New Tires and Alignment problems!
needed tires pretty bad so i went to sears since all their tires were on sale. bought some yokohamas...dont have the exact brand name with me at the moment. k got them mounted and did alignment..i told them that wasnt neccesary cuz i got the alignment checked when i bought the car.
i get on the highway and she pulls to the right so i turn around and tell them that. they do the alignment again...same shiznit...do it again..same thing..did this 4 times all together and she still pulls to the right...
They said that its a bad set of tires i say they dont know how to do alignment and told them not to touch it and they did anyway.
The numbers for the alignment are now back to the way they were from the first time..the time i bought it in before they mounted the tires...they ordered me another set of tires......
Do you really think it could be the tires??? Please help I am really upset

Actually it could have been a bad set of tires. I have seen countless times where customers at our shop were told to hold off on alignment until they get better tires. But this was basically because of uneven wear on the tires. But I guess a tire company could make a bad tire, nobody's perfect.
Also word of warning. Sears will hire mechanics that have been fired from other jobs. A shop here in town fired a mechanic for three documented mistakes that cost them alot of money including a new motor. I saw the mechanic at SEARS.
