Tires
Refer to Safety Precautions on page 137.
We strongly recommend that you replace, not repair, any tire that is
punctured or damaged. As discussed below, a tire that is repaired,
either temporarily or permanently, will have lower speed and
performance limits than a new or undamaged tire.
A temporary repair can sometimes be made in an emergency
situation. However, since a temporary repair may not hold, you must
drive very slowly, preferably without any cargo, and have the tire
replaced or permanently repaired as soon as possible. (For more
information on temporary repairs, see If You Have a Flat Tire,
page 258.)
A permanent repair, such as an internal plug patch, can be made if
a tire has only a small puncture in the tread area. With such a repair,
you should drive very slowly for the first 24 hours. However you may
not be able to safely carry as much weight. If you choose to have a
tire repaired, be sure the repair work is performed by a professional.
If you have a tire professionally repaired at a non-Honda facility, we
recommend that you have the work checked by your Honda dealer.
