Default Well if the tires are going to be off. Have them look @ the Suspension.

Seems to be a rash of suspension part failures (that's a little harsh), but cannot think of a better word this morning.

Make sure the calipers are floating freely.

Default If the shop doesn't know the order in which they should bleed the calipers...

then you may want to rethink taking your car there and paying them to do the job. Sounds like they may not do many brake bleeds.
