Go buy a can of fix a flat!....

Buy 2 incase 1 doesnt put enuff air into it..before you even consider trying to drive it there for repairs...

Otherwise.. remove it and have someone drive you or take a cab...

^ Hi, we don't have a copy of your warranty, so maybe you could read the one that you have & see if it does violate your warranty

Sorry about your flat Is there a reason you don't carry a spare/jack etc ?
I have learned the hard way and did that. Good Luck & I hope it all works out for you...

* Mike

A friend has a spare you can borrow? with a jack?...
Or send him to your house to get your jack and spare?...
