Yes and purchased a wheel/tire policy at delivery. Apparently, I've got a magnetic personality when it comes to nails.

I'm visiting the dealer tomorrow for the third tire since taking delivery three months ago. (The dealer doesn't repair tires.)

Wheel/tire insurance has been worth it.

So the nail didn't puncture the tire. They pulled it out this afternoon and all looks good. John, a service advisor at Bob's BMW, said the adjuster sent by Zurich — to make sure everything was being done above board — rode a BMW. Was that you?!? (I see you're in Millersville.)
