I bought Goodyear tires at a dealership. They said they had to order them from Chrysler. The dealership had to balance the tires 3 times. I was without my car for 5 days, but they did provide a rental. I was called to drive the car Tuesday with the head mechanic, and the front right side was still wobbly. The mechanic said it was the tires because they were Goodyear and not Michelin's (that's what was on the car originally).

I was told today that they (dealership) contacted Chrysler and they said no, they will not take the tires back. I have only driven on the tires 3 times, once back to the dealership after they put the tires on.
