The fix
That is a serious concern and I want to address it directly. Every recommendation we make is based on what we find during the inspection — we document everything and I am happy to walk you through what we found and why we flagged it. Please call us or come in and ask for me personally. I would like to show you exactly what we were looking at.
Fast turnaround on an oil change is something we genuinely take pride in — glad the team made it easy. See you at the next one.
That is not how we should be operating and I am sorry it happened that way. If the scope of work changes, we are supposed to call before we proceed — not surprise you at the register. I would like to understand exactly what happened on your visit. Please reach out directly so we can make this right.
