We are AAA members so I got into their site and their #1 person in our area is Goodwrench situated in front of Home Depot and if you are a AAA member the diagnostic process is free. I know what you mean about upselling services, but I told him quite honestly that I was there because I did not know whether to keep or replace the car. You get a computer print out of what is wrong with the car and it would be impossible for him to make the car do something to appear that there is a problem because it is hooked up to a computer. The print out tells me what needs to be done now and what can wait.
I did buy the tires from him, on the spot, and I will go back for a battery from them because their guarantee is very good. He was definitely a good salesman, but it was obvious the tires need to be done and it was obvious the battery was in trouble because you get a read out of how charged etc. it is. I am annoyed because the Battery was new last June - so tomorrow I'll be on the phone with the battery people ...................
Bottom line - at some point you have to trust someone! I am kind of a tough old bird and I am difficult to con.
