You know, that pisses me off. Shops are not ****in Burger King or McDonalds.
You can always say "no thank you" when there is suggested service. recomended to your car. They arent always looking for the extra buck, its just business.
90% of the people that go to get thier vehicles service have no idea wtf to do. Key goes in the hole, and they turn it. If there is a light, noise, or a combo of both, they just go get it fixed. People dont follow service scheduals, and its these service writers as professionals are here to inform you of what your vehicle needs to last longer.
