Returned to the car at a Shifnal address or an i54 bay and found a tyre sitting on the ground? Keep it where it is; a fitter arrives and settles the fix with you.
Flat tyres on the M54 corridor are often found rather than felt: a car left in a Wellington town centre car park all day, a pool car on the i54 park after the weekend, a family car on a Lawley drive first thing. Something sharp was collected on the A41 or A442 days earlier and let the air out slowly. The risk now is driving to the nearest forecourt and destroying a tyre that could have been saved.
A few hundred yards on an empty tyre is enough to crease the wall and shred its lining. Leave the car, call 07473 720871, and say which junction area you are in and what the sidewall reads. On arrival the fitter lifts the car, checks the tyre over, and either repairs a tread puncture to BS AU 159 or fits a new tyre when the damage rules that out. You agree the price before anything starts.
On run-flat tyres? They behave differently once deflated, so check the handbook's limits and read our page on run-flat tyres; we fit replacement run-flat tyres at the car near the M54 as well.
If the job turns out to be different, see broken tyre replacement, puncture repair on the M54 or emergency tyre repair.
Drives in Featherstone, Shifnal and Lawley, the i54 roads off J2 and Telford services all work. A tyre that deflates while you are on the M54 means leaving at the next junction or waiting for recovery.

Flat tyre near Bloxwich after leaving the M54 and heading east? Bell Lane, the A4124, runs past Turnberry Estate, and Bloxwich station is a clear landmark to stop near. Pull into a quieter Bloxwich road, put the hazards on, then phone with the street name and what you heard or felt.
A flat found after an M54 drive is best looked over before anyone moves the car. Go round all four, then search the deflated one for a nail, a perished valve or a Telford kerb graze. Driving it to a garage in town risks shredding the sidewall and turning a repair into a replacement. Space-savers are made for short, slow trips only. Keep the car in a Wellington car park at J7 or on the drive at home.
