Sep 25 2017

Oil change at Sullivan Tire Westford. Going in, we know we need rear brake pads/rotors. They reported the serpentine belt is cracked (~$100 to replace vs. $22 part cost), air filter and CAF require replacement. They recommended waiting for next service to rotate tires. My later inspection says the serpentine belt is barely/finely cracked - some life left. Air filter changed in 2/2016 so should be OK - will need to open up and look. CAF last changed 1/2014, so probably does need service.

Sage took vehicle in to Sullivan Tire Bedford. Asked them to check balance as well due to slight vibration felt at speed, apparently in rear. Unclear whether they actually did that, but did rotate tires.

Apr 5 2016

Sullivan Tire Bedford. Strong push on changing tires, they recorded as 0/32s but incorrect (certainly NOT bald) and claimed "belt slip". Tail light replacement. Bad smell (like burning plastic) after job, returned to shop and they determined it was spilled oil on cat from filter removal.

Multi-Point Inspection and Service at Acton Chrysler. They used 5W20 oil "because that was what was on the coupon you used". Idiots. Now will need to do oil change on my own before our trip. They said front brake pads are low, and BACK TOO - despite my having just done those a short while ago.
