(car came from Hawaii 3 yrs ago) Then the big issue: Russel, Lightning Lube owner said both CV axles were damaged and it was dangerous to drive car or use 4 wheel drive. I had a trip to Seattle scheduled next dau so said fix the axles. Raymond had a hell of a time working till 8:30 PM Sat when he was foiled by a brake line. Went home, and then I remembered LES SCHWAB did all 4 new brakes, calipers, rotors on 10/23/24 costing $2224. Raymond showed me there were not 4 new calipers on the car and we realized perhaps Les Schwab mechanic caused problem. The RF caliper was rusted, old one. The brake line had been misthreaded. I googled " CV axle damaged by brake job and it said that it is a big possibility. I requested the Les Schwab manager come to Lighting Lube and view the brake job, He agreed to pay Lightning Lube to fix the brake job right and said he would bring over a new Caliper for RF. While I was at the Lightening shop another customer had his truck in the shop due to Les Schwab not fixing his truck right! The Les Schwab Manager also agreed to pay for his work to get it done right. If it hadn't been for the great mechanic at Lightning Lube I could have had a huge problem going over the pass with damaged cv axles. The one axle was so bad the boot was torn completely and filled with mud and rocks and fell apart when mechanic removed it. Russel had a loaner car for me. The crew at Lightening Lube is awesome, caring, skilled and efficient. I highly recommend them. (Here's a picture of the 'NEW' caliper Les Shwab charged me for in October 20245. Does this look NEW)

Check engine light was flashing in my truck at the start of my 75 mile commute home. I managed to…read moreget the truck up the hill, and called Ponderay Autocare the following morning. They were pretty stacked, so it was a few days before I could drop it off. In the end, I was quoted about $1,500 to replace the intake manifold, spark plugs and attendant wires. The repair took 24-36 hours to get the truck back, and just in time: It is our only 4wd vehicle and there was a big snow storm on the way. Well, a week later, I'm making the exact same 75 mile drive home and sure enough, the truck starts exhibiting the same symptoms for which I'd brought it in; engine misfiring, and check engine light flashing. I brought it back the following morning, and though it was another day or so before they could look at it, it turned out to be a bad spark plug wire and there was no charge for the repeat service. It has been running beautifully since. On the whole, communications here can be clipped and terse, but it also means no nonsense, and I've detected no underlying dishonesty from anyone here. They're very straight up, and very busy, which I consider good things for a mechanic shop. The business itself is pretty small, with two garage bays and a small, closet sized office. Parking can be a little tricky, and unless you know what you're looking for, the business can be a little tricky to spot the first time around. They're very close to the Hoot Owl Cafe, which is about a 5-10 minute walk down the highway, so you can at least grab some quality grub if you're waiting for diagnosis or repair. I live all the way up in the Naples/Bonners Ferry area, but if I've got vehicle trouble again, I'm driving the extra miles to bring it here.

Officially am an ex- Les Schwab customer after being a loyal LS customer for over 40 years. I did…read morenot know Les Schwab has changed ownership over the years. The Les Schwab patriarch died, and it is not the same. Each time I come into the LS store for tires, their "bad news bear" salesperson comes out and informs me I need $2000+ "service" - brakes or a $1300 control arm replacement. I fell for the "you need brakes" for my 2006 Toyota 4 Runner and after the job the car just did not feel the same while driving. I took it back 2 mo later to LS and they said I needed control arm replacement. So I got a 2nd opinion at Lightning Lube and they found the CV joints badly damaged and in need of replacement. While doing that job, they discovered the 'new' calipers (which LS had alledgedly installed) were not new! While at LIghtning Lube, I met another disgruntled LS customer who was getting the work LS had done to his truck fixed and found the same scenario - the parts LS had charged him for and said they installed had not been installed! I escalated my complaint to corporate and that is when I discovered LS was sold out to some French corp. The corp guy did nothing for me. The local LS manager brought over a new caliper and Lightning installed it. My car runs great now and doesn't list to port. Seems you shouldn't trust anything LS says to you and go get a 2nd opinion before handing them $. I use Lighting Lube now. I use Gription Tire Pros for tire changes, they are slighlty cheaper, get the job done quick, and you don't have to deal with the "bad news bear" telling you there is something wrong with your car. Plus, I don't want LS purposefully screwing up my car just to get more money out of me in 2 months! Both Lightning Lube and Gription are awesome, great customer service and quick.
