NHTSA complaint #10002770, filed 2003-01“I bought a Hyundai Accent 2001 new at car pros in lacey (now sold). On the incident date I had a flat tire from a screw in tire at church. A friend changed the tire for me and put on the spare tire(little one). I noticed it looked very low. They told me not to drive it to work since I work a half-hour away and drive on the freeway (I-5). I went to les schwab and had them fix the flat tire & asked if they would look at the spare also. They told me the spare already had a plug from a hole in it and that they replaced that plug and filled the tire up properly. …”
