Minor car woe resolved
In less than a week after getting my new car the first problem shows up. I expect “as-is” to mean “as- is” (don’t get me started on extended warranties) so I had Larry’s take a look first. They pulled out a screw and I thought I was good, well worth $6. But at the end of the day the tire was down 10lbs again. Back at Larry’s they discover the small bubble and leak in the sidewall which cannot be fixed. The tire needs replaced.
So back to the dealership. It seems that when the dealership took the car off the truck the front right tires sidewall got pinched on the ramp creating a leak and a bubble in the sidewall. It took a few hours to get a replacement tire of the same make, model and size but they replaced the tire without fuss.
