From our Lynnwood location we typically reach Mountlake Terrace within 15 to 20 minutes. A spare installation on site takes under 15 minutes for a standard vehicle once we arrive. If the spare is not viable and transport is needed, that is handled in the same call.
If your spare is flat, unusable, or not safe for the road conditions, we load the vehicle and transport it to a tire shop of your choice. A flat tire call that cannot be resolved with the spare transitions to a tow -- we handle both without requiring a second call.
Yes. I-5 near the 220th Street SW and 236th Street SW exits is a regular flat tire call location for us. If you are on the shoulder, turn on your hazard lights, stay in the vehicle if safe, and give the dispatcher your direction and nearest exit. Full highway safety protocol on every I-5 flat tire call.
Yes. We install your vehicle's spare tire. We do not carry replacement tires for sale. If your spare is not viable, we transport the vehicle to a tire shop. Check your trunk before calling if you are unsure whether your vehicle has a spare.
No. Our pricing is identical at every hour, every day, every holiday. The price is confirmed before dispatch and does not change on arrival.
Construction debris from the 236th Street SW light rail development corridor is the most consistent cause -- nails, screws, and metal fasteners from the active construction zone migrate to travel lanes on 236th Street SW and connecting surface streets. I-5 debris strikes causing sudden pressure loss near the Mountlake Terrace exits are the second most common cause.
Yes. Flat tire service in tight apartment lots requires the technician to work in the available space around the vehicle. Where the space is sufficient for the standard spare installation procedure, we complete it at your location. If the space is too tight for safe jack placement, we discuss the options with you before beginning.
