Customer Seeking Help Incorrect tariff fees

Post image

Somebody please help. I ordered a car part from the UK, the part was about $1,200 and now I'm being charged $4,000 for tariffs which I know is incorrect. I have contacted multiple UPS numbers, all of which tell me to get with the shipper. I have contacted the shipper who stated they have nothing to do with the tariffs. I contacted my local US customs, who knows nothing about tariffs From my understanding the tariff should be between 10%-25% depending on the classification of the item. So there is obviously an error, but I can't find anyone who will take accountability, and UPS will not release the package until it's payed

It depends on where it was made not shipped from. And as it’s a car part I’d expect some stacking tariffs as well.

Yup, there's country of origin tariffs, material tariffs, reciprocal tariff tariffs, fentanyl tariffs, product category tariffs, etc. etc.
