The California Tire Fee has been around since I was in high school, and it has not changed much: it’s still $1.75 per new tire (up from $1.00) and still needs to be remitted to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration (CDTFA) – which was formerly the Board of Equalization. What has changed, and will continue to change, is the litigious setting in the automotive industry. It seems like what plaintiffs’ attorneys and state agencies want to focus on changes every cycle. One year it’s hidden finance changes, another year it’s deceptive advertising practices, and another year it’s overcharging for government fees (such is the world of compliance I suppose). The California Tire Fee, though seemingly straightforward, is an area that can be easily mishandled and a mistake even easier to spot for any plaintiff’s attorney. Since 2012 (thanks to Assembly Bill 238), the condition sale contract cannot be made unenforceable (i.
e., contract rescission) solely for a violation of provisions requiring the disclosure of certain fees paid to public officials. However, the mantra in compliance has always been that the mightiest of ships can be sunk by the smallest of leaks. The attorney of a disgruntled customer only needs to find a way into the deal jacket and the tire fee can be that way in. With so much potentially riding this small and confusing fee, we’re putting together a quick review of the California Tire Fee and how it should be charged.
This fee is imposed on California consumers (but is collected and remitted by you, the dealer) for each new tire purchased. The funds are used to promote activities and develop technologies for tire recycling, and by the California Air Resources Board for air pollution control and prevention.
Generally, the CA Tire Fee should be collected whenever a new vehicle is sold at retail. However, the somewhat straightforward fee becomes murky when different situations are involved.
Let’s take a look at some of them.
New Vehicle Sale (or Lease)
The CA Tire Fee should be charged for every new tire that’s sold on the vehicle. At the very least, this itemized fee should amount to $7.00 (at $1.75 per new tire for four tires). Be aware that some DMS systems are automatically programmed to put in $8.75 for five new tires (to include the fifth spare tire). Nowadays, many new vehicles are sold with only four new tires because they are either run-flats that do not have a tire in the trunk or carry an inflation system rather than a fifth spare wheel. We recommend entering this amount manually for every transaction so that you can verify how many new tires are sold on the vehicle. Accidentally overcharge the customer for this fee? Refund the amount immediately, and with interest, if possible.
Used Vehicle Sale
The CA Tire Fee should only be charged on the retail sale of a used vehicle if both of these elements are fulfilled: 1) new tires that were replaced on the used vehicle (including any spare tire) and 2) the dealer did not pay the CA Tire Fee to a retail tire center when purchasing the tires.
Out-of-State Transactions
The CA Tire Fee should not be collected if the vehicle is delivered outside of California. However, the CA Tire Fee will apply if the buyer takes possession of the new tires in California. To think of it in another way, if California sales tax does not apply to the out-of-state transaction then the tire fee may not apply either. For a more comprehensive discussion on out of state transactions, please refer to the article “What’s hot on the Hotline? Out-of-State Transactions” in our October 2018 issue of Transmission.
Sales to American Indians
The CA Tire Fee should not be collected if the sale to American Indians occurred on Indian reservations.
Demonstrators
When the vehicle is entered as a demonstrator, the dealer should self-report and remit to the CDTFA the appropriate tire fee for four tires “on the ground.” When the vehicle is eventually retailed, the dealer should only collect the applicable CA Tire Fee for the one unused spare tire, if any.

Rough bully Charlie Sheen managed to keep his diagnosis a secret for a long time, until the editor of the tabloid National Enquirer launched a high-profile investigation. THR is the first to publish a story told by Dylan Howard that seems too crazy to be true.
The call was made in early September 2014.
As editor-in-chief of the National Enquirer and RadarOnline, I'm used to my work annoying celebrities. Sometimes they become furious, turn to their managers for help, threaten litigation, and then hypocritically deny everything. But this was a different case. nine0005
When I picked up the phone, I heard an annoyed voice: “Listen, you idiot, do you really want to do this?” I immediately recognized that hoarse, angry voice. It was Charlie Sheen , a man with whom we had been doing business for over three years. They began even before his scandalous departure from the series "Two and a Half Men" , and he was my constant and inexhaustible source of information.
What could have happened? The last time we spoke in a friendly way. Now he was yelling, breathless with anger, “You bastard. Are you sitting in your office and thinking that you can insult me? Damn sh****! I'm waiting for you at my house today." nine0005
My brain was on fire! I couldn't remember the last time we wrote about Sheen.
"What material? I asked. “I have no idea what you mean.” “You bastard,” he continued to yell at the other end of the line. - How dare you? One more story, bro, and you'll regret it!" And hung up.
I still did not understand what could have angered him so much - it turned out to be a harmless note with a comment from a porn star, where doubts were expressed about the long-term relationship of the actor with his former mistress. But my intuition told me that there was more to it. nine0005
I have been following Charlie's adventures for many years. And they have always been associated with a lot of money, corruption, violence, lies and threats, and it lasted so long that it changed both his and my life forever.
14 months after that phone call, the Enquirer hit the shelves with the startling news: Sheen has HIV. Moreover, he had known about his diagnosis for four years. His wild lifestyle meant promiscuity: models, prostitutes, porn actresses, and this is always a huge health risk.
nine0005
Hollywood hothead Charlie came to my attention in October 2010. After working for Australian publications and the New York office of Reuters, I headed the entertainment site RadarOnline. Sheen's exploits have long been the talk of all the world's media. The star of the show "Two and a Half Men", , he was the highest paid TV actor in the world, and his parties and cases of domestic violence became the property of the paparazzi.
For example, he spent one Christmas in a Colorado state prison for beating his third wife Brooke Mueller. Charlie was charged with second-degree assault, menacing and disorderly conduct, and this was not the first time. In 1997, his former lover Brittany Ashland sued for systematic beatings. The second wife also got - Denise Richards .
In 2006, during the divorce proceedings, the actress spoke of Sheen as a mentally unstable person, prone to violence, addicted to pornography and gambling.
Now I had to be part of this story. One of my sources got hold of the star number, and soon I had a great opportunity to use it. nine0005
On October 26, instead of spending time with his two daughters at the New York's Plaza Hotel, Charlie went all out again and ended up at a party with porn actress Christina Walsh. At some point, he discovered that he had lost an expensive watch, and accused a new acquaintance of stealing. In a rage, the actor began to destroy everything around and, while Walsh was hiding in the toilet, he smashed the entire room, causing, as it turned out, $ 170,000 in damage to the hotel. The police who arrived offered a choice: either go to the hospital for examination, or to the station. He chose the former because the latter would mean prison for him. And after the story went around town thanks to my articles, Shin texted me, “Boy, I’m fine. No need to make an elephant out of a fly. I know what the problem is, but I don't want to discuss it.
" His manager claimed that there was no alcohol or drugs and that the actor's "allergic reaction to certain medications" was to blame. nine0005
In February, we corresponded with Charlie, he then rested in the Bahamas with Brooke and two "goddesses" - porn actresses Bree Olson and Natalie Kenley . I wrote to him that Warner Bros. decided to abandon the filming of the series "Two and a Half Men" and terminate the contract with him. They had evidence that Shin was again taking drugs, in particular crack and cocaine.
This made him furious. “Come over here and check my urine. Only cowards feed on lies,” he wrote to me. I took this message calmly: “You are 45, it's time to behave accordingly. It's not a bluff. We are ready to come to you anywhere and make a report. Prove it's a lie." He replied instantly: “We agreed, if you sign an agreement, that you will drink urine when you are sure that it is clean. And I'll take it on camera. Damn you.
What do you think of yourself? nine0005
So on February 28, 2011, I ended up at Sheen's luxurious mansion, where I was going to be interviewed and personally present during a drug test. Home analysis of urine and blood was carried out by certified laboratory technicians under the decision of the California court and was supposed to detect the presence in the body of marijuana, cocaine, opium, amphetamines and alcohol.
The owner of the house greeted me with a big hug. “And you have balls, boy,” Charlie said. — Let the skeptics wash their faces. Let's show them." The test was negative. On the same day, I appeared on Good Morning America with the results in hand and the statement: "This is a big victory for Charlie Sheen." Later I had to change my mind. nine0005
Charlie Sheen and Dylan Howard in 2011
Over the next month, I became a regular visitor to the mansion and entered the actor's entourage, which was not a pleasant one: 's trusted lieutenant Rick , 's manager Mark Berg, his "goddesses" and a whole bunch of sycophants, servants and hangers-on.
One night, Shin called asking to come. “The cops are here, they are taking the children,” he shouted in a panic. Brooke Mueller managed to get a court order forbidding Charlie from communicating with the twins. I advised him to film everything on camera. That same night, he showed me the incriminating pictures of Brooke. Shin left his phone, and he went to party with his girlfriends. nine0005
I was sitting in my office, surrounded by millions of dollars worth of baseball memorabilia, trying to download photos to my device. His phone was filled with candid pictures of girls ... and several photos of Hayden Panettiere (actress, TV series "Heroes"; for seven years as a common-law wife Wladimir Klitschko , the couple has a 1.5-year-old daughter. - THR).
I was surprised by the trust placed in me. A well-known brawler fired his longtime press agent, and now I was his mouthpiece to relay information to the world. Every story of crazy antics that I published only reinforced the image he created by himself.
nine0005
On another occasion, he invited me to watch a now-infamous TV interview in which he stated, “I am addicted to drugs. It's called Charlie Sheen. You can't get it anywhere, because if you try it, you'll die. Your face will melt and your kids will whimper over your exploding body."
He suddenly insisted on another test: "We have to do it now." During the commercial break, Shin dragged me to the toilet, handed me an empty water bottle and made me hold it. There was an analysis kit on the shelf. He was clean again. However, I didn't like being part of Charlie's world because it was pure manipulation. But what will happen if he makes public what he so wanted to hide? nine0005
I started an undercover investigation. If the suspicions are correct, then it will be like a bolt from the blue - hundreds, perhaps thousands of lovers of a promiscuous reveler may also become infected.
It quickly became clear that Shin's sexual appetite was not limited to wives, porn stars, prostitutes, and.
.. women in general. The investigation showed that the incident at Christmas when Charlie held a knife to Brooke's throat was not an ordinary quarrel. I came across her correspondence with her lover, and it turned out that Shin had an intimate relationship with the same person at the same time. nine0005
Müller had photos and videos of their meetings. Her motive? Blackmail. Brooke threatened to release the materials unless Charlie agreed to break the prenuptial agreement. Correspondence between the ex-wife of the movie star and their mutual lover proved that Muller was afraid of contracting the immunodeficiency virus. “Please be honest,” she writes. “Do you have HIV or hepatitis?” Shin denied it, but she insisted, “When was the last time you got tested? Are you 100% sure you don't have anything?"
In July 2014, we received the most convincing evidence at that time - financial reports with information about payments to former lovers for silence. A month later, we were lucky again - Charlie's former dealer not only announced the actor's illness, but also swore that he had witnessed his unprotected sexual intercourse with several partners, among whom was the dealer's girlfriend.
nine0005
When Shin learned that she knew about his illness, he took out his checkbook. “Charlie bought her a house and paid for her silence,” the source said. - Now this woman is married, the family lives at the expense of Shin. There are a bunch of girls who also get checks regularly and keep his secret."
The further the investigation progressed, the clearer it became: Charlie used a financial gag every time he needed to shut the mouths of former mistresses and lovers. He paid some, he intimidated others. nine0005
Each subsequent discovery scared me even more. For example, we learned that Shin was not only friends with a convicted child sexual abuser, but also rehearsed his dialogues with him in the series Anger Management. When the producers found out about this, they tried to somehow influence Charlie, but he threatened to leave the project if his friend was not allowed on the set.
One of my informants confirmed what I had already heard from others: Sheen contracted HIV from a transgender lover in 2011, but still continued to practice unprotected sex.
"Charlie doesn't care if he lives or dies," the source said. It is curious that the actor himself claimed that he did not know under what circumstances he picked up the virus. nine0005
We later obtained Charlie's financial statements for 2013, which, among other things, contained an expense item of $1.6 million for "friendly entertainment" (as he called his spending on prostitutes), payments for children to ex-wives of $55 thousand per month and payment of $396,000 to the mysterious Miss B.
Even more ominous were the details of the non-disclosure agreement signed by all of his sexual partners. Violation of privacy threatened them with legal consequences: a fine of $ 100,000 for disclosing "confidential information" to friends, family members or journalists, publications on social networks. nine0005
In February 2014, Sheen got engaged to fellow porn star Brett Rossi. The couple separated in October, and in November the woman was hospitalized after a suicide attempt.
I recorded my conversation with a close friend of Charlie's: "I often saw her cry," he said. She feared for her life all the time. Shin threatened her when she was pregnant. He promised to drive her out into the street without money if she decides to keep the child. He also showed me pictures of Rossi, which showed her bruises and torn clothes. nine0005
The actor's former assistant confirmed his penchant for cruelty and violence. “Once we were talking about weapons. Charlie said, "I bet you don't have guns like mine." He's crazy - he has a safe with at least 15 guns in it."
Another detail of the gloomy picture. His ex-girlfriend Bree Olson spoke about the actor's peculiar preferences: he used lamb skin condoms, which, as you know, do not protect against sexually transmitted diseases. Tranny Pornstar Megan Chevalier revealed that in 1997 she and several friends were hired by an actor to participate in an orgy. Another trans claimed that Sheen paid her $20,000 for sex.
As is always done in situations like this, the reporters alerted the Sheen team to the release of the story. The reaction, of course, was extremely negative. The lawyers of the star said that all this is a lie, and we will suffer "astronomical losses" if we publish this "slander".
But the evidence we collected over two and a half years was irrefutable. In order to test the reaction, we used an old tabloid trick: in October 2015, they printed a story about a “bad boy from Hollywood with a terrible diagnosis” without mentioning names. nine0005
The reception worked. I got a call from a man on Charlie's team asking if we'd give a name. We replied that we were going to print the whole story in the near future.
On November 12, 2015, Sheen's people began negotiations with NBC for an interview. The Today program announced on Twitter that Charlie Sheen will be the guest on the next broadcast. A few minutes later we published the article. The National Enquirer first described the immoral lifestyle that the actor led.
Every word in the material was pure truth. nine0005
You know what happened next. The sensational news spread all over the world. Charlie confirmed his diagnosis on the air, but it was clear that he did this not because the truth was important to him - he was only worried about his own future.
For several months after publication, I was forced to think about my own safety. I was warned that Shin did not threaten in vain. So why did we decide to publish this? It's simple: in this story, the health of hundreds of people outweighed the right to privacy. nine0005
_______________________________________________________________
THR Russia translated the story, I didn't add or cut anything. What do you think? It seems to me personally that this is an illustration not only of Sheen's lifestyle, but also of tabloids, and at the same time a frequent phenomenon - cooperation between some celebrities and the yellow press, and here someone will outrage someone, as they say))
Now Charlie seems to be determined to make a reality show about his life with the disease.
The demons in his head are probably even cooler than his father's. But talented people...
And the comrade author, with his "fear for life", honestly, made me laugh somehow. Although, of course, who could have thought of O. J. Simpson at one time. But I also don’t believe in the honor of journalism, the protection of people. Milking a data cow under the name of Charlie Sheen was cool, first from an ally, and then from a journalistic investigation and the harsh truth about the disease.
El The Volkswagen Caddy is one of the most reputable manufacturers in its segment. His arrival ended the hegemony enjoyed by Citroën Berlingo and Renault Kangoo.
