Yeah The Jiffy Lubes are crooked down here to, my mom took her expedition there and spent over $250 on ancilliary services and when i checked all the stuff they "replaced" nothing had been done. They denied all of it and now i can't go back there haha
The only people that work on my truck I know pretty well, even the GM tech at the dealership

I do all my own work that I can. Didn't mount my last set of tires cause I didn't have the equip. I was watching through the window at a local tire store and took my r/r straight from the machine to the truck without balancing it!!! Told the girl at the counter and made them take it back off and balance it properly while I watched!!! Folks try to get over on people who don't know any better and thats sad. When I worked as a tech I treated every job like it was mine and the person who's car it was would check to make sure the work was done correctly. To this day even though I've chosen another career people bring me stuff to work on cause they know I will do it right! I make good money off the work I do because I'm trusted by those I choose to do work for.
