According to recent studies, 5 percent of all motor vehicle fatalities are clearly caused by automobile maintenance neglect. This looks like a bad day for our Covington drivers but it isn't just a tire, they also experienced issues with the rim and then there was a problem with where and HOW they stopped the vehicle. Nobody wants an accident so the easy way is to simply take a look at your tires and to have your tires rotated about every 5,000 miles. Check tire pressures once a month; let the tires cool down first. Don't forget your spare and be sure your jack is in good condition.
