Default Timing Belt change Tampa?

I need to do my 90K on my Sequoia, let me know if there is anyone that can do it, or knows a shop that doesn't charge an arm and a leg.

Hello. I am looking for an honest lexus mechanic. The clearwater dealer tells me I need to replace my water pump but I have no leaks. And they cannot show me any. Replace my entire rack and pinion set up because of a leak on the right boot, but have no leaks on my garage even after settting for two weeks. They also said my tires were dry rotted and needed to replace all four, the other cars in the shop had tires that looked the same to me, on the lot too. Three weeks before the same dealer told me all was fine. I have become suspicious of the dealer now..
Thanks for any recommendations you can make.

Hello! Do you have contact info for the master lexus mechanic in Clearwater? Please send it to me.? I did resolve the rack and pinion issue as well as a cracked dash replacement.. I contacted lexus customer satisfaction. They agreed to pay $1300 for brand new lexus rack and pinion and I paid $200. They agreed to replace the dash with a new one, they paid $1000 and I paid $200. There is nothing wrong with my tires, water pump nor timing belt. They broke the lenses on the dash that covers the instruments, they paid for that 100%, they broke it. I drove there brand new little CT hybrid for five days as that is how long it took to fix it. I still do not trust them at the dealer ship, so please let me know about your mechanic. I would appreciate it. Thank you. davemaribel
