1999 Vauxhall Vectra

Hello , new here but got a question, just had two new tyres for my car and tracking done, but was told that I needed to have new inner and outer track rod ends fitted. Didn't book it up there and then and am wondering whether it is safe to continue using the car until I have it done, and what damage may be caused by doing so, Garage didn't say not to use it or that it was dangerous so I'm assuming it is safe. Advice would be appreciated. Thanks

the longer you wait .. the more damage you will do to the new tyres and they will need replacing again sooner !!
