"How to change a tire" - recommended video

[ThisWas]

Several months ago I watched a YouTube video by "Not a mechanic-Betty":
How to change a tire (2022 Ford Maverick) NZ6C-17A078-AA


Ten days ago I got a puncture in a brand new snow tire.
I pulled off the highway as far as I could, jacked up my Maverick while tractor trailers whizzed past at 75mph, and was very glad I'd watched Betty's video.
The owner's manual isn't very detailed... no mention of the safety cable for example.

I could have called for roadside assistance but I didn't have time to wait.

Sounds like Kathryn Hepburn

Thanks for sharing.

Ford should have a 'Tire changing' Icon on the center screen that plays a 90 second VOD showing the tool location and steps in changing the tire. Even though we know the process, it would be nice to quickly watch it in the comfort of the cab as a refresher before changing.... (or just save this video on your phone)..

After seeing that video some time ago I did a DIY tire rotation. Glad I had the experience before a roadside mishap. My back spent several days chastising me for my efforts, though.

I’ve changed multiple tires. When I worked for a plumbing company, I had a ford transit. By far the hardest tire change due to trying to remove the tire. No manual and no signal, just had to figure it out. Always good to know
