I called, and they said it was impossible the two could be related, and did not offer to cure it. They told me to tow it back, on my dime, to sell me a repair or replacement. I later called again and explained that I took it elsewhere where they told me that the valve stem had been damaged. He asked "why did you take it somewhere else?" then "have a good day sir" and hung up on me. This issue required me to walk one mile to my home late at night in February, another mile up hill the following day, cost for tow, and the cost for an extra repair.

I would not trust Goodyear for anything. Not this specific location but, if they allow it at one…read morethey allow it at others. So much for Goodyear's good reputation. Our local service center screwed up. They failed to diagnose a basic problem. Damaged the car and commit fraud when they did not tell me and tried to cover up their screw up.

Good tires and brakes are everything for Ithaca's hills. AAA put the spare tire on. Wilcox patched the tire, put the spare back under the vehicle and put on the Bridgestone Blizzaks Snow tires. They were able to get the tires the next day and get them on the rims and balanced. Total cost was just under $1k, but these are the best tires on the market. Wilcox even gave a 1/2 off tire repair. They put the seasonal tires in the back of the car nicely wrapped in a plastic tire bag and said to come back in Spring to put them back on. Wish they had onsite tire storage, but found a small 5x5 storage locker at Bolt Storage for $20 a month in Newsfield, NY (20 minutes south of Ithaca and 1/2 the price).

I received my wheel in the exact condition in which I left it--didn't even buff out the curb rash, nothing--and the bill was $545. They did mount a $200 tire as I told them too, because the wheel does hold air just fine. I paid it and left-- I wouldn't go back.
