“I was driving on the highway 95 coming back from daytona when a driver let me know that my tires where low so I when to a gas station to put some air in and thats when I notice that my tires had a lot of nails lthe 4 tires. This is ridiculous. My tires are lnot even 2 years old and I have the receipt to prove it. Someone has to do something. Because I have a new born baby with me and driving with flat tires is not an option. Please take my complaint in consideraration. Thank you”
