First of all, I would like to say that John sounded nice on the phone, even in person. But, I am questioning that now. He promised to fix my riding mower; it needed a new belt or two, one of the pulleys had to be fixed, he was gonna service the mower and I believe level the deck.
Now, after I mowed one-third of my yard, I heard a bad noise, and smelt smoke. When I got down and looked, the deck belt had burnt into.
I called John and we talked, and he tried to blame me, so, I took the blame
Next, I got a friend to come put the new belt on, I started mowing my yard again, I kept having trouble with the belt, and also every time I tried to engage the blades, the belt would jump off. I looked on top of deck , and a rod was off on one side; this is where the problem was coming from.
John had charged me $380. When I called him about the belt, he had told me to bring it back over there, but I had my friend put the belt on, because right now I don't trust John.
Now it is either try to find an honest person to fix my mower( which is only about 5-6 years old.), or just go buy another mower. read more
