If the puncture is situated outside of this area, even in the case of a slow puncture, it is deemed too close to the sidewall to guarantee a safe and lasting minor repair. To remain compliant, we are only able to carry out tyre repairs to the central ¾ of the tyre (known as the minor repair area). This standard defines the requirements for safe minor tyre repair and its proximity to the sidewall. Our car puncture repair policy reflects that of the British standard (BSAU159). Read on to discover the following factors that determine whether you can or can’t repair your punctured tyre. At Kwik Fit, we will always try to repair a punctured tyre but there are instances when this just isn’t possible… When a puncture occurs, it’s understandable that you’d want to try and repair that tyre rather than replace it, even more so if you’ve not long purchased the offending tyre.
Nobody wants to pick up a puncture, especially when a flat tyre is almost guaranteed to happen at the most inconvenient time.
