km/h).

• The Tire Service Kit is located in the cargo compartment behind the rear seat
underneath the load floor.
