Subject: RE: BS: In Search of an Honest Mechanic
I got an oil change at one of those Midas Muffler shops, the kind that advertise $14.00 oil changes? He found a leaking seal in the rear wheel of my Lincoln Town Car. Wanted $450.00 to fix it. I took it to my brother who is a mechanic, and he fixed it for under $50.00. Never ask a barber if you need a haircut. Next time I went in, he told me he couldn't make it on oil changes, and would prefer that I go elsewhere. These people must find trouble to make a living. The crooks will create problems if there are none.
