Emergency Tyre Repair

EMERGENCY TYRE REPAIR

Emergency tire repair refers to the immediate, on-the-spot fixing of a damaged tire to make it roadworthy again. It is a temporary solution to address issues like punctures or minor tire damage that can occur while driving. Here’s how emergency tire repair typically works:

  • 1. Identify the Problem: If you experience a flat tire or a sudden loss of air pressure, pull over to a safe location and assess the tire. Identify the location and cause of the damage, which is often due to a nail or sharp object puncturing the tire.
  • 2. Turn on Hazard Lights: For safety, turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers that you are experiencing an issue and parked on the side of the road.
  • 3. Response Time: TukTuk dispatches a technician to your location as quickly as possible. We aim for a fast response time to minimise your downtime.
  • 4. Tire Assessment: Our technician will assess the damaged tire to determine whether it can be repaired or if it needs to be replaced. In the case of severe damage or a tire that can’t be safely repaired, we’ll replace it with a spare or a new tire from our inventory.
  • 5. Tire Fitting: Our technician will fit and balance the new tire, ensuring that it’s properly installed on your home car, SUV or vehicle.
  • 6. Drive Cautiously: Emergency tire repairs are often considered temporary solutions. TukTuk advices drive cautiously and avoid high speeds. Our technician will advise to head to our tire shop or service centre for a more permanent repair or tire replacement if they detect the repair is not good enough to solve your tyre problem properly.
  • 7. Monitoring: It’s important to monitor the repaired tire for the next few days to ensure that the repair is holding up and there are no further issues.

Please note that emergency tire repair is a short-term solution and may not be suitable for all types of tire damage. If the tire is severely damaged, if the sidewall is affected, or if the repair kit doesn’t resolve the issue, it’s recommended to replace the tire or seek professional assistance from a tire service or mechanic.
