I haven't thought about this in a while. This situation I had, I finally got tired of trying to chase people down. If I chose to pursue it further, I felt I would have to get an attorney on it.

Last year I purchased a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tires. They have less than 10,000 miles on them and I hit a nail on my way to work. I got another tire on there temporarily and headed over to my local Wal-Mart store and showed them the nail. They wouldn't patch the tire because it is supposedly too close to the sidewall. It is in fact 1 inch from the wall. Since they don't stock these tires in-store, I am told that I will have to order a tire online and have it shipped to the store and be reimbursed then. Problem now is that the treadwear is at 4/32 (yes, in less than 10,000 miles and under 1 year) so they told me that even after I order this tire and come in, I may get stiffed depending on if they decide to go by mileage or treadwear. I am still unsure what I'm going to do. I don't want to get a single new tire with 3 others nearing the end of their usable lifetime. If I decide to continue with their suggestion, I'll post back the result. The Road Hazard Warranty is a joke as well. Last year I purchased a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 tires.
