The special Veterans Day weekend free car care check includes an inspection of tires, brakes, alignment, battery, wiper blades, and shock and struts. They can also receive free tire installation with any tire purchase during the promotional period, a value of at least $25 per tire installed. Active and retired military service members with valid military ID can begin scheduling appointments Nov. 8 – 11 and redeem service through Nov. 16.

"As a military veteran and Goodyear associate, I'm proud to be part of a company that places an emphasis on supporting our military community," said Devin Abbey, Goodyear Auto Service store manager.

Goodyear is honored to be recognized as one of the top military-friendly employers in the nation with a long history of providing career opportunities and a supportive environment.
