Do you think I can take the car in for a transmission oil change and walk out with them having done the job properly? I can handle them trying to sell me the Brooklyn Bridge but I am asking if they will do a professional job or will they screw it up which will force me to take it to Volvo after to fix it. I am trying to avoid a trip to Ocala and save money on the service but I might be causing myself more problems. What thinkist the TV sages?

I've had this type of transmission oil change from a place SIMILAR to tire choice and it worked out well. The problem is they will try to tell you other things are wrong. Just say thanks for the service but I'll decline anything else. Should be fine.

My DH took his Buick in for a tire rotation before we drove back to NYC for a visit. Nothing else. Well, he was told needed new tires (NOT) and nitrogen in the tires we had (uh, no). Guy who serviced the car said it wouldn't make it up north. DH said the staff was using scare tactics on everyone. We'll go to Pep Boys in Leesburg from now on.

Recently, I limped my golf cart into Tire Choice, in Colony, with a flat tire. They immediately took my cart into the bay and fixed the flat and sent me on my way for FREE!

The flat actually happened close to Walmart on 441. I went there first and they refused to even fix it. The tech reluctantly aired it up, so I could get home.

However, I would NEVER take my car to any Tire store for any service, other than tires. The closest dealer for my car is in Orlando and I always go there for any and all service. If it was not drivable, I'd have it towed there...

You always get what you pay for, in my opinion...

Got tires at Tire Choice for my mother's car this week. They said her brakes were only 10% and she needed other service. I took the car to Michael's auto repair in Fruitland Park. He said the brakes were fine.
