I've had a nail in one tire which lead to a slow leak. Went to Tire Choice Auto Service on Lagrange Blvd and they tried to upsell me BIG TIME. I went outside to watch what they were doing and when I saw my hood up I asked the tech what he was doing. He said my power steering was malfunctioning!!!!! I know it wasn't, my low tire was making the steering a little stiffer. Then they tell me I'm going to have to replace my tires because the nail is too close to the sidewall. IT WASN'T!!!! Noticed that there was only senior ladies' cars being worked on there. Once I told them I didn't want any of what they were telling me I needed, they got VERY RUDE. They even tried to not put my Acura tire key back. Thank goodness I was watching and got the key back. Got the tire repaired at a Honda dealership and all is well. Ladies beware of that place. So hard to trust.
