I came originally to have my tire fixed and have the oil changed. I was told I would have to buy a new tire and I said I didn't believe that because it was in the tread. So he took me back to the service and they hadn't even taken the nail out of the tire. So I commented on that and he told me why I would have to get a new tire. So I asked them to pull the nail out. They did it was actually a screw that had broken off. When they pulled it out it was only about a 1/4 inch and when they sprayed water on it there were no bubbles. He said well you really don't need to have it repaired.
I wonder if that same thing happened the last time and he talked me into two new tires? I would never let them change my tires now without looking at it myself.
We had also talked about new windshield wipers but those were not changed.
