Tire Service service guide
Tire service can address condition, pressure, wear, and other tire concerns. Tire condition and the vehicle's recommended pressures should be checked using the vehicle information and tire inspection.
How the issue is assessed
A tire inspection checks tread, sidewalls, inflation, wear pattern, and the location and extent of any damage. Findings determine whether pressure correction, a suitable puncture repair, wheel or alignment evaluation, or tire replacement should be considered under applicable safety guidance.
Signs worth mentioning
- Tread appears uneven or worn, or a tire has visible damage.
- A tire repeatedly loses pressure or the tire-pressure warning appears.
- The vehicle vibrates or handling changes, especially after a tire impact or pressure loss.
What an assessment may include
- Inspect tread, sidewalls, and inflation pressure, and note the pattern of tire wear.
- Check the vehicle placard or manual for the recommended cold tire pressure.
- Consider whether a puncture, wheel issue, or alignment concern needs separate evaluation.
- Describe a sign: Tread appears uneven or worn, or a tire has visible damage.
- Assess the system: Inspect tread, sidewalls, and inflation pressure, and note the pattern of tire wear.
- Confirm a finding: A puncture is found in a repairable area and the tire's internal and external condition is suitable for repair.
- Consider possible work: Repair the puncture using an approved method and verify pressure and sealing.
| Finding after assessment | Possible work | Decision note |
|---|---|---|
| A puncture is found in a repairable area and the tire's internal and external condition is suitable for repair. | Repair the puncture using an approved method and verify pressure and sealing. | Repair eligibility depends on puncture location, size, tire construction, and applicable safety standards; not every puncture is repairable. |
| Inspection finds sidewall damage, structural damage, or tread wear that makes the tire unsuitable for continued service. | Replace the affected tire with a tire appropriate for the vehicle and assess related tires as needed. | Replacement considerations depend on vehicle requirements and the condition of the other tires. |
| A tire repeatedly loses pressure and inspection locates a leaking valve or bead-seat area. | Repair or replace the confirmed valve or address the wheel-to-tire sealing surface, then recheck for leaks. | Pressure loss can have multiple sources; confirm the leak location before selecting service. |
How to decide
- Decide whether repair or replacement is suitable based on tire location, construction, damage, and applicable safety guidance.
- Correct pressure to the vehicle specification and investigate recurring pressure loss rather than repeatedly topping up without a check.
Care between visits
- Check cold tire pressures against the vehicle placard or manual and respond to recurring pressure loss.
- Inspect tire tread and sidewalls periodically, and have uneven wear or impact damage evaluated.
