Don't expect help from Wal*Mart

I bought a 2 wheeled electric scooter from Walmart and within a short time the rear tire wore out.  ( I wont tell you which country it came from)  You would expect to go  where you bought the merchandise for parts.  But NO, not Walmart.  They flat out told me they don't sell parts.  Or even have a relationship with the store they sold it from. So to fix it I had to go to the open market and pay double for another rag made in the un-named country.  Besides the scooter is dangerous because it does not have disc brakes.  These rim brakes cant handle the weight properly so you must plan ahead when you want to stop before running into the side or front of a car for instance.  When I bought it from Walmart I just assumed it had disc brakes.  This piece of rag is going to cost almost 40 bucks for a small tire and tube. I learned my lesson about Walmart. Have a nice day.
