[car] Fresh Pond Mobil lied about work needed.

They said I had "play in [my] left inner tie rod".

I took it to the mechanic I bought it from, and trust, he jacked the wheel off the ground and shook it, and it looked nice and solid. And he's the one I'd pay to fix it. And he didn't charge me to look at it.

Good for you for not taking their word about it. I love my mechanics (ABJ Automotive on Marshall St. in I-don't-remember-whether-it's-Cambridge-or-Somerville-there) for exactly this reason; it's not at all uncommon for me to pick my car up with no charge when they look at it and say nothing needed to be done.
