Taken for inspection at Merchants Tire. Failed inspection because "rear rotors rusted and pitted not enough braking surface." Wheel stud broke on right(?), rear(?) and had to be replaced. The stud replacement price inflated what should have been a $16 state inspection price. Did not have the time to get it taken care of in Lynchburg because of the short holiday window. Will get looked at back in Knoxville.

Driver-side, front headlight bulb replaced with Sylvania 9003 Basic halogen bulb. The faulty bulb would not light on low-beams, but would light on high-beams; the turn signal did not increase its period either.

Serviced at Pep Boys. Engine oil: Pennzoil Platinum 5W-20 Oil filter: Proline (PPL14459) All four tires reportedly cupping. I was shown and felt this on one of the tires. The cupping likely caused the alignment to be out. Cupping is not bad enough to suggest new tires. Suggest maintenance: replacement of front struts (~$842.94) and rear shocks (~$285.54). Alignment may help, but because tires have been rotated it is not possible to tell if the cause is the front or rear suspension. Alignment performed. Alignment report with receipt.

Fuse replaced to fix 12v power outlet. Dwight [Pep Boys] suggested it may have been the radio fuse. The radio clock was reset, which lends support to his comment.
