BEWARE! On my way home to VA ...

BEWARE! On my way home to VA from Kentucky, on HiWay 64 near Ona, WV, July 2012, my old 94 Geo Metro blew a head gasket. The A-1 tow truck driver suggested Hubie`s. I asked if he was related or had any interest in Hubie`s and was told "no" but that Hubie was good, and reasonable. So we went to Hubie`s and after explaining the car problem to him I drove a rental car home to Virginia. You may ponder as I... view more do whether this driver had a stake in the repair. I was floored when Hubie`s charge came to $587. I had gotten two estimates on the job at home for info and comparison. One from a larger garage, the other from a smaller one. Both came to approx. $400. Let me mention that I am a pretty good mechanic. In fact I rebuilt this engine 5 years ago. so I know the engine. Let me point out that the Metro has the simplest engine in any modern car. It has only 3 cylinders and is so simple to work on a one-armed blind man could have done the job in less time than Hubie charged me for-- almost 5 hours labor. So you can further see what you might run into with this mechanic here are the charges on my invoice: $174 for a gasket set which his own NAPA dealer priced to me for $102; $37 for a timing belt they priced to me for $18.99; $36.95 for changing the 3.5 quarts of oil and $18.50 for replacing the 1 gallon of anti-freeze. Note by these capacities that the Metro has a very small engine! Facts are facts. This man saw a stranded motorist 200 miles from home and took advantage of him. I expressed this to him as well as my reasoning given above. I`m sure he assumed that no one else would ever know?ˆ¦sorry to disappoint him. If you are thinking of using Hubie`s Automotive services this review of his ethics may be of help. Though I was a traveling stranger, If he will do this to me what`s to keep him from padding your charges too? Good luck with your car.
