Today I had a mishap. I went grocery shopping this morning. When I was going to leave I noticed a note on my car that said my front passenger tire was almost flat and to go fill it up. I drove very slowly to nearest gas station, filled it and noticed the hissing noise and saw a nail imbedded in it. closest place to anything was down the street at midas. I went there all panicy thinking I'd need a new tire I really can't afford. Luckily, as I found out, if the screw(it turned out to be a screw not a nail) is in the tread the tire can be repaired which I never knew that. It was in the tread so they repaired it for less then $20. In the process of fixing that they noticed that there was also a screw in the passenger rear tire too. They fixed that. On the way home I thought about it and thought it odd that I'd get something in 2 tires on the passenger side but nothing on the driver side. Am I being paranoid or is this a freak incident?
