OUCH
I have a 2019 Subaru Outback (AWD) . It’s going to be 7 years old shortly and has 61,000 miles on it as I average <8,000 a year. I have limited knowledge of cars and tires. 2022 I went to the East Lansing Costco and bought all new tires. 2024 I had a tire repair of the valve as it was leaking. This last week the repair failed and they repaired it again. The very nice tire manager I need ALL new tires because there will be too much difference in the traction because of the miles now on the other tires. (I understand this) BUT in 2022, instead of giving me a new tire or tires they repaired that tire. The tires only had about 16,000 miles on them. My question is: Could they have just REPLACED ONLY that tire in 2022? ? WARANTY DOESNT HELP YOU OUT THAT MUCH AS I HAD TO TO REPLACE 4 TIRES INSTEAD OF JUST ONE COSTCO DID GIVE ME SOME DISCOUNTS BUT STILL
