MIchelin Tire Recall Replacement Question
When you had the tires replaced under the recall did the tire shop charge you for anything ? IE mount balance etc ?
Forum Discussion
Wanted to hear what others have paid or NOT paid before I posted.
The previous owner had the recalled tires on his MH.
So the Tire shop instead of putting on 6 new Michelin's , they put on BFG Commercial T/A All Season 2's (maybe they were out of the Michelins ??)
When we looked at it to buy , he made the comment about having the tires just replaced under the recall.
When I mentioned they were BFG instead of the Michelin's he didn't have a clue nor realized it either.
That tells me the tire shop didn't inform him one way or the other.
On top of that the tire DOT dates were anywhere from 13 to 18 months old on these "new" tires.. 0316 and 5015 on the two front ones that I could see, the rears were flipped in so they didn't have the dates on that side of them.
After buying the MH from him I was going through the paperwork , found the receipt on the tires.
They charged him :
6 State required Environmental Fee 6 @$1.75 = $10.50
6 Adjustment/Bal 6 @ $16.00 = 96.00
6 Certificates (road hazard ) 6 @ $23.60 = $141.60
So he paid $248.10 out the door .
I could see (maybe) buying the certs (road hazard) for the $141.60
But not the other , that should have fallen on Michelin ...
