Wheel/tire damage
Due to low-profile tires, please note that wheels, tires and suspension parts are more susceptible to road hazard and consequential damages.
Inspect your tires often for damage, foreign objects lodged in the tread, and tread wear.
Indications of tire damage or other vehicle defects:
▷ Unusual vibrations during driving.
▷ Unusual handling such as a strong tendency
to pull to the left or right.
In case of tire damage
If there are indications of tire damage, reduce
your speed immediately and have the
wheels and tires checked right away; otherwise,
there is the increased risk of an accident.
Drive carefully to the next service center or tire shop.
If necessary, have the vehicle towed.◀
Repair of tire damage
For safety reasons, the manufacturer of
your vehicle recommends that you do not have
damaged tires repaired; they should be replaced.
Otherwise, damage can occur as a result.◀
