    I do all of my work myself and would never let a dealership touch it unless I ABSOLUTELY had to. That being said, has anyone had a bad experience at Veracom since that's where I'd take it if i HAD to?

    If any dealership, I'd give San Rafael Mitsubishi a shot... the other dealerships I've been to seem pretty shady.

    I do everything myself. Oil changes, tire rotation, mounting and balancing, alignments, rattles, etc.

    A fellow member here took his 03' to Veracom to get two of his Brembo's replaced under warranty because of the quite common discoloration you see on them. Picked up his car and noticed one of the new calipers had a big chip in it to start with. Then drove, literally down the block, when the pedal went to the floor!!!

    That definitely reinforced my feelings about letting someone else work on my car when I am capable of doing it myself.

    Not even if it's a factory recall...screw them. I asked them to grease the bearings in the muffler...1000 mile check up, their response was to order new bearings because there isn't a zirt to grease them. :lol:
