"If the old tire wasn't going flat then the only other cause has to be either the tire or valve stem."

One more possibility, the tire shop damaged the rim.

If they won't fix it, I would ask them to pay a "real" shop to fix it.

Most of the time they don't want the bad publicity.

Only tire dealer I've ever had refuse to fix one was a Michelin dealer.

I left the defective tire hanging on the outside wall of the Firestone dealer

across the street as a customer endorsed "advertisement" for how good

Michelin's warranty is. Tire was 8 weeks old with about a 1000 miles on it.

Firestone was happy to have it. They had quite a display.
