Walmart Auto Service

Last weekend, up north. Got a flat. Goto walmart. “You are next in line”…..2 Hours Later…Finally car in garage…1.5 hours later..”It can’t be fixed”….”Cant I get a new tire on there then?”…”No – we took off your old tire, inspected it, and put it back on. If you want a new tire, then you need to wait 2 hours”…Called L&M Supply…”Can you fix tire?”…”If you get it here before 5″…Time = 4:45….Got to L&M…15 minutes…10$ later…Tire fixed.

Moral of the story: Don’t goto Walmart to get your vehicle fixed!!

WooHoo you are right on hte money on this. Only go to walmart if you want to sit in line forever or have them be out of stock on sale items. All this and they are driving american jobs overseas.

Called Walmart at 6:00pm on Sat night.Told man That answered phone that I had a flat tire.He told me to have my car up at Walmart by seven o’clock and it could get fixed by the time that they close at eight.I pumped up the tire and half way there I had to pump it up again.I finally made it there,holding my breath,at seven o’clock.I was told that there was no way that they could get it in to look at because he wasn’t aloud to keep any one for overtime.So I traveled 12 miles on a tire that was leaking and wasted gas ,at the price gas is, for nothing. THANK-YOU WALMART !!!!

yeah, I suppose walmart AUTO service handles AUTO’s and tires are on AUTOs… anyways, it wouldnt matter if walmart didnt run out every small shop in town, being it hardware, food, clothing, or mechanics.

Oh, and I suppose I would have fixed a flat tire in the middle of no where, away from home, like MacGyver, with duct tape and a lighter…
