You can number your tires on the sidewall facing the underside of the Jeep with a grease pencil or equivalent. If it comes back the same you know they lied. I'll be honest, I hate dealers. Cars, motorcycles, RVs you name it, they are all either crooks, incompetent or both. I had a BMW years ago that had a special handling package that included an unusual hard to find tire size. It went to the dealer for the dreaded service light (we called it the $500 light because when it came on you knew it was going to be at least that much) just after replacing all four tires. The dealer pinched a sidewall and blew out the right rear tire putting it on the lift. They had the nerve to call and ask for my road hazard coverage information. I went off on them and they eventually replaced it without using my road hazard. I had a new Honda Civic years ago with a terrible rattle. I went to the dealer several times and the complaint was never duplicated. Finally on the last visit a young guy in a dealership uniform came over to me and asked if he could ride in my car. He immediately heard the noise and it was fixed. Funny thing was he told me the tech assigned to ride with customers and had been with me in my car several times, was so hard of hearing he was effectively deaf. I had a Dodge pickup in the 80s that had a weird noise. I told them it sounded like one of the rubber mounts on the bed to frame was missing. After 6 months of fighting with them and Dodge and them lying over and over, they fixed it by adding the bed to frame rubber mount bushing that was missing. I could go on but now my blood pressure is too high. Here's a doozy. My son's brand new lifted Ram SLT 2500 4 door 4X4 long bed Cummins 6spd manual with full replacement Ranch Hand bumpers was in for it's 1st oil change. The tech thinking he had left it in neutral was standing beside it, he stuck his right leg in depressed the clutch and started the truck. When he got off the clutch it was in 2nd. It took off across the shop and collided with the frame straightening machine at the other end of the shop doing nearly $10k in damage to his new truck.
