Went to this firestone sunday 10-12 14. I explained to them that I had a screw in my rear tire and I wanted it plugged. They called me into look at the tire and told me they wouldn't fix it. Firestone stated the screw was to near the side wall. I later used a ruler and it was 2.3/4 inches a way from the sidewall. This screw was in the raised part of the tread. Friestone refused to fix the tire. Stated it was to close to the side wall. Firestone wanted me to buy a new tire (plus it had to match the other side so two tires) as they now stated the tire is old and cracked. May not be able to fitted back on the rim.
I told them take my truck off the jack. I went to Sears they fixed the tire with a plug had no issues with placing the tire back on the rim.l had Sear check the tire and they wrote in their review of the tire it had no crack.
