It doesn't just go for Jiffy Lube, almost all car maintenance/repair shops will try to "add-on" an additional service. It's business. The best thing to do is try to understand how your car works and know what to look out for. I had to learn the hard way after getting ripped off at Big O Tires. They recommended I replace my brake discs and pads on my 94 civic (I was 16 at the time) which I did reluctantly at about $1300. 6 months down the line when I had to repair a flat they recommended I replaced them again. I took it to a family friend at Brake Masters to have them check it out and they said they still looked new. Needless to say I never went back.
