CHANGING THE TIRES
If you get a flat tire while driving, do not apply the brake heavily.
Instead, gradually decrease your speed. Hold the steering wheel firmly
and slowly move to a safe place on the side of the road.
The use of tire sealants may damage your tires. The use of tire
sealants may also damage your tire pressure monitoring system
(if equipped).
Your vehicle may be equipped with a conventional spare tire that is
different in one or more of the following: type, brand, size, speed rating
and tread design. If this is the case, this dissimilar spare tire is still rated
for your vehicle loads (GAWR and GVWR). Your vehicle is equipped with
a spare wheel that does not match the road wheels and is not equipped
with a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS) sensor.
Spare tire information
Note:If your vehicle is equipped with the tire pressure monitoring
system (TPMS), the system indicator light will illuminate when the spare
is in use. To restore the full functionality of the monitoring system, all
road wheels equipped with tire pressure monitoring sensors must be
mounted on the vehicle
If your vehicle is equipped with TPMS, have a flat tire serviced by a
dealer or qualified technician in order to prevent damage to the TPMS
sensor. Replace the spare tire with a road tire as soon as possible.
Location of the spare tire and tools
The spare tire and tools for your vehicle are stowed in the following
locations:
Item Location
Spare tire Under the vehicle, just forward of
the rear bumper
Jack tools and jacking instructions Under the access panel located in
the floor compartment behind the
rear seat
Removing the jack and tools
1. Open the liftgate, then locate the access panel on the floor behind the
3rd row seat. Unlatch and remove the panel.
2. Remove the jack and tools assembly tray from the compartment by
turning the wing-nut counterclockwise to relieve tension against the jack
assembly tray.

3. Unsnap the wheel lug nut wrench, jack extension and handle from the
plastic tray. Remove the jack and instruction sheet from the tray
assembly.
Removing the spare tire
1. Fold the rear seat down. Refer to
Rear seatsin theSeating and
safety restraintschapter.
2. Remove the jack handle and
winch extension from the tray and
assemble them.
3. Open the spare tire winch access
plug in the bottom of the
compartment located behind the 3rd
row seat, very close to the jack and
tools tray.
4. Insert the winch extension tool
assembly through the access hole in
the floor and engage the winch.
5. To remove the spare tire, turn the handle counterclockwise until the
tire is lowered to the ground and the cable is slightly slack.
6. Slide the retainer through the center of the spare tire wheel.
Tire change procedure
To help prevent the vehicle from moving when you change a tire,
be sure the parking brake is set, then block (in both directions)
the wheel that is diagonally opposite (other side and end of the
vehicle) to the tire being changed.
If the vehicle slips off the jack, you or someone else could be
seriously injured.
On vehicles equipped with Air Suspension, turn OFF the Air
Suspension switch prior to jacking, hoisting or towing your
vehicle.
Refer to the instruction sheet (located in the rear floor compartment
behind the 3rd row seat with the jack tray tools assembly kit) for
detailed tire change instructions.

•Never use the front or rear differential as a jacking point.
6. Remove the lug nuts with the lug wrench.
7. Replace the flat tire with the spare tire, making sure the valve stem is
facing outward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the wheel is snug against the
hub. Do not fully tighten the lug nuts until the wheel has been lowered.
8. Lower the wheel by turning the jack handle counterclockwise.
9. Remove the jack and fully tighten
the lug nuts in the order shown and
reinstall the wheel cover.
10. Unblock the wheels.
11. Put flat tire, jack, lug wrench
and tools away. Make sure the jack
is fastened securely so it does not
rattle when you drive.
12. Turn on the air suspension
switch (if equipped).
Stowing the spare tire
1. Lay the tire on the ground, near the rear of the vehicle, with the valve
stem side facing up.
2. Slide the wheel partially under
the vehicle and install the retainer
through the wheel center. After
doing so, pull on the cable to align
the components at the end of the
cable.
3. Assemble the jack handle and
winch extension (as shown in
illustration), then insert the winch
extension through the access hole
behind the 3rd row seat and engage
the winch.
4. Turn the jack handle clockwise
until the tire is raised to its stowed
position underneath the vehicle. The
wrench will become harder to turn and the spare tire winch will ratchet
or slip when the tire is raised to maximum tightness. A clicking sound
will be heard from the winch indicating that the tire is properly stowed.

WRECKER TOWING
If you need to have your vehicle towed, contact a professional towing
service or, if you are a member of a roadside assistance program, your
roadside assistance service provider.
It is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a wheel lift or flatbed
equipment. Do not tow with a slingbelt. Ford Motor Company has not
approved a slingbelt towing procedure. Also, wrecker towing the vehicle
by the frame-mounted tow hooks is not recommended or advised.
If your vehicle is equipped with air suspension, the air suspension
control and the ignition must be turned off before being towed.
Refer toAir suspensionin theDrivingchapter.
On 4x2 vehicles, it is acceptable to tow the vehicle with the front wheels
on the ground (without dollies) and the rear wheels off the ground.
On 4x4 vehicles, it is recommended that your vehicle be towed with a
wheel lift and dollies or flatbed equipment with all the wheels off the
ground.
