  I went to Mr Lube at 7030 King George Hwy on Monday morning 29 September for an oil change for my 2004 ****** Frontier 4x4 pickup. I specifically told the attendant that I only needed an oil change and nothing else. I am hard of hearing and did not wear my hearing aids so did not know or hear clearly what that the attendant was telling me. When I got the bill, $185.89 It was more than I was expecting to pay. I had to ask for an invoice which I thought was unusual. My vehicle now has 3 warning codes which I am not able to restore. I researched an engine flush and found this is not a recommended procedure for my vehicle. The attendant did not tell me exactly what they were doing or why was this needed to be done. When the warning codes appeared it clearly indicated that there was a mechanical problem which would restrict the use of driving to avoid a major engine failure. I want the warning codes restored and want this shop to stop upselling customers.

  Hello, this is ***** from Mr. **** on **** ****** and 70th.I am the operations manager at the locations, Mrs. ******** came to our location on October 16, 2024, to service her 2018 ****** Yaris Le. The vehicle had ***** kilometers at visit. We went over the oil change package with the customer and confirmed with her the type of oil and the price. Once she agreed we continued to perform the service on her car. As a regular Service it is part of service to check all the serviceable components on the customers car and because it was her first time, we did not have any records of the vehicle in our system. We found that her cabin air filter was dirty with particles, and we showed the customer the filter along with the price to change it. These cabin air filters are due at the *****km ***** but it also depends on the environment the vehicle is being driven in. Based on the customers kilometers she was due for a transmission service which according to the manufacturers service interval is due at ******km. Once again, we went over the price and showed her the service interval based on her manufacture interval. We also checked the customers spark plugs.The electrodes and threads were covered with oil and unburnt carbon. We showed the customer the spark plugs and informed her that it would be a good idea to change them to restore the ignition systems efficiency. We went over the price with the customer as well. The service order screen is also seen by the customer the entire service. We also show the customer the manufacture intervals during the service.
  It was the store manager and the assistant manager that had serviced the customers vehicles. They both have over 12 years of experience working on vehicles in the service department. The managers at the time had an enjoyable conversation with the customers and explained every service to ensure she understood the benefits and the importance of getting them done. We continued to educate the customer throughout the service, and she had a wonderful experience based on the interactions with the management team. She agreed to all the services and did not have any issues at the time. After the service the invoice was explained by the manager and the customer signed it to acknowledge the work that was performed on the vehicle.
  We had the customers Dad visit our location on October *******. He came to the store and verbally abused my entire team. We explained everything that was done on his daughters car and even explained the service intervals.He was not reasonable at all and continued to abuse the team and did not want to listen to what they had to say. He then started to approach our customers that were in the store for a service and shared with them that we provide an unethical service. He continued this for a few minutes and then left the shop.This is not any way to deal with a situation and no person should be treated in this manner. The customer then visited the store a few weeks later and argued with the store manager. We attempted to resolve the situation but because of the customers attitude we were not able to have a civil conversation with him.The contact information we had was the one of the actual customers that had visited the location. We attempted to contact her via phone and even left a msg requesting her to call us back.
  We were really surprised by this entire ordeal because the customersinitial experience was great, there were no concerns at the time. We conduct business in the most professional manner the experience of our customers is very important to the entire team. We did nothing wrong in this entire situation as everything was done by the book and the customer had agreed to every service.
