BEWARE/Cuidado- Mechanic Theft Alert!

Transmission issues that were diagnosed by 3 others, all estimated about the same. Well, my Uncle directs me to come here, I go... Get an estimate for $1,4k with a possible additional $350. Ok...I can live w/that. In my head, ""Let`s plan for $2-2,200""...Just In Case! Well, they charge a $600 fee just to take out the transmission & look at it. When they called me back, now the ""ESTIMATE"" jumps to $3,250...Arrrgghh... view morehh!@$%&*. What`s the problem I inquired? Oh well they found this & that wrong with it and everything needs to be replaced. Well Sir, that`s a bit out of my budget. I began to think of the other mechanic who quoted me $1,250 to rebuild & replace... I`ll just take it to them. So I said, ""I can`t afford that, need my car fixed, but that?ˆ™s too close to the quote for a new transmission from the manufacturer ($4k). (Side bar: Car just turned 6 yrs, I`m the only owner & driver& its just shy of 100k miles). Back to the conversation: ""Can you put the transmission back it & I`ll come & pick up the car b/c I can?ˆ™t afford that at this time. I`ll just take my chances & drive the car until it dies on me since I do local driving"".Well the friendly gentleman managing the place states: ""It`ll be an additional $700 to do just that- to put it back in the car"". So it`s going to cost me just to open up the transmission $1,300... OH MY LAWRD!!!!! Why didn`t he tell me that the $600 I agreed to would be an additional $700 just to put it back in if I decided not to proceed once they supposedly diagnosed the car. WOW!! Lesson Learned: Make sure I never go back here & tell the world of this situation hence why I`m writing this. I just hope not being a female w/ out of state plates got this price sky high.

Rip off professionals

These people are really good at ripping someone off. They quote you a price over the phone, then tear you car apart give you a higher price. They work on our car said it was fixed. We drove it off about 6 miles and it was just like it was. Called them back and they told us it was our problem to get it back to them. They said they drove it around the block and it worked fine for them. So after more cost of a tow bill ... view morethey repaired it again, and still have not received the warranty. We would not recommend them to anyone!!!
