Ira Tewksbury MA- Anyone have a rip off experience?

IS there any dealer out there that does not screw you over? I go in there for one thing and they slap a $50 bill in my face and say they can't do it because my calipers are seized. I was forced to pay $50 bucks for them to tell me something I could of found out on my own.

IS there anything us people can do to fight this type of ****? Better business bearu? I mean I never signed for any other work to be performed on my car then a brake bleed.

They could not do it. So give me my car back. This is making me not want another nissan even though I love Nissans, I just am hating the stealer ship and how my car is fine for a whole year and another year later almost a grand in work. =/

Other then that... the Mechanic(Jeff) was kinda chill and the service salesman reminded me..eventho he was nice he kinda seemed like a skeeze ball and just one of those guys that TOTALLY understands but don't do **** about it to help you...

but I still got a bill estimate of 2 grand for all new brakes except for the rear calipers, Wheel bearings and inner tierods. That is what I get for not doing CV axles right away.

I know the price could be worse but they did not do **** to my car. The did not even take the wheels off.

ok here is what I sent them in my feedback...


Came in for a brake bleed on my car and nothing else and they could not do it and just visually looked at it spun a tire or too and did not even take the wheels off. Then went ahead to charge me $46 bucks for something I could of found out on my own since I used to work on cars for a living but did not have the time or tools to perform a brake bleed myself. SO I took it to a place I thought I could trust with my money.

If they actually took off the calipers and Mic tested everything then $46 bucks would be worth it, but all they did was lift the car up and looked at it without taking apart anything. How is that labor again? I asked for a discount and they just said no with out reasoning, Not to mention the service manager could not tell me. Other then those cons. Things were speedy and the mech that brought my car in was professinal.

I also plan to bring my Nissan to other franchises other then Ira in the near future for my clutch that needs to be done mainly because I never agreed to paying for a check in the first place. I am sure if I bought my clutch in they will say I need a new transmission flush and charge for that cause oil has 1k on it right now.
