WOW,I didnt know that,do you have runflat tires?Do you have a pump of some sort in the trunk area,I work at a Honda dealer and the Odyessy Touring van with PAX tires(run flats) came with a can of fix a flat and a pump in the place of the spare tire,also some of the Accord Hybrids.You got to have something ,I think maybe it just missing.Call your dealer,I just checked mine to be sure I have one(and I do),although I do not have the track pack.I also found a little funnel like thing what the heck is that for.

I got this e-mail from the dealer

"your vehicle came with an Emergency Tire Inflation Kit to be used if
you have a flat tire. If in case of a blow out or a tire that will not hold
air you would have to call Roadside Assistance"

Good for 150 miles at 55 mph
Maybe the trackpack doesn't have one to keep the weight down who know? I don't know what the little funnel for either.

yeah, probably is for weight reduction,Honda customers never use there infator kits,most of them have there van towed to the dealer when they have a PAX flat.Could you imagine being on the side of the highway with a flat tire and trying to use that stupid infator thing,what if you get a large hole,throw it out and get yourself a spare tire and jack.

as for the funnel, does your mustang have a gas cap? if not then the funnel is to allow you to add fuel from a fuel container.
