We took our car in to get the air conditioning looked at, and when we got it back they told us that we needed a new battery and an alternator. Our brand new alternator, which we had just had replaced a month before by a mechanic we trust in Canada, was working just fine before we took it to Firestone. Furthermore, the mechanic and service attendants kept making eyes at each other and acting very oddly. I don't trust these guys any further than I could throw them, and I will never darken their door again. WORD TO THE WISE: Don't leave these characters alone with your car, not even for 5 minutes.
