⚠️ Beware Overlap Labor

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

As noted, shops may push replacing more tires than necessary (e.g. saying you need all 4 when only 1-2 are worn or damaged - except AWD where all 4 similar is important); upselling a more expensive brand or model when a mid-range tire would be safe and sufficient; adding expensive road hazard warranties, valve stems, TPMS kits, etc., on top without clearly asking. Also watch for “nitrogen fill” upsell.
