I was very disappointed that I was charged for this service as I thought it was the 2nd one that was supposed to be included with the purchase of my car! Apparently, they counted a 30 day fluid check one month after I took delivery as the first one! Very frustrating!

It is always good to have car serviced and the work needed is communicated before it is done. Matt Torres has been my service advisor for 8 years and always does a great job.

They wanted $686.53 to mount and balance 2 tires despite the fact that the $655.55 i paid for premium service included tire balance and rotation. Either way, that price to mount and balance 2 tires is criminal. They also qanted $790 for transmission service on my Lexus GX 460. I was a little turned off by the high price of service last time but now I'm convinced they are not only over charging but also recommending unnecessary services. Hiding this unethical behaviour behind "well those are dealership prices" doesn’t cut it for me. Won't be going there again
