I went in to get my oil changed. It was the first trip to the mechanic with my 2001 "new - used" car. After they looked everything over, the mechanic told me the car has not been maintained and that all the fluids need to be changed. - $255.00 worth. I figured he must know what he's talking about. Then he started telling me that my brakes were terrible, really bad. That there is really nothing left to them and that if I don't change them it will be a more serious and costly repair in a short while. I told him I am broke and as it was the fluid change was going on my credit card because I couldn't afford that. He went to "talk" to the manager and came back and told me it would be a good deal at over $600.00! I said I can't afford it right now. He called me "Hun" again and said I really don't want to let this wait. I could probably do just the front now and do the rear a month later. I said I can't do any. He wrote down the price and told me to shop around and that I wouldn't find a cheaper price. If I did find a cheaper price, he would beat it. So I have 3 kids and so naturally I was worried at that point that I was driving my kids around with no brakes. So the next nay i took it over to my local small garage and the guy there told me my brakes are new. He said the fronts are getting low, maybe next oil change I could look at the fronts again. But he said that there's no danger and my brakes are fine. So I ask, was Lube It All taking advantage of a woman who doesn't know about auto repair? That's what I think.
