Recently, DH had a fine new set of tires put on my car. Monday morning, one
was quite flat. He took the tire back to the tire dealer (who is,
incidentally a family friend). It turns out that the tire mfr had
unknowingly received tire valves that were made in Ballahongawalla. They
'look' okay but are miserably defective.
So. If you have a new set of tires, you might ought to learn how to
check their pressure. Carrying your phone so you can call for help would
also be a good idea. I know 'how' to change a tire but there ain't no way I
could lift the spare out of the trunk.

That happened to the new tires that came on the old '98 Winstar I had
Polly. Ford had them all the valves swapped out but the tires never
were right. It wasn't long til dh just replaced them all. AAA is my
friend. Hope you are safe and good to go now.
