Tire jack not included.

Did anybody else have issues with their tire jack not being included in the car. If im not mistaking it goes in the trunk i see the place it goes but theres nothing.

I know the SS models do not come with a spare tire nor tire jack...Run flat tires are standard.

You have runflat tires. You did not get a jack with the car. If you get a flat you drive to the nearest dealership or runflat tire repair place.

What's the point of having an inflator if you have a flat tire with run flats?

I don't have runflats, so I did get a tire pump. I also grabbed some of those tire plugs off Amazon just in case. They are not the safest thing in the world because they can fling out, but they will be better than nothing while I drive to a tire shop. When I used to wheel they got me off the trail a time or two, then the tire shop just cut them and put on a patch.

Well I ordered new winter wheels, and thought Ill just use the jack stand, swap them out in the shed (live in an apt building, and have a covered parking spot), avoid TPMS cost. But WHALLA! No jack in the trunk. And now Im literally stuck, until they clear snow on the driveway, and take it to a shop....a little pissed honestly at GM

The way the car is designed there's no way to jack it with one of those cheap jacks they used to supply with the cars anyway, without damaging it... My biggest worry is taking it into be serviced, as we've had 3 cars with rocker panel damage from being lifted, the last one was our gen 5 Camaro we had, and it was damaged by the dealer...
