Tire “L” to start the weekend

[Robot-Wrangler]

Joined the tire club unfortunately today after about 31 days of ownership of my ‘25 XLT. Could hear the air coming out but my pressure on the driver side front tire and the dash screen did not give me any indication of the issue.

Any recommendations are appreciated as I only have the bumper to bumper coverage.

looked like my tire costs about $200 at Walmart fwiw

was told by my local dealer to bring it to quick lane tire & auto. Curious if my ford points will help me out in this scenario or if anyone has dealt with quick lane

That's an easy repair using a patch plug from the inside, don't sweat it and yes, you can pay with Fordpass points at any Ford Service center.

I am not a little old lady.
My Mom went in for tires once, I will not name the company.
she called me all upset. She got tires alright and was charged $800 for a not needed brake job.
When the police got there I got up off the managers chest and stopped beating on his face.
With the threat of me going public they decided not to press charges.
My Mom got all her money back and kept the tires at no charge.
About a year later the company and all its locations vanished. It’s not what you know it’s who, sometimes.

Nobody F’s with Mom’s or Little Old Ladies.
‘Tires ain’t pretty’
Remember that ?

I am a knight of the old code.

“Be without fear in the face of your enemies. Be brave and upright that God may love thee. Speak the truth always, even if it leads to your death. Safeguard the helpless and do no wrong. That is your oath.”

That's a cute story, lol.

95% of the time that kind of puncture is easily repaired. Good luck!

If you have les Schwab, they will fix it for free. And actually patch the tire from the inside. A plug is really a temporary fix. And yes I too have had plugs before that out lasted the tire.

The dealer will bend you over for that tire repair. Discount Tire will do it for free. Discount Tire also offers lifetime tire rotation and balance for ~$80 on new vehicle tires. The Continentals are not great tires but will last longer with regular tire rotations. If you have a Sam’s Club membership they will do it for free too.

My Continental's are at 36,000 and look good for another 10,000. I do have them rotated every oil change.
