When "Patrick" finally came out, he seemed very confused about me requesting to have my TireRack.com tires installed. I had called ahead to ensure the tires were in the store. Eventually, he figured out "something or other" mumbled something I didn't understand and asked for my keys. I watched the entire service. They have large windows in the waiting area where you can clearly see the entire service bay, and they changed the tires within easy view of my location. I watched carefully, because I assumed that the TPMS service was bull***t, and that they wouldn't actually do anything. Glad I did. I saw the "technician" deflate all 4 tires, put them on the mounting machine, remove the old rubber and put on the new. They never did ANYTHING with the TPMS sensors on the wheels. Old tire off, new tire on ... nothing in between. To their credit, when I confronted them with this information, they called the "technician" over and asked if he did the TPMS service and he honestly answered that he had not "because nobody gave him the kit". I'm assuming if this is something they routinely charge, this is a service they should be routinely performing ... just as changing 4 valve-stems used to be. I am quite sure this is "business as usual", and they are routinely ripping people off $7.00 per tire for a service they never perform, and most folks are none-the-wiser. After much hemming and haw-ing and two calls to his boss, the service writer finally figured out how to issue me the $28.69 credit to my credit card.
