Tire Problems=Safety Hazards

Tires play a huge role in your vehicle’s performance and safety. They can help you navigate different types of road conditions and even help with fuel efficiency. But like most parts on a car, tires can experience various problems over time that can lead to safety hazards if not addressed promptly. Common issues that affect your tires are uneven tread wear, under or over-inflation, punctures, dry rot, and cracks. All of these issues, and more, impact not only the way your vehicle operates on the road, but it also impacts the safety of you and those around you. Not only that, but each one of these problems can cause costly repairs, or even an accident, if not taken care of properly when necessary. Maintaining your vehicle’s tires in good condition is essential for your safety on the road.

Solutions To Tire Problems

There are two solutions to any tire problem: repair or replacement. For uneven tread, you can do a check yourself. Insert a penny into the tread groove upside down. If you can see the top of Abe Lincoln’s head, your tread is too shallow. When this happens, it’s time to replace your tire. If your problem is uneven wear, a tire rotation can fix the problem. It is a matter of checking your tire pressure for over or under-inflated tires. Either solution’s fix is to release air or add air to your tires. Cracks and tears in your tires are an immediate safety hazard. Your tire needs a replacement as soon as possible to prevent an accident. However, a puncture in your tire could be a different story. Depending on the size and severity of the puncture, a repair is possible. An experienced technician will tell you if you need to replace the tire. If your tire is experiencing dry rot, repair or replacement is the correct fix. It all depends on the severity of the rot. It’s best to leave this determination to a professional.
