Knowing the difference between a proper tire repair and an improper repair could be critical to vehicle safety. A tire industry study showed that nearly 88 percent of tire repairs are performed improperly. An improper tire repair could pose a safety hazard to you and your family and could also affect a tire manufacturer's warranty. The most important thing is how to know when a tire repair should be repaired and when it should be replaced. For more information about tire repair click on the video below.

Tire aging “The structural integrity of a tire can degrade over an extended period of time. When that occurs, tires are more prone to failure. The degradation of the tire occurs over time, mostly as a result of chemical reaction within the rubber components. That aging process can be accelerated by heat and sunlight. Tire life ultimately depends on the tire’s service conditions and environment in which they operate. Some vehicle manufacturers (Ford, Mercedes and Chrysler) recommend that tires be replaced every six years regardless of use. In addition a number of tire manufacturers cite ten years as the maximum service life for tires… Remember it is always wise to err on the side of caution if you suspect that your vehicle has tires that are over six years of age.” Big Brand Tire Company uses the above criteria in conjunction with a visual inspection to determine if a tire is repairable and should continue to be in service. |
