Do not use this mechanic

Do not ever use this shady, incompetant repair shop. The timing belt sensor on my car needed to be replaced. When the mechanic called to get authorization for the repair he continuously tried to up-sell me on ""cleanings"" and services my car did not need. Things like fuel injector cleaning and replacing spark plugs. He claimed my valve seals needed to be replaced. I only authorized him to replace the sensor bec... view moreuase I can do basic maintenance and there was no emissions test or engine code that indicated anything with my valve seals was in need of repair. This was all over the phone though and not in writing. When the vehicle was repaired and I went to pick it up, he`d charged me for the cleanings and valve seals. He also claims that I authorized the work. This issue is in dispute; however, the issue of contention pivots on what I verbally authorized the repair shop to do. This mechanic is devious and knew that there would be no recorded evidence of what I authorized, only of the work he performed. To make this situation worse, the individual that conducted the repair broke the metal connection between my alarm and the ignition system and tried to hide the mistake. Since I found this problem out a month later, the repair shop claimed I had broken my own alarm connection. That`s what I do with my free time, break my own car so I can argue with disreputable repair shops. This mechanic`s dishonesty did not stop there. They disengaged my air conditioner so that would stop working, my belief is so that I would return the vehicle for more ""repairs"" and unauthorized work.
If you use this repair shop, I believe they will use similar deception to steal your money and harm your vehicle.
