Guaranteed Truck & Auto Repair stays up to date on all industry guidelines to ensure safe repairs to your vehicle. If your tire has a puncture less than a ¼ inch wide that hasn't damaged any internal components, we can repair your tire and put it back on your vehicle. Plugs and patches are usually the most efficient way to repair a puncture that's causing air to leak from your tire.
The process of repairing a tire is quite simple but requires specialized equipment to ensure your safety. First, we will demount your tire from the rim, inspect the inner liner, and remove the foreign object. Once we are confident that we have cleared your tire's puncture, we will plug the hole and place a patch on the tire's inner liner to ensure you won't experience any air leakage. A plug and patch repair system can last 7-10 years if done correctly. You should never have more than one patch on a tire, though. Multiple patches on one tire can potentially cause blowouts while your driving at higher speeds.
At Guaranteed Truck & Auto Repair, we recommend replacing your tires every six years. The rubber on an old tire will become dry and cause cracking that will lead to dangerous blowouts. If you're unsure of your tires' quality, bring it into Guaranteed Truck & Auto Repair today and let us inspect for issues you may be missing.
The Tire Industry Association and most vehicle manufacturers recommend that you replace all four tires simultaneously. When you replace them one at a time, the more worn tire will spin faster than the new tire because of diameter differences. This difference in size can cause unnecessary wear on your drivetrain and confuse your traction control system, making your vehicle think it is constantly losing traction.
Tire Rotation is essential to getting the most life out of your tires. When you rotate your tires, you're able to even out the wear from daily driving. At Guaranteed Truck & Auto Repair, we recommend getting a tire rotation every 3000 – 5000 miles or at your regular oil changes. Uneven wear on your tires can cause a rough and unstable driving surface and make it more likely for you to experience hydroplaning, poor traction, and an increased risk of blowouts. Please don't put it off any longer. Your safety is our top priority. Visit our certified professionals at Guaranteed Truck & Auto Repair for your next tire rotation.
