I was recommended here by a great friend of mine, decided to give it a shot. I took my truck which I knew it was a blown head gasket. I had barely gotten the truck, don't get me wrong I knew it was pretty beat, but I didn't say what the issue was as I wanted to see if he knew. Mr. Mariano automatically knew by my trucks sound/overheating that it was probably a blown head gasket. Made me feel comfortable because the man knew right away. However, once he took it in he did mention to me that if there was a cracked head then it would take longer than expected and more pricey. Within the week he called saying it had a cracked head, and he said he would take it to the machine shop, get it cut and fixed. Once that was all done "supposedly", the truck ran well for about 2 months, little did I know the truck started over heating again. Took it back and the man put blue devil gasket sealer after telling him not to. So you can already imagine, that thing is a temporary fix. Shit I could've done that and had saved us both the time. I wanted the job done right and paid the man to do the job right the first time. So after 1 month an a half it started over heating again. Decided to do the job myself, by removing the engine come to realize the heads were both cracked NOT ONE BUT BOTH, and no work was done to them or why else would they be cracked? Had to rebuild the engine and cost me triple the money. The man straight up lied and probably put sealer since the very beginning, it was very disappointing, it sucks how now a days its hard to trust mechanics. And to top it off, he was like " nothing else we can do, if anything you can get a new motor and ill charge you x amount of money since we already did work on it" .... lol dude is delusional. Just be upfront next time or don't do the job, I would not come back here, and well a little advice, DO research on your own car and save yourself the pain. read more
