That’s a good idea when specials are available. I’ll keep my eye open for a deal.
The last time I was at a Firestone shop, the mechanics were unable to tell which end of a screwdriver to use. I bet it’s worse now that qualified mechanics are difficult to find and hire.
I now go to privately owned shops where the owner/mechanic does the work.

You are 100% correct except that the AC system uses a “low pressure sensor” and not a switch but you are still right !!
