Tires Plus claims theirs a bend and crack in my wheel...i KNOW i didnt hit a pothole...is it possible for them to have done the dammage and to just blame it on me!?! Can a Tire shops machines crack or bend a wheel?!?!

Is it possible for them to have done the dammage and try to blame it on me??

They were putting new tires on the wheels...so maybe it was that machine?

PLEASE HELP!! I NEED FAST ANWSERS!!

 

didnt you post recently about your wheels being scratched or broken studs?

if you did, then the shop is trying to get around buying you new ones.

anything can happen at any shop. so yes, its possible.

 

i know this wasnt my fault...i know they had to of done it...i donno what to do know!?! whats the legal issues!?! Can i call like the Better Business Bureo place!?! what do i do?

 

its very possible...

when they TRY to mount and balance they scratch em up all over


mine have nickz from the stupid tire place i went to

 

 

its possible... you need to work ot out with them if you have solid proof they did it.. if you dont your screwed!!! you can go to the BBB or even small claims... but you need proof and over 1 rim it aint worth your time and $$$.... work it out... or screw them by directing business else where... but watch out for slandering there name.. they can GET YOU!!!

 

did you take pictures like we asked you to earlier after the initial crap happened?

 

honestly, it's pretty un common for them to do this. I honestly think you just didn't realize the rim got bent. That happens all the time!

 

I agree with ghander. Why would tires plus purposly bend or chip or crack your rim?? That just plan doesn't make sense. If it were some small private shop...maybe. But not a big chain like Tires Plus. They make better money if they don't scam people. I would just tell myself that it got cracked. It happens. How many miles do you have on the rims??

 

Yeah, didn't you say you bought the rims used and refinished them?? They could have had a little bund or crack already that was too small to notice, but when you drove on them it got bigger. Plus, did they even show you the bend/crack?? It might be really small still, and not that big of a deal, but if it's some huge crack, that sucks.

There is realy no way for you to prove that it wasn't there before you took it in. Also, is the crack/bend on the outside? Or is it where the tire covers so you can't see. If it's on the inside, you probably did it yourself without knowing.
