Use of a can of tire sealant voided road hazard warranty - Toyota Yaris Forums

The cigarette-lighter air pump is the way to go.

Years and years ago, I seemed to be prone to flats. I had changed them in the rain; once in the snow when I forgot my coat...who needed it? I was going to the warm car and then inside; I'd realized it but didn't think anything of it, until the tire went flat.

I'd even had TWO flats on one 150-mile trip, again in the snow.

So I carry the compressor. Now I have a can of Slime but I'm wary of using it except in extreme emergency. If a tire goes low, I'll pump it up, and then take aim for a garage. If I can't find one in 15 minutes or so, I'll pump the tire up again. Keep on, until I get to where I can change the tire in safety or have the tire fixed.
