Check the boot.

To my surprise there was an air compressor in with the jack and other bits. Don't know if the newer models are carrying them but I know my 09 JCW didn't have it.

Probably because the kumhos are not runflats.

There's some US law that requires them to put the pump and fix a flat in since the car doesn't have a spare or runflats.

Can I suggest keeping a tire plug kit and pliers on board. Fix-a-flat is a bad fix(no pun) and it will kill the wheel.
