My husband used to have an Audi TT. There wasn't enough room in the car for a spare tire, not even a donut. So the manufacturer would put in a patch kit and a can of fix-a-flat. I kid you not.

Some cars are no longer even coming with a spare. Fix a flat type of inflator in a can or run flat tires.

Im driving the wife's 07 Honda Odessy on 95 into work this morning. I'm thinking "mmmph, seems a little loud this morning.." Van still driving ok. straight even.. credit to Honda on that. Woman pulls up on the side of me and beeps her horn.. I look over... she points to my back tire.

I take the next exit and pull into a Sunoco. nice screw inthe tire, and it's almost flat. I didn't feel it.. at all.. strange.... But anyway, I try to put air in it to get to work. The tire starts to fill a litle and then completly blows up in my face. I think I was deaf for 30 seconds. Ok, look for the spare. where is the freakin thing?? I look all over for it.No tire... none NONE!!!

Ok now what do I do.. There is a service station about 1/4-1/2 mile up the road. I could call triple A but they took like 4 hours last time I called them eff that. I drove it to the service station. The wife just took this in for service and she was told the tires are fine.. well, they are not fine, the front 2 are very bald very blad

well, this turned into almost a 700 dollar morning

plain

Wataf? I had a spare in my MR2 and that's much smaller than a TT. Sounds like marketing decided a spare was less important than trunk space to sell cars.

Actually it wasn't so much the trunk space as it was engine size combined with a tiny back-seat. Seriously, it had a back seat. If you were over 5 feet tall the manual said you weren't supposed to sit back there. But that pretty much ate up any trunk space there was. There literally was no room for a spare tire, lol.

The best part is I drove that TT down from Utah to Texas for my father-in-law's wedding in 2004. Husband was out of the country so it was me and the 2 little ones (ages 5 and 2) and the golden retriever, plus our baggage and my sewing machine and serger. (I was making their dresses for the wedding and didn't have time to finish them before we left.) I put the 5 year old in the front seat (airbags turned off), the 2 year old in the left-side back seat, folded down the right-back seat and that was where the golden went. The sewing machines were on the floor behind the driver's seat (they fitted perfectly) and what little baggage we had either was on the floor in front of the passenger front-seat or packed very tightly in the tiny space behind the left-side back seat.

It was actually quite a comfortable drive, even with all that. And it was fun watching people's jaws drop when we arrived and started unloading. I guess it helps that I am a VERY light traveler, for the most part.

Not sure but I am pretty sure you did not have a spare prior to the flat. I could be wrong but usually thats how it would work.

so let me get this straight. you have aaa but didn't call them because one time it took forever. so instead of walking a relatively short distance, you decided to go ahead and break the car more. and you're complaining about the cost?

Ok, I'll bite

walk a short distance and do what? complain to the service station? ask them for a tow? what? I could of taken the tire off and carried it to them, but then would have to wait for them to order it, mount it, and then roll it back? I drove very slow in the break down lane and didn't do any more damage at all..

I tested it at 90 on the way home and drove smooth as a top. very smooth even,.. it's nice what 4 brand new tires will do.. yes it was more than I wanted to pay, but I was in a spot, and did what I had to do..

Don't really get your point

It was wait for 4 hours for AAA to get there, and tow the van a 1/4 mile, or just drive it myself and save 3.50 hours of the day

I made the right move cool

Everytime I've had a flat has always been a blow out in busy traffic plain

But keeping a can of flat tire sealer is always pretty useful
