I know I know. Support Walmart??? I just needed a frickin oil change. What could go wrong. Brought my car in during lunch. 35 minutes later I stopped by the shop and see the guy parking it in the parking lot. He says nothing as he walks in. (Short term memory he checked me in.) So I told the guy at counter that's my car and the guy slides a form in front of me and says please sign this. Apparently you have a tire that will fail if you drive it off the lot. I said wow what's wrong with it? He says he has no idea. I said could I talk to the tech? No he's moved on to other vehicles. I said we'll if it's dangerous what do I do? He says you could replace it. I said I'm not replacing it until I see what's wrong with it. The manager says I'll need to wait 45 minutes for them to put it back on the rack. I mention they might of paged me to come look at it. He said they looked for me. :) I doubt that since when I walked up they didn't even realize it was my car. I said could I speak to a manager? He says sure. The manager proceeds to tell me it Walmarts policy to protect them from some recent law suits. I mention how they could of handled it and he agrees but insists I sign this form. I sign it and go out and look at the tire. Look and feels fine to me. I call Discount and they check and since I have the free replacement warranty "no hassle" they will take care of me. Whoo hoo!
But I need a new place to get oil changes!
