I wanted to give them negative Stars if I could -10!! \nThey charged me over Thousand Dollars for Work they Never Did!!! & Parts they Never Replaced!! They probably figured .... This girl will just jump in her car & Just drive it... \nNot Check Their Work!!! Well Guess What?? Busted!! I checked!!! I saw the Shady Shabby Non Work Done!! Aaaand I had other mechanics Look At It Too!! \nThey replaced Nothing and Poured a Head Gasket Sealant in my Engine ... $29.99 at your local Parts Store... Or $60 for the more expensive one!! Charged me over $1300!!\nI am reporting them to the BBB and Consumer Affairs... \nThis place was \"highly recommended\" by a friend from work... Big Fat Mistake!\n\nMy car over heated. I Never had an overheating problem with my car. So figured it was caused by a Stuck Thermostat? Because I had not replaced it in a while ...However, I did notice when It overheated -- a bit of white smoke... I thought -- uh oh! maybe?... probably the head gasket too? But I hoped not.... Anyhow. (I was not too surprised when I got the \"Bad\" News ...)\n\nI had my car towed to their shop. They said they would check it the next day to see what was wrong... Then a week went by--- no calls-- texts-- no emails-- NADA Nothing. I was beginning to worry.. No Up dates??? from them at all.. What was going on with my car?? \nSo I called them for news on my car.\n\nThey said I needed a Head Gasket Replacement & that They would have flush & drain all the fluids, oil and Filter replacement & all the Belts and hose, & that it would take a few days... It would Cost \"About $1200\"...\nFelt like I was kicked in the gut.. Went from thinking hoping thermostat-& $ 100bucks maybe $500???Max. To ... $1200\nI felt stuck, and TRUSTED my Friends Referral of them... So I said, \"ok go ahead and fix it.\"\nThe following week they called me.\nJeff wasTalking so very fast I barely could keep up with his pattern of fast blurts of Various information-- & without breaks in his fast explanations ... I just couldn't keep up with what he was rambling about .. \nBasically, Jeff told me it was Going to Cost More than they Originally Told Me... \n\nSo, I went over to the shop-- to check on what the New Money increase was -- face to face. \nI was nervous! Jeff said my Timing Belt was Sliced?? Really? I just had that changed couple years ago I drive about 5000 or less miles a year in that car!! & (My Car Ran Smooth Always. Never an issue!)\nI replied oh? Well who took out their Samari sword and Sliced it?\nHe replied \"oh don't worry that Belt only Cost like $35 ... And, I couldn't in 'good conscience' Not Replace this for you...\" (Really??)\nSo I am still standing there Waiting to hear the final Costs?? Finally He says it would be a few hundred more... Eehhh!!??? I asked again!!! \nOk? So??? that will Include Everything??? \nAlllllll The Belts All the radiator hoses?? All the fluids?? Everything? Right? He says Yes!! \nAnd repeated what I just said!! So, I repeated it again!!! To be Sure this Price increase was Including EVERYTHING!!! ALL!! THE BELTS N HOSES N FLUIDS &Parts needed for Head Gasket. (Which, He charged me Over $360 for Head Gasket kit)... When he was talking He Even made hand gestures \"including\"... All Parts Labor-- Everything!!!??? He repeated Aaalll the belts n hoses n fluids n gasket kit ... Everything\". I said \"Ok then lets get it repaired\"\nMy gut was a Mess! \n** I am emphasizing this conversation \nBeeeeecause!!! Jeff later Tries to say... & After I Call Him On Not Replacing the Parts .. Let alone the Labor Not Used.... Makes me Sick!! \n*** After I get my car back and I look at my engine the next Morning!!! And I See!! \nMy old Hoses and Cracked Belts and a Hole in another hose that I believe was not there prior. SO, Of COURSE!! I Call Him Immediately!!! And Ask??? Why are there Cracked Belts and Hoses still in my car? \nYou were supposed to Replace them!! \nHe hesitates then Says... \"You Said Not to Replace Them!?? Wtf!!!!!????? \nReally????? I said That??? Why? The hell would I Say THAT?? \nNOOOo!!!! I sure as Hell Did Not TELL YOU THAT??!! You Charged me More for the Hoses Belts... \n***Long Story Short... \n***They Never Replaced hoses, belts, thermostat, fluids, ... ***I have Photos!! \nOther Mechanics I took my car to said and Showed Me -- The Timing Belt cover was never Touched!! It Still had the same Green Pollen Dust covering it. No Finger Prints and No evidence of a Wrench ever working there! \nNONE Of the nuts or bolts and the Head Bolts Also!!! Not a Mark!! On it!! Idk? Why they replaced the Distributor Cap? My car Always Fired up! No Problems \nWhy change that and break my shit in the process?? Welllll, I can only say I think because they had to \"Make it LOOK LIKE THEY DID SOMETHING\" IN ORDER TO 'COVER' FOR DOING NOTHING. And Changing the Distributor Cap ... Well... THAT IS EASY!!! \nSTAY AWAY FROM THIS SHOP!!"^^ . . "0"^^ . .
