Donald's Tire Trouble is a cartoon by Walt Disney Productions, featuring their character Donald Duck.

Plot
Donald Duck is happily driving along the road in his car when he suddenly gets a flat tire. Confident in his mechanical skills, he sets out to change the tire—but things quickly spiral into chaos.
As Donald struggles to remove the old tire, everything seems to go wrong. He fights with the jack, which refuses to cooperate, and wrestles with the lug nuts, which won’t budge. When he finally manages to get the tire off, he faces an even greater challenge: putting the new tire on!
His short temper gets the best of him as the tire bounces away, causing Donald to chase after it in frustration. In the end, after many failures and a lot of angry quacking, Donald finally succeeds—only for something unexpected to go wrong again!
