Wheels and Tires

GENERAL INFORMATION A decal with tire pressure data is located in the driver’s door opening. Check and set the tire pressure at the ambient temperature in which you are intending to drive your vehicle and when the tires are cold. Note: Check your tire pressures regularly to optimize fuel economy. Note: Use only approved wheel and tire sizes. Using other sizes could damage your vehicle and will make the National Type Approval invalid. Note: If you change the diameter of the tires from that fitted at the factory, the speedometer may not display the correct speed. Take your vehicle to an authorized dealer to have the engine management system reprogrammed. TIRESEALANTANDINFLATOR KIT (If Equipped) Note: The temporary mobility kit canister contains enough sealant compound for one tire repair only. See your authorized Ford dealer for additional replacement sealant canisters. The kit is located under the load floor of the trunk. The kit consists of an air compressor to inflate the tire and a sealing compound in a canister that will effectively seal most punctures caused by nails or similar objects. This kit will provide a temporary tire repair allowing you to drive your vehicle up to 120 mi (200 km) at a maximum speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) to reach a tire service location.
