  1. No. The receiver is not responsible for paying a courier’s flat tire, roadside assistance, or service call. Those costs are part of the courier company’s operating expenses, not the customer’s—especially not the receiving customer.

    A courier (or their subcontractor) cannot legally withhold a package addressed to you and demand payment for vehicle repairs. Doing so may be considered extortion, breach of contract, or an unfair trade practice, depending on local consumer protection laws.

    If this happens:

    Do not pay the driver directly

    Contact the courier company’s official customer support

    Ask for the demand in writing (most scammers refuse)

    File a complaint with consumer protection authorities if needed

    You are only required to pay pre-agreed shipping fees, customs duties, or taxes—not unexpected repair costs caused by the courier’s vehicle.

    Bottom line:
    A flat tire is the courier’s problem, not the receiver’s. If a driver demands money to release your package, that’s a serious red flag.
