In other news, a man deliberately burns his house down in anger when a light-bulb blows out on his back porch. "I called the builder, and he said I had to change it MYSELF .. what is this country coming to??" asked the enraged owner.

While the Volt does not come with a spare, it does come with a compressor and slime kit. I purchased a similar kit for my Model 3 as it, along with a tire plug kit, will allow me to fix most flats. Quickly without the time waiting on a tow.
I want to party with this dude!
I agree with you on the slime and I have avoided it. But in the last 3 years I plugged 5 tires, two on the Model 3. Nails happen. And when you plug the compressor is your friend. Never took more than 10 minutes.I wouldn't use a slime kit when towing is free. Slime kit doesn't "fix most flats".
When did Tesla start towing the car to a SC for a flat? I thought Mobile Service or a Ranger or whatever would come out and do a wheel/tire swap so you could continue on your way. You would then pick up your original wheel/tire from the SC once it was repaired. Was that just for S and X?
I understand, but I can't even get the tire off the car.
I agree that the Tesla should come with a tire repair kit at the very least, but this hardly something to sell a vehicle over.
I would suggest practicing with a plug kit, and compressor since it's the ideal case of a slow leak.

I confess to never having done this, though I have the tools/plugs if needed. One thing has always puzzled me .. how do you find the source of the leak (other than listen for it or pour water and look for bubbles)?
I believe the prius comes with a 12v pump and sealant kit. I had to buy my own portable 12v pump and plug kit for the Y.
