Tread Quarters Discount Tire and auto service center a bait and switch complaint advertising one price to pressure female customers into a higher priced oil change Newport News Virginia
I made an appointment to have my oil changed 07/17/2018 at noon today for the advertised price of 14.99 and when I got there to get the oil change the manager badgered me until I agreed to a higher priced oil change of 34.99, 20.00 more than advertised on top of trying to sell me an additional 300.00 in un-nessary repairs which I refused flat out. I also noticed that other females who came in for the same oil change only for the same manager named Steven Jahn to push other women into the higher priced oil change charging 20.00 more than adveritsed which the advertised price is even on their website as 14.99. The last time I looked they use to call this bait and switch which is also if I remember correctly is fraud but auto service centers do this across this country and target females becasue we are easy marks and this is exactly what I beleive they pulled on me. It would be nice to see them exposed for this becasue if I am a target along with many other females we are getting ripped off simply becasue we are women and they know a lot of us do not service our own cars.
