Travel centers of America TA shop Overcharging on tire repair. Florence Nationwide
Charged 2 flat rate fees on single tire repair. Is normally a flat rate to remove wheel, unmount tire, and remount then reinstall. Had tires repaired previously with multiple nails and was charged the flat fee plus extra time and materials for the extra nail. This TA decided both nails were to be charged as separate flat rate fees. In other words they decided to get paid for the one tire removal, unmounting, remounting, reinstalling TWICE. And charged for each patch and shop fees separately as well. That's 90% of the job, is mere minutes to do second patch. The bill was $160 for patching 2 nail holes on one tire.
