Nothing taken, went through front area of cab, glove box, console, didn't find anything. Smells like an empty beer can bin now, and cheap wine. if I find evidence of a hobo sex party once I get home I'm gonna lose it lol.
I bet your tire guy hates you with that liquid in your tires when it is time for new tires
Why would that be?
The Goodyear dealer that first used it had no issues.
I could see if perhaps I didn't let a tire tech know in advance to be aware of it. But no different then beads.
I hope the insurance does a proper cleaning and sterilization.
Never used insurance. Couldn't of completed replacement and ready to drive in the limited time I had. Deductible and replacement cost are very close anyway.

When you use the liquid do you add it in addition to the weights on the wheels or do you remove all weights?
Some people use anti freeze. Cheaper, and doesn't freeze at night or boil when the tire is running hot. But with only a 15 degree bead taper on 19.5" rims, I wouldn't use it. The 5 degree bead taper of 16" and 17" rims is probably more tolerant to the potential lubrication that could cause bead slippage.
Tire shops don't use lead anymore in wheel weights on the west coast. Not sure what the weights are made of these days, but it takes more of them to achieve the same weight. I eschew weights altogether and run Centramatic Dynamic Balancers on my dually, but there is a good argument in favor of balancing media inside the tire itself... which distributes over a longer radius than either wheel weights or a captive media balancer on a disc, making less net weight work more efficiently.

That's why I always use McGard tailgate locks on my trucks. Definitely will not stop them if they have a lot of time, but will if it is just a ****** and grab.
