new 2018 nissan rogue sport for sale des moines kirkland washingtonHi Robert,

I recently purchased a new 2018 Nissan Rogue Sport and I’m delighted with it. Soon, I’ll be driving across the country to see my family for the holidays: I’m slightly worried about getting a flat as it’s such a long journey. Could you guide me through changing a tire?

Thanks,

Bell

Hi, Bell!

Don’t worry about it, changing the tire on your 2018 Nissan Rogue Sport really isn’t a big deal. If you do get a flat, pull over to a safe location, turn your hazards on, and apply the parking brake. Then use wheel wedges if you have them.

After this, you can loosen the lug nuts with a wrench by twisting counterclockwise, but don’t take them off completely. Then place a jack under the car’s frame next to where your flat is. After you have positioned it correctly, raise the vehicle up. 

Now you can fully unscrew the nuts and take off the wheel. Next, you can mount your spare tire on the lug bolts.

Finally, tighten the nuts back on by twisting clockwise. After this, lower your vehicle to the ground.

Before you set off, make sure all the lug nuts are tight and everything is secure.

Thanks for the question, Bell! Contact Kirkland Nissan, Washington again if you ever have any other queries.
