    I was just joking about the tire warranty scam. Yes, we have 3 years of roadside assistance in Canada. And my wife has CAA plus, good for 120 miles of towing to bring the car back home.

    as long as it's not in the side wall, a plug should be just fine

    This is the first that I have heard of a US Touring equipped with Goodyear tires. Please identify the size and the model of your tires.
    Thanks...

    I know how you feel. With 200 miles on mine I got, not one, but two screws in two different tires. I have had plugs in many tires, but I would also get it patched from the inside.
