Yep. I went to Rick Case for annual check up to have a feel. I signed up online for a regular oil change (I have 6K miles on the car because we don't drive a lot) and tire rotation. The online quote was $90. When I arrived, the guy (expert consultant or whatever they call them) said he recommends me to do wheel alignment (and the quote was $110 without tax and other fees). I pushed back and said I only want tire rotation and oil change. Then he started looking a bit displeased (as if I dare challenge his authority). So I decided to go for it (in case he put a secret note on the paper to let the guys in the workshop know to do/not do something to my car).
Then I swore myself I'll never go back to Rick Case again for regular maintenance (I'm going to have to find a good mechanic though, which is kind of tricky, but I'll do it out of my hatred of Rick Case). I had a horrible buying experience with them too (their finance guy trying to sell me $2600 'umbrella' insurance package, which when I pressed him, didn't specify anything it covers. I didn't end up taking it and the finance guy looked pissed (but I didn't care because the amount of money, $2600, is non-negligible).
