Do not attempt to repair punctures larger than 1⁄4 inch (6.4 mm) or damage to the tire's sidewall. The tire may not completely seal. Note: Do not use the temporary mobility kit if a tire has become severely damaged by driving the vehicle with a tire that has insufficient air pressure. Only punctured areas located within the tire tread can be sealed with the temporary mobility kit. Loss of air pressure may adversely affect tire performance. For this reason: • Do not drive the vehicle above 50 mph (80 km/h). • Do not drive further than 120 miles (200 km). Drive only to the closest Ford Motor Company authorized dealer or tire repair shop to have your tire inspected. • Drive carefully and avoid abrupt steering maneuvers. • Periodically monitor tire inflation pressure in the affected tire; if the tire is losing pressure, have the vehicle towed. 341 2011 MKT (mkt) Owners Guide, 1st Printing USA (fus)
