Does My Kia Come With a Spare Tire?

In the past, the answer to this would have been an overwhelming yes. However, as Kia has shifted its focus over the years toward fuel economy and cargo space, they’ve begun to move away from Kia spare tires standard on vehicles. As a result, the bulky Kia spare tire has been replaced by the compact Kia Tire Mobility Kit (TMK) — a tire repair kit that contains all the tools you need if anything unexpected occurs on your Leominster commute in the event of your tire going flat. Follow this guide from Ron Bouchard Kia in Lancaster to learn more about the tire repair kit and more.

What is the Kia Tire Mobility Kit?

If you need a solution for your Kia flat tire, the Kia Tire Mobility Kit contains all the pieces that you need to repair it. This will help you drive safely to our service department for your replacement tire. This is a fast and effective way to fix your Kia flat tire on Fitchburg roads.

What is in the Kia Tire Repair Kit?

Your tire repair kit includes:

• Tire sealant 
• A filling hose
• A compressor 
• A tire gauge
• Necessary cables and hoses 

How Do I Use the Kia Tire Mobility Kit?

The Kia Tire Mobility Kit will help you get back on the road safely, but it will not fix the underlying issues with your tire. This will require the expertise of certified Kia service technicians. If you find yourself with a Kia flat tire, here are the steps to take:

1. Look under the floorboards of your trunk for the tire repair kit.
2. Attach the inflator hose to the tire valve stem securely.
3. Turn on the unit to inject sealant into the tire.
4. Inflate the tire with the compressor.
5. Once you are able to drive, head to the nearest Kia dealership for a new tire.
