Took my 2006 Yamaha 90 outboard, connected to the boat to this establishment in June. Motor was going into "guardian mode".
After a $800.00 repair bill for new carburetors, was told all was good.
When I took the boat out a couple of weeks later, NO CHANGE IN MOTOR PERFORMANCE!!!!!!!! So took it to another repair shop and was told that the reason was motor not pumping cooling water. After calling Poni back regarding this issue, I was informed that they would look into the issue, for another cost.
They also stated that since I did not request they sea test the motor they did not perform such a test. With a comment like that, I declined to have them service the motor and had another marine look at it.
They found that the lower unit water impeller was damaged causing the cooling issue. Plus found that the carburetors had green mold inside them.
After I informed the owner of PONI, I was refunded $200.00.
But that does not cover the expensive of having to have a real mechanic look at my motor. And this establishment claims that they are a Yamaha service center.
With the type of service I received how can this place have five stars? read more
