Which of the following statements is not true about proper tire care?

If you see a wear bar across the width of the tread while facing it, it's time to replace the tire.

Properly-inflated tires are critical to vehicle control and good gas mileage.

Tire tread depth can only be checked by a properly-trained tire expert.

Under-inflated tires experience uneven friction and heat buildup, which can lead to blowouts.

The answer is C because anyone can check the tire depth using a penny.

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. The statement "Tire tread depth can only be checked by a properly-trained tire expert" is not true for tire care. Even the owner can easily determine this. Hope this answers the question.
