Stories like this is why I'm not even taking it in for the free oil changes and tire rotations. I'll do my own oil changes and Discount gives me free tire rotations since I already swap the wheels.

Not sure what the dealership was doing with my wheel. This is the 2nd time I picked up my truck in my total of 25,000 miles and my steering wheel would shake above 60 mph. My other 3 wheels are fine but this one seems to have excessive amounts of wheel weights. So much that they even double stacked it to get it balance right. So much for a tire rotation and oil change

What the hell is that fucking mess! That’s enough weight to add up to another wheel!

agreed and i don't mean retarded as in mentally handicapped, but rather just stupid- they should know better and they are just lazy.

Along with the wheels all scratched up and the tires dramatically overinflated.

Seems there's A LOT more to this story than you are divulging..................Such as:
The tires are not the original!
Who changed the tires?
Why? Doesn't seem like they could have been worn out? I've got 20,000 miles on my original tires and they still look like new.
Did the original tire need/have an abundance of wheel weights or did this issue appear after you had the tires changed?
