When I mentioned this on return I was told that they appreciate being informed when a customer handles an urgent maintenance issue. I'm pretty sure that the nail was in there when I received the car. I got the receipt via email but no notice that I'm being charged for the tire. I'm looking at my info and I'm not quite sure if I'm considered responsible. It was a Firestone when the factory tires were Goodyears, but I'm guess that doesn't matter with most cars. The tire had been trashed so they mounted a new tire. I didn't have it but they said they would just give them a bit more info. They had to get a purchase order from the rental agency, and even called me later because they had looked at my rental agreement but didn't have the number. Long story short - I eventually brought it to a Firestone shop near Disneyland and left the wheel there to be fixed. I even pulled up to a gas station and it wouldn't pump to more than 3 PSI according to the monitoring system. Then in the morning I was just driving it a few blocks for breakfast near our motel when I realized that it really was out of air. When I got home to load it I just tried to pump air with a hand pump and it wasn't changing anything so I just gave up and drove it to Southern California near Magic Mountain. I've borrowed my parents' car and that thing seemed to have perpetual TPMS issues. I picked up the rental and I wasn't sure what the issue was with a low pressure warning. Any experiences with this? I declined all insurance or damage waivers and didn't pay for roadside service figuring that I already had a AAA membership.
