BEWARE OF DEALERSHIPS!! I went in for an OIL CHANGE. Nothing was wrong with my suspension, the car drove perfectly fine, and I had ZERO issues with the front end. While it was there they suddenly “found” play in my ball joint and tried selling me complete control arms. I declined because I didn’t authorize or ask for suspension work. I leave the shop and before I can even get down the road the BALL JOINT COMPLETELY SEPARATES from the control arm. Sorry, but I don’t believe in coincidences like that. A ball joint doesn’t just magically decide to fall apart five minutes after a shop was touching and inspecting that EXACT AREA trying to sell you the repair. In my opinion they intentionally loosened or damaged something expecting me to approve the control arms, and when I declined they sent the vehicle out anyway. I’m documenting everything because if a shop has to sabotage customers’ vehicles to sell work, they have absolutely no business touching anyone’s car.
