Short YouTube advice clip by Mike Melton explaining that dealerships commonly skip tire rotations included in service agreements because technicians are paid little for the task. He recommends marking the inside of each tire with a marker before service so you can check on pickup; warns skipped rotations shorten tire life and may void manufacturer warranty claims.
Watch out. When you let dealerships rotate your tires, let me tell you why. A lot of us go out and buy new cars. So when we buy new cars, we get a little service agreement. If you pay extra for that. Right. They change your oil, they do other maintenance stuff. You know, part of that package. Part of that package is rotating your tires. So I'm giving you a little trick because technicians at dealerships do not get paid hardly nothing to rotate your tires. That's why a lot of times that will get skipped over. So I'm going to give you a little trick because when they say they rotate your tires, they really do not. So what I want you to do is take a marker, mark the inside part of your tire somewhere that you know where it's at. When you go to pick up that vehicle, I want you to look at those tires and see if they've been rotated. Nine times out of 10, that technician did not rotate those tires. So. So your tires are not going to last as long. So when you go to try to go get those warrantied out, the manufacturer will not warrant them because they haven't been rotated. So just watch out. That's definitely a little trick that I know. Make sure you're marking those tires.
