My Experience with Love's Tire Care!

LOL... Yeah driver you should have stopped one hour west of the 9 mile marker in AZ... You know, at that big truck stop out there.

Its probably hard for east coast people to imagine a place where you can drive 5 hours without seeing a sign or another living thing. Barstow was the first place that he could have had his lugs re-tourqed.

 

I never have a problem with tire from love's,

 

Same difference son. What I am teeling you is you cant feel anything different when the tire starts to lose air. Listen to experience and not your best guess.

 

I don't see how it is a conclusion that IT IS LOVES FAULT. by the info provided here. I have had a tire put on about 4 months ago. the valve stem was not tight as it should be. it leaked. but it took 3 days to leak 10 lbs. if a valve stem was leaking at the time of installation for the tire to come off the rim, when it did. I would think the tire tech or yourself would hear it. but maybe not. just because someone said it's there fault, does not make it so. i.m.o. loves does not deserve a bad rap in this particular case. nor do you, but, from now on, whenever getting tire service, do like I do. I keep my windex bottle available & spray the valve stem without cap & around stem & make sure no leaks. we are glad you had no wrecks or other damage due to this. now lets get back to trucking & remember everyday above ground is a good day!

 

If the valve stem was loose and fell off it was Loves fault. You should not have to go behind these guys work. That is what you pay them for.

 

When new steers are installed, yes, I am really picky on how it performs. I do stop(safely of course) after 1 hr to check pressure and even put my hand on them to see the temp that they are running. Next stop would be 2 hours and then stretch it out to morning and night checks.

I am getting 190k on my michelins xza3. Religiously swap them and rebalance after 50k miles. We get them capped twice for our flatbed trailers. Our bread and butter is dry van light loads which counts for the excellent mileage.

Not trying to knock anybody's else experience, I do things a lot different. I'm the guy that thumps his tires at every am PTI and all fuels. Just a habit. If the tires and turning, I aint earning. lol.

edit: I forgot about the part of spraying soapy water around valve stem and core.

 

I get it, I just don't agree with your logic. So if I understand correctly you want the Loves to take corrective action, but how do you know they didn't? The loves doesn't have to share any disciplinary action they may take with their employee with you. Should the guy be dragged to the parking lot in front of you and stoned to death. 9 out of 10 shops would say "it's not are fault" at first. In the end you got a new tire at no charge to you so I don't get the issue.

 

Only your post sounds a little off and you have a nasty attitude.

 

The stem was not inside the tire? Can picture the nut never getting tightened, and coming off.But the stem can not come out that hole be nice to see the stem .
