Has anyone had a flat and successfully used the tire sealant/inflator kit?

Did it work or did you have to get your ITS towed? Either way how did it go?

I used it on my TLX when I managed to run over a construction staple. It worked long enough to limp to the dealer for a tire repair. Once I got there, they were able to clean out the sealant and plug the tire. Wasn't overly impressed with the effectiveness of the seal, but it did get me out of a bind. The service department did say that they can't always clean the sealant out and therefore can't effectively balance the tire, so there's definitely a potential to ruin the tire by using it.

Yes, I got a flat a few months back and the tire inflator worked just fine. Was able to drive it to an America's tire to have it cleaned out/repaired without issue.
