I asked why they removed the tires to do an oil change, and what was the service man doing under the rear of the car. I was told they perform a 'vehicle inspection' on all the car's systems. I said I only wanted an oil change, not a dis-assembly of the car, and an oil change should 10-20 minutes, not over an hour. After an hour and 10 minutes the 'service man' came and out and in a dire voice stated that my front tires were 'almost' worn out and 'maybe' I should have an alignment (the car has 22000 miles). I said I only wanted an oil change.
Oh, and while I was waiting in the customer area, EVERY customer waiting was approached and told they should have work done that they did not come in for, ie. air filters, windshield wipers, etc..
What a scam they are running! Imagine elderly customers who may be scared into spending money for unnecessary work. Beware if you go there. You now know what to expect.

I take my car to Delta Auto Center in Fruitland Park - right across the street from BillBryan. Sam is the owner and he is great. Ask for an oil change - and you get an oil change. He is also VERY caring and does not try to gouge men or WOMEN - and I think that is important! Been doing business with him for several years and have referred a lot of people to him - they all have been very satisfied. Call him at 315-9595 - just tell him Monica referred you. You certainly won't be sorry and no, I don't get anything for the referral. He's just a good, dependable guy.
