The staff is very friendly, but seems like they must ALL make commission on whatever they sell you. I took my 2016 Rav4 in for the 30,000 mile check three days ago. There were several things that rubbed me the wrong way initially dealing with the staff, in spite of their friendliness, but I let them slide at first.
The biggest issue, that I still almost can't believe and the reason I am writing this review, was the flat out lies they told me. I went in thinking I just needed an oil change. When I was in the waiting room, one of the service staff came out and told me I also needed new brakes and rotors. The brakes I wasn't surprised by, but the rotors... at 30,015 miles? I'm a girl in there by myself, so I'm low hanging fruit, but I work at an ATV company and try to learn from our mechanics when I have time. The L&S staff told me that my rotors were rusted through and needed to be replaced. I thought that sounded suspicious (and confirmed online that rotors on that vehicle should last between 30,000 miles and 70,000) so I asked to see a picture of the rotors. I was then provided with the blurriest and lowest quality pictures they could have taken. I asked for another one, and this time they sent me a slightly clearer one, but you could clearly see they weren't even close to "rusted through". When I pressed the staff, they said "well, they're really grooved and will wear your brakes unevenly". They showed me another blurry picture and tried to justify their story. When I asked why they couldn't just turn the rotors (thanks work mechanic lessons!) instead of replacing them if they were in fact that grooved, they literally stuttered, looked at each other, and looked uncomfortable. Oh, hey (insert slightly snarky wave), I may be a younger girl in there by myself, but I know a bit more than I look like I would. They came up with yet another story when I kept pressing them about it. I finally called the mechanic from my company and told him what was going on. He told me there was no way my rotors should need to be replaced yet based on how and where I drive. I told the L&S staff I didn't want them to do anything else to my car beyond the oil change they had already done.
As I was paying for my oil change and 30,000 mile check, they were all a little weird and had the look of being in the principal's office in school.
I took my car to our local mechanic yesterday. They told me my rotors are in perfect shape- they didn't even turn them because they were completely fine. They literally used the word "perfect".
It's one thing for a dealership or mechanic shop to suggest something needs to be fixed when it's not immediate. It's another thing to just blatantly lie to someone they deem as an easy target to get more money out of them. As I was leaving, an older gentleman with a cane came in. I hope they were more honest with him than they were with me. A lot of us are hurting financially right now. Don't be dishonest with your customers to help your business succeed. Incredibly disappointing as a business and as people.
Also, sidenote, my local mechanic replaced my brakes for literally half the cost L&S quoted me.
