745am, arrived in parking lot. 753am, Spoke Brandon, I have appointment at 8am, install 2 new front tires on SC430. He said it’s $48.00 to install the tires on the rims. I told him they are pre-paid thru Affirm. They received the tires yesterday at 12pm. He checked, Giga-tires wasn’t in the system, he had to call Affirm, it was under a different name, showed him my confirmation email from Affirm. He needed a Purchase Order from them. He called and spoke to Naomi. She confirmed purchase and gave him the P.O.We’re set, took down the current mileage and I gave him the lug nut and hex key. He said it’ll take 45 mins or so. 809am, Mechanic took the car into the bay. 822am, Brandon asked if I want to rotate the new tires to the back as a normal procedure. I told him Yes, I believe I was told that previously by Discount Tire. 833am, Brandon showed me the front pads need to be replaced, rear pads ok, but the clips need to be replaced, not holding the inner rear brake pad properly, rear driver side. Causing squeaking sounds from time to time. Labor cost $170.00 per hour, about 1.4 hrs, $250.00 for labor, if I bring parts in. He charges $209.00, Wagner ceramic pads, includes turning rotors. He said rotors look thick enough, but need to take measurements at that time. 926am, Brandon said the vehicle is done, Tyler mechanic will bring it up front. 936am, done, checked out with Brandon, gave me paperwork with receipt, and returned hex, lug nut.

909am, Paid $58.00 via WFV to Luis. Will pick up car after 1pm. 823am, spoke to Kyle, let’s just do the install with old tires for now. I can bring in new tires and they will charge for install and can add road hazard if tires are similar to their inventory and brand new. 804am, spoke to Kyle, Service Tech, discussed stall old tires on new rims, as long as the tires are still good. Gave him the Blue TPMS Sensor, take about 45 mins. Will come back. 757am, Luis took my information making a wait list, will open at 8am. 738am, arrived at Discount Tire, open at 8am, here for appointment at 815am. Purchased 2 new Lexus SC430 rims.

Tire pressure monitor light on - began flashing after running over easement on North 5th road, hitting the right side front tire. - sensor warning sound now working & light is flashing. - flashing light means the sensor battery is bad, need to replace battery or TPMS. Will check with Walmart if they can order 2 sensors for the front tires for now. Ask for price…
