Donut spares

Any of you running the donut spares not just in the TL but any of your other cars ... go check the tire pressure . Its supposed to be 60 PSI.

In the last couple weeks I have checked close to 10 cars and every one was either low or at zero.

Cars were anywhere from 3 to 12 years old.

Might be a crappy suprise to have a flat and the donut doesn't have enough air to do what you need it to.

Also don't assume when you had it serviced they check it ... its often forgotten.

Good advice as I am delinquent in checking the donuts in our cars. The TL is a pain as I have the net knobs screwed through the liner, and the spare is installed vlave down, but checked it about 2 weeks ago and it had 18 lbs.
