“Dealer” refers to service centers that specialize in one or two makes and sell those vehicles. As a franchise dealer:
They use top-quality manufacturer-recommended or “official” parts
Parts usually come with a manufacturer's warranty - ask the dealer about this as details may vary
They have the highest level of training and knowledge, and their labor rates may reflect this
Total Estimate:
Parts
$18 - $22
Labor
$28 - $34
“Independent” refers to a service center that services multiple makes instead of specializing. In addition:
They don't sell vehicles
Because they can use non-official or aftermarket parts, their pricing might seem lower
Independents tend to be generalists with a broad level of knowledge and training on many vehicles
Price includes parts and labor
About Tire Patch
A flat tire doesn’t necessarily mean that the tire needs replacement. Patching and plugging kits can fix holes in tires caused by small sharp objects like nails and screws. Patching the tire uses an internal patch to cover the opening and requires the tire to be removed from the rim. A plug fixes a hole externally, so in some cases, the tire doesn’t need to be taken off.
