    Patterson Tire Co. Archived Message

    Posted by One Of Us on April 25, 2014, 8:13 pm

    While watching the st. louis blues game tonight I saw a Patterson tire Co. commercial and it reminded me of all the times they screwed me over. Includes not putting on the oil cap and denting my hood as the hood was closed. Got a free $30.00 front end alignment from that like Icould get my hood fixed for that. It seems the 12.95 oil change back in the day always kept me coming back for the hour and twenty minute oil changes. Always hoping it would be quicker the next time. Lonzo was the best but brian....once he got the counter/desk job was a real treat. One morning I was going down 162 by 255 east bound and heard a noise in the fender well at 6:15 on a weekend morning. A screw or nail popped out of my tire and air was leaking fast. I turned around quickly and went to patterson for a plug. No one was there but around 7:00 brian pulls up and I greet him with a hello and explain what had happened and that I was headed to trenton il. for my job which I was supposed to be at 7:00. Now I remembered him as being a garage mechanic but now with his collard shirt and clipboard going into the shop that morning he simply said you will have to wait for one of my mechanics to do that. I asked brian how long would that be and he said 8:00 and walked through the now unlocked front door of the new shop. That's right he did not once stop walking/ unlocking the door to look at me and shut me out. Wee-Wee Brian
