So I brought my car to Firestone to get a tire leak fixed ($20) and tires rotated (free since the tires were from them). It only took 2 hours. On the way home I noticed a little vibration that wasn't there before and was thinking it was just from the tires being swapped around. I get home, go inside, get some trash to throw away, come outside and notice that my hood wasn't closed all the way. Seems like when they went to inspect my battery, for whatever reason, they didn't close the hood all the way. It's a good thing it didn't unlatch while I was going 70 on the interstate and that the vibration was from the hood flopping around a little. This is one reason I like to do things myself. Last time I went to rotate the tires a stud popped because they cross threaded a nut on it. I still want to check my brake wear and I hope the nuts aren't crossed again. That will wait for a cool weekend.
