Beware of technicians weilding an impact wrench. My friend's wheel studs were sheared off--due to the use of the impact wrench--on a visit to NTB. Cost was tried to be put on us, but we stuck to our guns. I can't wait 'til the manager reads this report.
Service occurs at a rate ...

The Old Bait and Switch
Last summer I was baited with an ad "4 tires 13 inch for $80.00" The add also listed 14 inch for $100.00 or 15 inch for $120.00. My wife's car needed 2 new tires so I thought that I would just buy 4. After taking the car to Tire-Rama I found they did not have those 13 inch tires. Th...
