Q. What did they tell you when you asked for a new tire?

Assuming that the above is true, have you contacted tire rack? Most of these places have a contract with tire rack at which point I am sure tire rack has more pull than you do.


If you haven't done so already, contact tire rack and explain the situation and that you've requested a new tire but they are giving you the run around. A decision should have been made on the spot, you are going to tell me no manager was on duty?
Answers.
1-Yes, new tires were purchased. Delivered directly to my house. I inspected them when they came and before I took them to the shop.

2-I inspect the tires prior to taking the keys. (really was mostly checking the rims). Find the screw.

3-I inform the from desk, owner is gone/technicians are gone. Before he even mentions it to me I tell him that if he is thinking about telling me that they can patch it and call it a day he better not even say. He says it anyways. At b\this point I refuse to touch take the car and request to talk to the owner.

4-He says that they can probably buy a new one.
Then the runs around like a chicken with it's head cut off, doesn't really give me a definite answer.

5- At this point I'm freaking out. I'm thinking "How the F am I going to go to work in the am..." He offers me a loaner from the shop.
As of right now I have not talked to the owner, they were closed today (saturday).

I'll make sure to get in contact with Tirerack if they give me the run around when I talk to him Monday.
