I have never written a review before, but my recent experience at Les Schwab has left me shaken and…read moreextremely disappointed. I feel obligated to share what happened in hopes that others are spared from a similar experience, and so this situation is taken seriously. On August 16th at 8AM, I brought in my 2012 BMW 335is for a scheduled consultation because my brake pads were low. After the inspection, I was presented with a service quote of over $2,000, which included replacing rotors, calipers, discs, sensors, and even new tires I never requested. I explained that I have experience building cars and knew my rotors and calipers were fine. However, I was told it was "policy and liability" to replace everything. I declined the tires, but the bill was still over $1,700. Despite the high cost, I agreed only because I had no tools or other options, and I was told it could be done that same day. After I approved the work, I was then told it wouldn't be ready until Monday, August 18th. When I picked up my car on the 18th, I left the lot and reached the first red light. To my horror, my brakes nearly failed completely--traveling 35-40 mph, it took 8 full seconds of pressing my brake pedal to the floor before the car came to a complete stop. I narrowly avoided a collision. Terrified, I immediately pulled over and called Les Schwab. Instead of offering a tow, they told me to drive the car back despite the risk, with only 30 minutes before closing. Once there, I explained the situation in detail. A older technician looked over the car and insisted "nothing was wrong." I asked multiple times for documentation stating that my brakes were fine since this was a serious safety and liability concern, but I was refused three times. I then asked the same tech to test drive it. He first drove it briefly in the lot, when he came back and said nothing was wrong, again, I explained how I was going about 40 mph when this happened and not as slow as him in the parking lot, then--frustrated by my persistence--he grabbed my keys aggressively off the counter, spoke to me in a hostile tone saying "I'll take it for a test drive" and scoffs, and took the car for over 30 minutes. When he returned, he again said "nothing was wrong." I later realized the car had been taken into the shop without my consent or explanation of what was done. This only added to my fear that something was quietly fixed to avoid admitting fault. The next day I spoke directly with the manager, Jesse. Unlike the prior experience, the manager listened and took me seriously. He test drove the car with me, and while the brakes then felt fine, we soon discovered a new issue: a terrible banging sound above 30 mph. After multiple inspections, it turned out my plastic under-guard had been damaged, something that was not present before. This reinforced my concern that the aggressive technician may have driven my lowered car recklessly during his 30-minute "test drive." When I brought this up, the manager said it couldn't be proven. I was given no documentation of any work, inspections, or explanations of anything since picking it up originally. By the end, I was left with: A $1,700+ bill for work I did not fully agree was necessary. A terrifying brake failure immediately after service. An employee who was aggressive, dismissive, reckless, and unprofessional. Refusal of written documentation despite my repeated requests. A new issue (broken under-guard) that did not exist before service. Lost wages from a day and a half of missed work. I want to make clear: this situation was not just inconvenient, it was traumatizing. At 23, with no parents or outside help, this left me legally and financially vulnerable, while also placing me in real danger on the road. I take meticulous care of my car, it is my dream car since I was 15, and to leave a trusted shop only to nearly crash was unacceptable. I am asking Les Schwab corporate to review this case immediately. I sincerely hope Les Schwab does the right thing, not just for me, but to restore trust with customers who depend on them for safety.

They were nice and understanding throughout the process; I know it's not easy to cut costs for a customer. These guys will not BS you and seem very legitimate and honest in what they recommend needs repairing. They helped me out when I was in a tough spot and I really appreciate that.

I call for an appointment for a tire rotation and re-balance. They tell me I don't need a reservation and just come in around 8AM and leave it all day. He says they always leave open spots for walk-ins. I guess walk-ins are for people buying something other than the free services they are so proud to tell you about when they are trying to sell you something. I go in about 8:05am for the rotation and they asked me if I have an appointment, no I don't. Can't do it and tell me it would be next Thursday at 3pm. I say forget it, I will go to Lewiston instead. My girlfriend has also bought all her tires from Moscow Les Schwab. She wanted her winter tires siped. When we went to pick it up and I looked at the tires, they were not siped properly. The salesman looks at them and says they're fine, I called BS and proved to him they were wrong. they re-siped them. She changes out her winter tires, all ok until I find a lug nut rolling around in the back of her car with a broken stud in it. Look at the wheels and yep, there is a wheel with a missing lug nut. No notes or inf about it at all. They want it for 3 hours for a 15 minute job! Never again will I go back to Moscow. It's not the same since Les passed away!

I spent over $4,000 for a new power steering pump, alignment, and they somehow found that my steering was still not straight (even though it was not an issue before) so they called me and told me everything they needed to do. Since I travel for work 5 days a week, I felt I had no choice but to let them continue and finish the service. When I brought the final cost and services to a different auto repair shop, they felt so bad for me for spending the money I did. That's when I knew I made a big, big mistake. They also don't have an issue pressuring you into making sure they get to work on your car. They want to overcharge and take advantage of people who have little to no car maintenance experience. They also take too long to get simple repairs done. I had my car dropped off for the above service. During that time, I needed to get a rental because they didn't have any loaner cars available (according to them). They promised me it would only take 2 days. I called every day for 4 days and then they changed the pick up day/time for the following day. Finally was ready. BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!! I drove about 5 miles and started hearing noises as I drove on the main road. I took it back and they said my struts were worn out and they needed to be replaced. I asked them how did they not catch that during my initial service? They told me they didn't hear anything during the test drive and they didn't do anything to those parts of the car. BULLCRAP! They did a wheel alignment (or did they?). I took it to Les Schwab and they said my struts were fine that they were just loose and they did what they did for free and sent me on my way. My assumption for that is they want to take their sweet a$$ time so they can charge more for labor costs. So many issues with this crap auto repair company. I encourage anyone who is thinking of getting services done here to go elsewhere. Literally anywhere else in Moscow or Pullman. Heck, travel to Spokane/CDA if you have to. It will save you so much time, money and frustrations!

We also bought a used Tacoma and GMC Sierra. In addition, our recommendation led to at least two sales from family members. We also participated in an advertisement for the dealership, doing a video interview for it. About 1.5 years ago, we decided we no longer needed our one year old Highlander hybrid and were wanting to liquidate it and our paid off GMC Sierra and purchase a pickup that was good for towing. Unfortunately, we were underwater on the Highlander and recognized that we would owe more than it was worth if we traded it in or sold it to the dealer. We talked to a salesman and received a dollar quote for what we would owe if we sold it back to them. We decided to take the offer and came in the next day to make the deal. We would have traded it in instead of selling it back if there had been a truck we were interested in. When we got to the dealership we talked to the salesman and said we would take the deal. He said he needed to talk to his manager and the manager returned to talk to us. He said the deal was a no go and wasn't remotely possible, even sounding irritated at us, even though the salesman was the one who offered the terms. We let him know this and he flatly refused. He didn't apologize for the confusion or make any attempt to find a workable solution or make it up to us in any way. Needless to say, we took our business elsewhere. We will never do business with Toyota of Pullman again and will strongly discourage others from it too. We love Toyota still so maybe we'll check out the dealership in Lewiston.
