Using the tire mobility kit
Using the tire mobility kit
If the tire is flat, park your vehicle in a safe place and repair the flat tire with the tire mobility kit, which is located under the trunk floor. If the sidewall of the tire is damaged or the bottom of the tire is seriously damaged, however, contact the nearest authorized Kia dealer or service partner.
