Good luck but you're SoL, unless that tire shop is feeling extra charitable

Ask me why I think this way...

Unfortunately, probably true.

Send them a link to this thread?

Also, as mentioned elsewhere, cell phone pics and walk around video every time you entrust your vehicle into someone else's care. At the point of dropoff, not at home beforehand.

So sorry to see it. Been there.

I don't know about that. I'd opt to bring in just the component vs. the entire vehicle every time. Owen is contending with three gouges on the same wheel. It could always be worse... he could be dealing with damaged bodywork, etc.


I hope the shop does the right thing. However, I'm afraid that the cost to repair in this instance will be your tuition in the school of caveat emptor.
