Tire Jack

Hello everybody!! I have recently noticed how my used Outlook didn't come with a tire jack :-X ! It's supposed to be inside the inside-left panel thing in the back, right? Well I opened that and there is nothing but a bunch of wires and an empty space! I'm lucky none of my tires have gone out while I was away from home! :eek: So, the big question is, where can I get one? Thanks! :D

yes- check to be sure there is an actual spare (steel spare donut) under the rear bumper.
If not there- then check to see if theres a WINCH. could be they used the spare and jack- and never put them back.

this is the winch..
and the jack on my Traverse. it should be very similar on yours.
If you dont have it- then a jack may be useless- as you dont have a spare (the spare tire kit also has a cable to hold the full size spare in the trunk area)

the small spare in the trunk- that would be the FULL SIZE if it were flat

yes stored with the jack.

Imagine this scenario.
You and family are on the road-
you get a flat.
You put the full size flat tire in the rear storage area after you put the doughnut on.
Youre headed down the highway- and crash- or make a severe panic stop-
That tire in the back- can become a very heavy loose item in the cabin-
Or maybe the vehicle rolls over- that tire is going to be bouncing around inside the vehicle-
hiting everyones head..
The cable helps hold the tire in place.

the cable should be located in the area that the jack is.
On mine- there is also a large bag- to place the dirty full size flat- in the bag was the cable.


on the base vehicles- it comes with fix a flat. (I think a pump too- electric).
If you have a base- you can order the spare tire kit----- OR--- if you order the tow kit- the spare tire kit is automatically added.

Since you bought yours used- and you have the winch and tire--- it sure sounds like the previous owner never put it back- or it was taken out while it sat no the lot.
