Has anyone used the car jack that comes with the car. Did a quick look underneath but didn't see the little reinforced tabs where you would place the little mini jack that comes with the car? Anyone changed a tire on an st lately.

I have used the car jack that came with the car. It's pretty straight forward. Not like the Widow maker of Audi/VW iterations, IMO. If you removed the flap at the indicated points, you will see the reinforced points. You only have to do this if you use the OEM Jack.

Thanks. So the 4 little areas pop off to reveal the reinforced jack points. Thanks.

Be careful to get it right. A shop who put my car in the air bent the rocker and blew off the back edge of the molding. My body guy said with a scissor jack it's best to go to the pinch weld running the length of the car. Thankfully it was fixed without issue.

Yeah, I'm thinking about a low profile jack. Possibly from Sears to have in the hatch. I know my 2011 Fiesta jack was a real chore to use. Thanks again.
