The same tire keeps losing air

For tire sales or repair from Southold, plan your visit to NOFO's Mattituck shop at 1325 Wickham Ave. If one tire keeps losing air, record when it happens; a useful pressure reading starts with the vehicle's recommendation and a cold tire.

Before you drive

Do not drive to the shop on a flat tire. Stop safely and arrange roadside assistance, or use a suitable spare only when it can be installed safely and according to the vehicle instructions.

How to check tire pressure

Park safely and wait until the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours. Find the front/rear pressure on the door placard or in the manual. Remove the valve cap, press a tire gauge firmly onto the valve, record the reading and replace the cap. Check each tire; the recommended front and rear values can differ.

What to tell the shop

  • Which tire loses air and the dates of repeated warnings.
  • Pressure readings, if already measured safely.
  • Recent tire work, wheel impact or visible damage.

Questions about this visit

Can a tire lose air without a visible nail?

Yes. A valve leak, damage where the tire seals against the wheel, or wheel damage can cause air loss. The source needs inspection; repeated topping-up does not identify the cause.

Which pressure should I use, and is TPMS enough?

Use the vehicle's tire placard or owner's manual, not the maximum number on the tire sidewall. Check with a gauge when cold, at least monthly. TPMS warns of significant underinflation; it does not replace routine pressure checks.

Should I let air out after driving to match the cold-pressure label?

No. Driving warms the tires and raises pressure. Do not bleed a hot tire down to the cold specification. Recheck cold; a damaged or repeatedly deflating tire needs inspection rather than repeated inflation.

About this service

Tire service at NOFO covers new tire sales and ordering, mounting, balancing, puncture assessment and repair, rotation, TPMS service and wheel alignment at our Mattituck shop. Share your vehicle and tire size when you contact us so we can discuss suitable options and availability.

An inspection comes before a repair recommendation. Uneven wear, pressure loss and vibration can involve the tire, wheel or suspension, so we look at the concern before recommending replacement, balancing or alignment. Tire repairs depend on the location of the damage and the tire’s condition; a puncture does not automatically mean a tire can be repaired.

Signs to have checked

  • Tread looks worn, cracked or uneven across the tire
  • A tire loses pressure or the TPMS warning stays on
  • Vibration, pulling or a steering wheel that sits off center
  • You need replacement tires or scheduled tire rotation

What the visit can involve

  • Tire sales and ordering, with fitment and availability confirmed for your vehicle
  • Mounting and balancing when fitting suitable tires
  • Puncture inspection and repair when the damage and tire condition permit
  • Tire rotation, TPMS service and wheel alignment as appropriate for the concern

Common questions

Can you order and install new tires?

Yes. NOFO offers tire sales and ordering, mounting and balancing. Send your vehicle details and tire size, if known, so the shop can confirm fitment, available options and timing.

Can every puncture be repaired?

No. The shop must inspect the damage and tire condition before confirming whether repair is appropriate. Describe any pressure loss when you contact us, and call before driving if the tire or vehicle feels unsafe.

Do you offer alignment and TPMS service?

Yes. Wheel alignment, tire rotation and tire-pressure monitoring system service are available. The shop will review your symptoms and explain which checks or services apply before work is authorized.

How are balancing, alignment and rotation different?

Balancing addresses the tire-and-wheel assembly’s weight distribution. Alignment concerns wheel angles. Rotation changes tire positions when the vehicle’s tire sizes and manufacturer’s instructions allow it. Tell us whether you notice vibration, pulling, wear or pressure loss so we can choose the right checks.

What information helps when ordering tires?

Send the vehicle year, make and model, the size on the current tire, and any wheel modifications. We confirm suitable fitment before ordering. For inflation pressure, use the vehicle’s door-jamb placard or owner’s manual; the maximum shown on the tire sidewall is not the vehicle’s recommended pressure.
