They said I could get 4 new tires FREE! All I had to do was pay for labor and disposal and buy a warranty.

So I have 4 brand new tires, but I had to pay $129. Is that free?

Hmmmm! That's a tricky one twink! As you've had 22,000 miles I'd say that might have been a good deal, BUT on the other hand they were guaranteed for 60,000.

Seeing they were recalled, then it wasn't your fault. You should not have to pay a cent!

Soooo! In MHO, no. They were definitely NOT free.

I think they saw you coming.............!
