When we perform an oil change here we also complete a thorough inspection and grease the necessary items while it is on the hoist. This client had been taking the vehicle to a quick lube place for oil changes and they had not greased the ball joints. This resulted in repairs to his truck of over $1500.00!!! While he may have saved a few dollars and a few minutes of his time, total repairs on his truck were much higher than they should have been.
So please remember these points when thinking about doing it yourself or visiting a place that specializes in quick service. Are you truly saving money? Is it worth not taking that extra time to have a professional with years of experience give your vehicle the once over?
Just remember, sometimes that old adage is true - you get what you pay for!
Until Tomorrow.
