Well I don’t know exactly if it is one just yet…
Do you guys think I could get Triple A to replace ALL four of my tires in one service request?
For those who don’t know, Triple AAA is an American company that offers 24/7 emergency roadside assistance. If your car battery dies, if you need a tow, etc.- you’d ring em up; they’ll come to you.
Ive had them change a popped tire in the past but never thought to ask them to do all four… especially when they’re still in drivable conditions. I would like to have them replaced with some new snow tires I purchased online (It was a good deal!) for the winter.
Technically it would be for free, no? Minus the initial membership fee (they give you four “free” service calls before you have to start paying out of pocket.)
Is this an ethical loophole in this system??
First thing that’s gonna happen is the battery tech they would probably send out is gonna call dispatch and tell them why they’re leaving your dumb ass on the side of the road, and provided you do actually have a flat tire then you’re gonna wait for a tow truck to pick your ass up, and dispatch WILL intentionally send drivers to other calls first to make you wait as long as possible because nobody wants to deal with the idiot who thinks they mount and balance tires on the side of the freeway. And all the drivers are going to be making jokes about it for months to come.
