⚠️ Beware Overlap Labor

Dishonest shops often double-dip labor when billing multiple Op Codes. For example, if parts must be removed to access TPMS Sensor Replacement, they shouldn't bill full Book Time for both codes.

When one TPMS battery dies (sensor failure), some shops push to replace all four ($$$) - not necessary if others are still fine (batteries last ~7-10 years). Upselling expensive OEM sensors vs aftermarket (aftermarket typically fine and cheaper); charging additional for programming each sensor without telling upfront.
