Gas prices in the state expected to rise as the situation escalates in Ukraine following the Russian invasion. In the newest installment of her consumer protection series, Attorney General Dana Nessel is giving consumers tips on recognizing price gouging with gasoline.

“These days, price swings of 30 or 40 cents a gallon aren’t unusual, but when a gas station charges a price way above the price at similar gas stations, that could be gas gouging.”

The video also explains Michigan gas stations sell the correct quality and quantity of gas most of the time, but when a station does try to illegally take advantage of drivers, her office is there to stop them. You can file a gasoline price gouging complaint online or by calling the Attorney Generals Consumer Protection Team at 877-765-8388.
