I brought my car in for a gas leak, trouble accelerating, sputtering, shaking, and rpm jumping. they ordered and installed a new fuel line. After they called to tell me everything was working great from the replacement, I payed for the repair and brought it to the gas station to fill up. I looked underneath the car while filling up because all the issues were still present driving over there. A considerable amount of gas was spilling out. Brought it back, showed them the video I shot of it and they said they were sorry that the clamp was bad so they replaced it. fair enough right?
No, it wasn't fair. All the issues besides the leaking gas were present. still though, I could smell gas by the back seat when I would get out. I'm afraid to drive it. Then brought it back again. So I guess they just drove it around a bit and called to say they don't see any issues.
They said I'll go for a drive with you.
Inside the office where nobody was present and my keys along with others were open for grabs. took the keys went to my car just to turn it on there in their parking lot to see, hear and smell all problems right then and there. without question, I drove away to another mechanic, insulted that they'd try to say there weren't any issues.
I will never go back there because I feel ripped off and cheated.
You go to a mechanic to diagnose such problems so that you don't break down with bigger issues
later. They have failed to adequately acknowledge and diagnose the problem/problems. read more
