I guess how often does one get a flat ( puncture)? that is why a spare wheel is no longer included in may makes and models. I have had one around 10 years ago. I had the 2009 Galant Ralliart with all the bells and whistles for its time including a spare wheel.When I go the flat I realized it by the sudden thump, thump and stopped. Got out my jack, spanner but before jacking it up I realized I just could not loosen the wheel nuts even though I tried to 'jump' on the wheel spanner.Fortunately I was and still am a CAA (Canadian AA) , phoned them and within a short period of time the Mech. was there with an portable pneumatic wrench got the nuts loose , fitted my tyre , checked the pressure loaded the flat into my trunk and waved me adieu! Cost nothing for the courtesy (worth every bit of my membership fee) sure I had to pay for the repair.Ever since then I have used them for battery charging, locked out of my car and other little quirks. Conclusion: Become a member of an Automobile Association for peace of mind for ANY event.
