Shunt Malfunction Signs. If your child becomes very ill (persistent vomiting, extreme sleepiness, severe headache), seek medical assistance immediately. Call your childâs doctor if you think that your child is having a shunt malfunction based on the symptoms described above. Remember that you may see only one or two warning signs at a time.
Replace the tires at least every 6 years. If you're not sure, the minimum replacement time that is recommended by the NHTSA is six years regardless of use, with 10 years being the maximum service life for tires. Check your owner's manual for specific recommendations related to your car.
An old tire poses a safety hazard. For some people, old tires might never be an issue. If you drive a typical number of miles, somewhere around 12,000-15,000 miles annually, a tire's tread will wear out in three to four years, long before the rubber compound does. But if you only drive 6,000 miles a year, or have a car that you only drive on weekends, aging tires could be an issue. The age warning also applies to spare tires and new tires that have never been used but are old. What Happens to a Tire as It Ages?
