I brought my car in because a tire blew out. The service guy who greeted me and his manager claimed that it was driver error, that I must have hit a pot hole or something. I explained to them that was not the case and that the tire should be replaced as it was under warranty (it had about 250 miles on it). They told ME to call the manufacturer of the tire to handle the warranty and file a claim myself, and that there was nothing for them to do other than replace the tire and charge me $160.
This was not the right course of action. When the tire was replaced (and I had to pay for it because they argued with me about why the tire had two massive holes in the sidewall) the manufacturer told me that the DEALER had to take the tire and submit a claim to them. It was not my job to do that.
Of course by this time the tire was long gone. So I got stuck paying $160 for a tire that should have been sent back to the manufacturer, by the dealer, to process the claim. But because the service manager didn't understand that, I got stuck.
I sure hope they don't think I will ever come back there and trust them to fix or service my car. The manager should be embarrassed by his unacceptable lack of knowledge about how to file a claim for tires on cars that they sell.
