Goodyear was able to patch that one as well.
I’m just past 20k and I have yet to buy a replacement tire.

But I have had tires replaced 5 times and patched twice under the tire & wheel replacement warranty I bought when I got the car. So every tire has been replaced at least once. Two for broken steel belts, two for side wall ruptures and I can’t remember why for the 5th, but it was likely one of those two things. The patches were for nail-in-tread. The good thing is I haven’t had to spend for tires....yet. The bad thing is the wear is uneven, since some tires are newer than others.
