Component
TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIRE
Manufacturer
Gulf States Toyota, Inc.
What Happened
Your vehicle's temporary spare tire is like a backup set of wheels in case the other one gets flat. But if it's not inflated to the right pressure, it won't perform as well as it should.
Risk if Unfixed
If your spare tire's not inflated correctly, it could slip or lose traction when you're driving, increasing the chance of a crash.
Free Fix
Your dealer will check the pressure in your spare tire and adjust it to the correct level, free of charge. You'll get a notification from Gulf States, and you should schedule the adjustment as soon as possible.
