After written estimate, deposit, and completion of work Mike Bauer added $800 in labor to my final invoice w/o approval nor a valid reason. Ultimately tried to explain the $800 charge as for 'extra test drives' to check for issues with the same $2,800 repair I declined because it was not needed. Bauer was extremely rude, demeaning, and angry bc he was called out for these multiple attempts at padding my invoice. He got away with the bulk of it by refusing to allow me to pay what was agreed and wouldn't return my vehicle though i'd driven 4 hours to pick it up on Christmas Eve. YOU are much better off taking your equipment to the dealer for repairs.

I am revising the below review and adding 1 star as the regional manager did reach out to me after…read moreseveral conversations with the store staff and refunded the cost of the brake work that in my opinion was either unnecessary or previously done poorly by Firestone. He stood by the judgement of the store staff but agreed one shouldn't need new brakes after just 8,000 miles. I appreciate that Firestone made the effort to resolve this issue. Not every place would do that so have to give them credit. I have been coming here for over 6 years and have mostly felt this was an honest shop but the last few visits I have seen a big push to up sell and add on services that I am not sure are always needed. The last straw was when I had my wife go in for an oil change and she came home with over $700 dollars of charges. Once again I am not a mechanic so it's a bit hard to dispute but what seemed odd was that they told her she needed new rear brakes, rotors and a change in brake fluid. She got the additional work done but when I looked at old receipts we had Firestone do all that to all 4 wheels 3 years ago. Although 3 years maybe a while ago we only put 8,000 miles on the car in that time. I can't imagine even with hard driving in 8,000 miles we would need all new brakes on the rear. I called the Manager the next day but he said he was not around the day of the service and passed me off on the guy who sold her all the extra services. He swore that company policy is to recommend new breaks after 2 years or 24,000 miles and the rear breaks were wore down to just 2 and 3mm. I find it very hard to believe that even under the most extreme driving conditions after 8,000 miles and 3 years a garage kept car would need all that brake work. The sales guy kept insisting he doesn't up sell and recommend unnecessary services. I unfortunately have lost confidence in this shop and will likely be looking for a new place.
