Why is it so hard to get trustworthy vehicle service???<br /><br />I do my maintenance myself, except rotating tires on my F-150 since the tires on it have lifetime rotate/balance. I carried it in for JUST a rotate/balance this am. Got a call this afternoon that the rotate/balance was done, but they had a list of items "I should have them perform". Grrrrr.... I didn't want a stinking inspection to see what services they wanted to sell, just what I brought it in for.<br /><br />-They determined my belt needed changing --Sorry, I guess they didn't notice that the one on there is almost brand new, and was not one of the cheapo ones. I checked afterwards, yup, still looks almost new.<br /><br />-Needs oil change -- No it doesn't. I'm at 2000 miles on full synthetics. The oil isn't even dark yet....<br /><br />-Battery needs service -- not even going there<br /><br /><br />I popped the hood before I drove off to look. they claimed to have checked the air filter. The case is dusty as all get out and had no fingerprints. No way to check it without leaving prints in teh dust.<br /><br />Ticket says vehicle arrived with 25psi in all 4 tires. Bull. I checked that they were at 45 last time I filled up (spec for 45-50). The shop lowered them to 33...... They did the same when they installed them.<br /><br />To add more insult, the driver seat was all out of whack. Was it necessary to change every setting on it to drive 10 yards across teh parking lt and back!!!<br /><br /><br />I'll stop ranting now..... Look like I need to find another tire shop. And people wonder why I don't carry my vehicles to be serviced, much less my boats......
