    Time to switch dealerships for service. Wouldn’t hurt to send that to the service manager with the pic attached and put them on blast. To be fair, its probably the service manager that is implementing the bullshit replace brake pads at all costs policy but maybe you get something free out of it.

      Stealership tried that on me once, I told them to keep the old ones for me. When I went to pick up my car I went to the parts dept and asked to borrow a set of pads for 5 minutes, walked back to service counter and showed them the new vs old maybe 2 mil difference at most. Kept the old pads, did not pay for the new ones. Got my oil change for free as well. Fuck em all

        I call bullshit. No parts counter is gonna let you just walk away with brake pads to “borrow” them and throw the rest of service under the bus.

        Yes, and pics help with exposure of your review. All reviews I write with pictures, have received 10’s of thousands of more views than others.

        Like 8 years later, Google updates me when my review hits a new milestone. “Your review has been seen by 100,000 people!” Etc.
