And this is why I hate cars without a spare. Went to garage to check the air in the tires to find this one totally flat sitting on the rim thanks to this screw that is likely in the area they will not repair. If I pump the air up to 42 it hisses and settles down around 35, but seems to be a slow leak. Since it is Sunday I am rather "screwed" (pun intended) sine I won't risk driving anywhere. I picked up a can of Slime tire sealant and a plug kit, but am going to wait before attempting either. I have been driving for over 35 years an never owned a car without a spare until now, and this has me thinking if this happened somewhere isolated what would happen. I do think I am going to keep the plug kit in the car either way. Not a fan of plugs, but in a pinch they can be handy.
Fortunately I purchased tire/road hazard warrant from Discount Tire 2 weeks ago. Can't wait to see how hard it is to he the Pirelli Scorpion Zero. Will also call the dealer in AM as a backup plan.
