First make sure you truly have a flat. I have had my flat tire monitor come on under extreme cornering. I believe sidewall flex made the circumference a little smaller triggering the monitor

Goodyear warranties the tires not the dealership. If the tire is bad, the dealership will gladly sell you a new tire, while goodyear will pro-rate the tire for you.

Wow - TWO flat tires in one night! You're really unlucky!


Or was that other identical post just a mistake...
