Larry's Service

I had taken my Ford Explorer to Meineke's because of a problem I was experiencing with the rear end. It had a sound like a tree branch was stuck in it and play in the breaks with a wobbly tire(s). I was told I had a bad wheel bearing and since it was a holiday weekend, the quote of around $600. to fix it was finally $1,700.00. My friend said I should ask Larry about it since it was so much more than they said. Well, Larry (personally) took the invoice and checked to see that they did the work they billed me for, then he checked the prices on the parts installed and work done and said that Meineke was pretty satisfied with their prices!! He could have done the same job for about a third of the price. Anyway, the real interesting part is that this particular problem seems to be something that nobody ever needs to have done, though Meineke say they do it all the time. I had had the car into Meineke the preceding weekend because of a problem with the window which would not work. The car is a Ford Explorer 2002 which has really been basically maintenance free it has over 100,000 miles on it. I told Larry, since he did not charge me to look at the work, checked on prices and was otherwise very nice, that I would write you and recommend him and hope he gets lots of business and I will take my car to him for anything from now on even an oil change.
