@bettafish541 Dude, the lengths people will go to... I think I'm just going to take my little old crap wagon down to the family owned repair shop I found in the next town over.
Their prices are tons cheaper, they don't tack on unwanted repairs, and when I took my girlfriend to get her brakes looked at, the owner brought us on a tour of the house he built and every cool thing he'd collected in it.
That lasted about an hour. Then he gave me a hug and a discount.
Much better service. Will absolutely return. F**k Midas and all the other little franchises where the staff have absolutely no idea what they're doing, besides robbing you.

@ADR3-N @bettafish541 Now that I think about it, I can confirm the "sabotage"-bit. Like a hundreds decades back, back before I had my driver's license, my mother's car needed a repair every 3 to 4 weeks. Once she changed repair shops: "Magically no more issues for over a year!"
That being said, I _highly_doubt_ ADR3-N will ever grace that particular workshop with her presence again.
