Tire Repair
Refer to
Safety Precautions
on page 79.
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 tire that is repaired, either temporarily or permanently, will have lower
speed and performance limits than a new or u
ndamaged 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 183.)
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
.
