| - Never taking my car to Shuppe's in Sun Prairie ever again. Have been taking my car there for years because my dad recommended. Have had several bad experiences, my dad kept making excuses for them, but I've had it. They're incompetent and pompous and I don't have time to take my car back every time after something was fixed.
This time was super special. I had a suspension bolt sticking out into my brake that started making horrible noise after they replaced the axle. The axle hadn't been making noise or anything, just had a hole in the grease cover that I wanted taken care of to prevent the issues, but oh man... it sounded great all weekend! (Talk about embarrassing.)
My dad thinks this guy is the greatest, both times I had them work on brakes, I had to take it back, because apparently they haven't heard of bleeding them and filling up the master cylinder with fluid.
Oh, wait, he said he'd make time today to fix it for free? How can I pass that up? I don't know, I guess paying someone else so I'm paying twice to not let them touch my car again sounded good.
And my dad and mom say, well I have a high miles car, I can't expect things on it to be perfect? Um....I've never had a suspension bolt jump out to start rubbing on my brakes before...... is that a thing? Or is my car magically Wisconsin winter rust proof? But I get a lecture about how I should be looking at getting a new car??? Because OBVIOUSLY I wouldn't have had to take a new car back to the shop to have the brakes bled because that's totally related to the miles on my car.... in fact, I should probably just buy a brand new car every three months instead of changing oil.
Really, am I asking too much to ask someone to elaborate about why I should be looking at a new car? Can they explain the function of my car that is in question? Is a cylinder weak? Transmission skipping? Something? Seriously, I can read the odometer myself. I know I'm only going to school to be a scientist, but I still have a vagina and probably wouldn't understand a car. Is that it? That fuel, ignition, air combination on wheels is too much for my brain. Or maybe it's functioning fine? Maybe I was told about the odometer reading three years ago and I haven't made a car payment or had problems besides wear and tear and the human error and I find their points incongruous.
I'm thinking about buying a new car just to shut them up, but I wouldn't take any car back to this place. Awful.
