Tire warranty info for 2013 MINI

Does anyone know if the 72 month limited warranty covers a nail in the tire??? My MINI is 6 months old and has a nail in its rear left tire.

The warranty CD that came with the car doesn't specify if it does.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Beep Beep!

Unless you have the Road Hazard warranty, the tires are not covered for nails and punctures.

A nail puncture can safely be repaired by a tire shop.

Yes even run flats. They usually can plug and patch it as long as it is in the tread.
