Consumer Comments for Total Automotive

Consumer from Washington, DC area

I recently had my 2007 truck in for an oil change and Lube. They advised me of several other things that needed to be done. This was the second time I had been there and I needed to check when I had last had them attended to. I did so, and called them back. They said they could wait until my next oil change. They were quite expensive, but in line with the prices at my previous shop, several years ago. Good news.
