Do you know that there’s such a thing as getting the tires on your car rotated?
If not, you’re gonna learn something new today…just like the woman you’re about to meet did.
Her name is Nia and she posted a TikTok video where she admitted that she had a bit of a run-in with a mechanic at an auto shop because she didn’t know what it meant to get her tires rotated.
Her caption reads,“I swear I [didn’t] know [that’s] what rotating tires meant.”
Nia said, “I thought that when you get your tires rotated they just spin them really, really fast.”
Nia explained that she had to get a flat tire fixed. She thought that the mechanic might have been trying to rip her off so she said she’d take it elsewhere because she only wanted to get it patched.
She said, “When I get my car back, the flat tire that was in the back left is now on the front right. So now I’m mad because I’m like, ‘Y’all popped one of my tires because I didn’t want to buy a tire from you.’”
That’s when the mechanic told her that they rotated her tire.
Nia said, “I’m like, ‘Okay, you rotated it’ What’s that have to do with now I have a flat tire back here and I’ve got a flat tire up here, why is that the case?’”
She then said to the mechanic, “So you fixed my tire and then you pooped that one?”
He again told her that they rotated the tires and then it clicked. Nia said, “You take the tires off the car and rotate them around! I felt so dumb.”
Now you’re getting it!
Take a look at her story.
