Breakdown Survival: Essential Tips on How to change a Flat Tire

Follow these steps to ensure the safety of your family and your vehicle

01
Find a Safe Spot
  • Action: As soon as you notice an issue, turn on your hazard lights and move your vehicle to the shoulder or a safe area away from traffic.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā 
  • Tips: NEVER stop in the midst of a curve. Slowly progress 5mph until you are in a SAFE area. You want to change your tire in an area where you are highly visible to oncoming traffic.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā 
02
Apply Parking Brake
  • Action: Engage the emergency parking brake. There are two main types, which are:Ā  Levar Parking Brake and Electronic Parking Brake.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 
  • Tips: Depending on which tire is flat, place a CHOCK behind one of the other tires to prevent the car from rolling. If you’re having trouble finding these parking brakes, check your vehiclesā€™ car manual.
03
Gather Tools & Spare
  • Action: Grab your spare tire, jack, and lug wrench. These items are usually located in the trunk or cargo area beneath the felt floor panel of the vehicle.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 
  • Tips:Ā  Retrieving a spare tire can often prove to be quite a challenge on some vehicles. If you have trouble check your vehiclesā€™ car manual located usually in the glove box.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 
04
Loosen The Lug-Nuts
  • Action: Remove wheel cover (hubcap). Lightly pry around edges until it pops off. Use the lug wrench to turn each lug nut counterclockwise *DO NOT remove lug nuts yet* Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā 
  • Tips: When changing a tire; if a lug nut is stuck, you can try using a breaker bar, impact wrench, lug nut extractor set, torque wrench, dead blow hammer, or impact hammer.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā

  • Stay Calm: Focus on keeping control of your vehicle and don’t panic.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā

Remove Lugs & Flat Tire

  • Stay Calm: Breathe and stay inside your vehicle if it feels unsafe outside, especially on busy roads.Ā 
07
Mount The Spare Tire
  • Action:Ā  Align the spare tire with the lug stems and slide it onto the wheelbase. Tighten by hand, then lower the jack and tighten the lug nuts fully with the lug wrench.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 
  • Stay Calm:Ā  When changing a tire, you should tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern to apply equal torque to all the wheel studs. Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 
08
Check The Spare Tire
  • Action: Ensure the spare tire and lug nuts are properly secured and check the tire pressure in your spare tire to ensure it has the correct pounds per square inch (PSI).Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā 
  • Stay Calm: Staying visible ensures that other drivers see you and that help will find you easily.Ā Ā
