“Before I took my vehicle for its 6,000 check up oil change. I began experiencing a lot of shaking in the wheel and brakes. I notified the dealership of this issue during the 6k check. They informed me it was my tire pressure. A week and a half later I took it back to darcars. Then they informed me one tire had too much air in it. Then I took it back again they states the rotors where worn because I let the car sit too long(???????????????) that was only after I went for a test drive with the shop manager and I told him thru conversation I don't drive the car that much. …”
