FLAT TIRE

• Signs of a Flat Tire

  • Vehicle suddenly pulling left or right when driving depending on which side the flat occurred

  • A hissing sound caused by the air escaping through the penetrated part of the tire

  • Low tire pressure light turned on or vehicle’s systems notification otherwise

  • Loud popping noise from the tire blowing accompanied thereafter by a helicopter type noise from the blown rubber tire beating the asphalt as the wheel rotates

  • Gradual decrease in tire pressure might mean you accidentally ran over a nail leaving that landscaping job

• Required tools to fix a flat tire: Lug wrench, pump or scissor vehicle jack, spare tire or "donut"

BROKEN/MALFUNCTIONING AXLE

• Signs of failing axle/axle issues

  • Abnormal vibrations and rumbling noises, particularly after a run in with an unwelcomed pothole or when you “swear there wasn’t a curb there”

  • Loud clanking sounds as you shift the vehicle into gear

  • Vehicle struggling to accelerate normally

  • Grease leaking underneath the vehicle

• Required repair tools: You will likely have to get the vehicle towed into a mechanic to get it fixed. Be cautious and aware of the drive axle’s integral part in safe vehicle transportation and get your vehicle regularly maintained and checked on at a trusted auto-shop near you.
