Lots of People are learning about the true character of "Automo Bill's Inc."
First of all, Bills is not an incorporated business, but only a sole-proprietorship. The Arkansas Secretary of State's corporations search website shows that the corporate franchise for AUTOMO BILLS has been REVOKED. Wherefore, the owners cannot lawfully claim to be an incorporated business and are further exposing themselves to personal liability for the damage they may cause to customer vehicles.
Owner, William "Bill" Rogers, attempted to proselytize the customer, asking her to join his church, told her she was pretty and "with a smile like that, you're gonna get a good deal," and took a $100 deposit for a diagnosis on a minor battery drain problem.
Thereafter, staff miscommunicated the hours of operation, kept an Acura TL for five (5) calendar days with no repair, misdiagnosed a minor electrical problem with the Acura (stated the under-dash fusebox would need to be replaced due to "shortages" in the wiring), never provided a written estimate or received customer authorization to perform the work, severely damaged the wiring harness on the Acura during the "diagnosis," cracked plastic interior panels, lost fasteners, requested an additional $400 in order to complete the repair to the wiring damaged they caused, stated that the vehicle would have to go to "the dealership" even after Automo Bills repaired the car, refused to discuss the prior botched repair efforts with a new repair technician, ridiculously threatened a libel and slander lawsuit for publishing this, the truth, fervently denied causing the wiring damage, falsely claiming that the customer had "no proof" of the damage, and then refused to return the $100 deposit.
After repairing the wiring harness damaged caused by Automo Bills, the original customer complaint of a battery drain was promptly and easily diagnosed to the Handsfree Link Module not turning off after the car was parked for the evening. (A common problem known to Honda through its technical service bulletins.) Disconnecting the electrical connector to the Handsfree module stopped the battery drain and repaired the original problem.
The pictures posted alongside this review show the wiring harness after it was correctly repaired by another technician.
Automo Bills took $100 from the customer, misdiagnosed the problem, caused even more electrical problems and damage to the vehicle, and refused to return the $100.
Don't bother to patronize these incompetent, dishonest, grossly negligent, Automo Bulls--t artists.
Take your car or truck somewhere else, anywhere else.
