UPDATE #2 Disappointed by the likely truth of the negative stereotype…read more The written mechanic's report (see photo) - that no one reviewed w/ me - said, "RR trailing arm bushing coming apart LR starting to as well". Odd, never heard a sound from the rear as is symptomatic. Went to my usual mechanic for this & another issue. We looked together (as ever) & both bushings are in fine working order. Maybe the mechanic meant a different part? Or someone else's bushings are failing? Research shows women pay ~$5k more than men over the life of their cars. Add the amount men are overcharged & hoodwinked out of, etc.. & that comes to more than a few boat payments. *** UPDATE I was called in the morning, saving me a trip & they refunded my money. I expect remaining vouchers like mine will be honored without challenge through 12/13/24. I appreciate the kind prompt, fair, kind, response greatly, and am reassured all is back to normal @ Kirby Firestone. I like to frequent small local family owned businesses, with the hope they thrive better when not working for THE MAN, and bonus, they often have friendly helpful employees with low turnover who occasionally remember you ;-) I write reviews primarily in hopes of ameliorating the issue and making sure nothing of the sort should happen again. Only as a desperate measure, are my reviews meant to warn others, so at least they don't have to go through what I have. I keep trying to lower my expectations so I'm not disappointed, but I can't seem to get them low enough :-/ *** I have no issue with the mechanics, or with Josh behind the counter, but today, there was a different guy @ the counter. I've been coming here for years w/ oil change coupons & always been satisfied with the service. I even bought oil changes for friends the last time they went on sale. Today, I came in for an oil change and diagnostics- both covered by the voucher (see photo), as seen on their website. Upon my return, I was offered a bill (see photo) that took $25 off an oil change and charged $153.69 for the diagnostic. He said he saved me $ by only charging 1 hour. I expected to pay a $3 oil disposal fee and apparently was also responsible for the cost of the oil filter (reminder: ask their $ and maybe bring one next time). I was told there was ONLY a coupon for $25 off an oil change, despite presenting the voucher for the oil change, tire rotation, full inspection and diagnostic on paper and online, exp. 12/13/24. He then said my 2008 Prius takes 0w30 oil, which is not stock oil and per the fine print is $20 off. I found this surprising because no one has ever mentioned non-stock oil or 0w30 to me in my years of owning this car. He shrugged and bilked me. Upon returning to my car, I thought 0w30, that's VERY odd, and then noticed on the invoice, 5w30 was billed. Back to the counter. Oh, he says he only charged me for 5w30, (so generous). Then why was I charged $24.95 for the oil change (do their oil filters cost $21.95)? He walks me to my car giving me a lesson on different kinds of oil, as I'm telling him, the owner's manual says to use 5w30, he's still talking about viscosity and lighter vs. darker color. Under the hood he goes, comes out with the dipstick, shows it to me, yep, looks darker than 0w30, and hey, btw they write RIGHT ON the OIL CAP 5W30. He starts to walks back to the building, when I ask, wait, but, if I received stock oil (5w30 is stock, right?) why was I charged for more than the disposal fee and filter for the oil change? I already paid for the oil change voucher, I didn't feel like paying twice. His response: Talk to Josh tomorrow. Sounds GREAT! I know Josh, he's always been helpful. Never had any trouble with coupons with him. So, fingers crossed, I get to invest more time and effort and frustration to try and settle a simple oil change and diagnostic I'm being billed for twice. How many oil changes could have been done in the time I'm spending fixing this SNAFU? Hmm... the guy behind the counter didn't even mention the mechanics's note that the RR trailing arm bushing is coming apart and LR starting as well. OR that the fender distortion was damaging the tire! THAT information actually would have been HELPFUL new info, compared to what he said about the car (explained the diagnostic codes they could do nothing about), especially since I PROVIDED the diagnostic codes & had already both been told what they meant & I researched them. What ELSE WASN'T passed to me from the mechanic?!

Secondly, I paid almost $200 for a diagnostic, far over market value in this area. Thirdly, after bringing my car into the dealership for the service, it became apparent that Firestone had provided me with an inaccurate diagnostic of the issue. After completing service with the dealership, all problems were fixed with my car proving that Firestone had been incorrect with their diagnostic. I tried to get a refund but they would not admit their mistake. Horrible experience, do not come here. Go anywhere else for car troubles.

It wasn't anything different from the other shop, but more than twice the cost of the other shop. I told the lady that they are completely too high and out of line! How can they expect an student to pay this kind of repair bill ? This is an old car that is probably worth less than their repair bill! By the way beware this shop charges for estimates too, the other shop didn't charge us anything! They charged my son $71 dollars for the estimate.

I needed to make sure the car was in good working order both to satisfy the terms of the divorce and for my own peace of mind.
