Got a Nail in Your Tire? Here’s What to Do 🛠️

Finding a nail in your tire is one of those “ugh, not today” moments. But don’t panic — there’s a way to handle it safely without needing a tow truck. If your tire isn’t losing air too quickly, you can temporarily plug the hole using a tire repair kit. It’s not a permanent fix, but it’ll get you to a shop. The key word here is temporary. Driving long-term on a plugged tire that hasn’t been professionally repaired can cause major damage — or worse, an accident. So once the plug is in, make it your mission to get to a tire service technician ASAP. They’ll properly patch it from the inside or advise you if a replacement is needed. Better to spend a little time fixing it right than deal with a blowout later. Have you ever had to plug a tire on the go?
