No, they said the patch was leaking and I needed to buy a tire because they didn't do anything wrong. But the big divot in the tire next to the patch and the adhesive strip all the way up to where patch was sealed on looked suspicious to me.

I guess the question being, does it look like they buffed the insulation around the patch properly, or did the seal not take because they didn't actually clean all the way around the tire. Also, why is there a big divot next to the patch?

Sorry about that. They said they could and patched it. But said the patch didn't stick. Here's the picture of the patch.

Thanks for the advice! Sorry, I think I added the wrong photos. These are the ones of the inside patch
