Review: I wanted to reset my oil changes to 5K from 3K to match the tire rotations. I felt that when I made the appointment that I was told that was no problem. However, when the work was completed I was told this was unnecessary as tire wear depended on a number of factors (as if I didn't know) and I felt my request was "blown off". Once I though more about this, I was reminded that I was paying for rotations and never was given a written guarantee on the tires even after asking for one. Most tire outlets give free rotations, etc. as part of their written guarantee. I was also not given an opportunity to choose the oil for the oil change. I figured I would get the usual oil but synthetic oil was installed. Maybe I am behind the times, but my understanding is that for higher mileage engines, more expensive synthetic oil is inappropriate. Although it wasn't that great of an expense, it would definitely for me to be a matter to be discussed. I've had good mechanical and body shop work done on my Subaru at Ron's, but I am starting to feel gouged and that I made a really bad decision buying tires without a guarantee that met my shop employee elevated expectations. I am approaching 70 years old and have a history of doing most of my own vehicle repairs.
