I Own a 1986 Ford F-150 4X4 Truck. I heard of Show Zone from a Customer at a Company in my area. Later in the future when I could not find a good mechanic to fix my trucks circumstances; I remembered what my previous customer said. I met the sales manager named Christopher. He did not say that he was the sales manager. He did not say what he did for Show Zone. I explained to him that My passenger side ball joints were worn out and needed emergency replacing but, at a price I could afford. I was charged $150 for labor to change front passenger ball joints, $15 for Hinge Pin Bushings, and $75 to change hinge pin bushings as well as $115 for Front Ball Joints, Upper and Lower for Passenger Side. In total $355 plus Sales Tax (7.0%)= $9.10 equals a total of $364.10. To make my truck look better I bought four wheel hub caps for my truck rims. My trucks rims needed to be tapped and drilled to install center caps on all four rims. I have a Edelbrock air filter that requires a special process to clean the filter with special foam cleaner spray, and to re-alcohol the filter then dry for over an hour. Both rear brake drums needed replacing as well because I could not stop my truck! I was additionally charged for the brake shoes and hardware kit and a (3.0% Credit Card Fee)= $12.45 In total I spent $427.45. I needed the Drivers Side Ball Joints repaired as well. $265. I explained to the main owner, Christine Seprish, her Sales Manager: Christopher, and Co-Owner: Jerry Seprish, Andy: Mechanic, Devon Holden: Mechanic, Collen: Manager that I do not have clean running water at my apartment. My water is white like computer paper. I Take a shower and brush my teeth then head to bed for my next day of work. I do not eat most of the time. I work from 7:55AM to 6:40PM 4 days a week with no Breakfast, No Lunch, No Dinner. I live on United States Housing and Urban Development Housing. They have in my Lease that my truck has to be drivable and have no flat tires to be parked in the parking lot where I live. I explained all of this to the named individuals. I explained that I have 54 out of 60 allergens, Asthma, I did not go into further detail about my health because, the Sales Manager liked to make fun of his Mechanics, and other staff and Customers so it made no sense to tell them I had irritable Bowel Syndrome, An Overactive Bladder, Gall Stones that are still growing that need to be taken out, Joint Pain, Cartilage Pain, I go to the restroom 8 to 12 times a night.
I have no Pain Medication. I cant afford a Primary Care Physician. I am Permanently Disabled. When Ever the above Mentioned Owners and Staff, managers did not understand something about me The Owners and staff would Gossip about me with other customers who doubled as their friends and whom of which did not face these mannerisms from The owners and staff. the above mentioned people would go in the work bay area and gossip and make fun of me. It made no point to bring this to the attention of the Owners because they were a part of the Gossip and Making fun of Me! The Owners and Mechanics would openly make fun of me with each other and customers who were their friends when I stepped out side to watch my truck get worked on. Then when I came inside they would rush in the work bay to finish their Gossip and making fun of me. I tolerated the Gossiping and the Torment because I needed help with my truck being fixed. When My trucks hood would not open after the Mechanic named Andy tried engaging the trigger; I watched the other mechanic named Devon Holden scrabble to look for/and force the hood to come open; and even banging on my hood with his fist to get my hood to open! Then when I raised my voice for them to stop abusing my truck and that if they cant get something to work on my truck that they could ask me because I am the Owner of my truck and I know how to function my truck Devon Holden and Andy Angrily rushed in the Work Bay saying things that were untrue about what just occurred amongst themselves and to Jerry Seprish along with Sales Manager Christopher. I got two flat tires. One I was informed about by a neighbor knocking on my door to let me know. The other from me losing control of my truck because, the belts on my truck that I told Christopher and Andy to check because, while I am driving there is a loud "crying of the belts"; please fix them. I was told by Andy that they just needed tightening. they still made some noise. I spoke to Christopher the Sales Manager. He said he checked the belts himself. He said there was no problem. later on my way home the belts connecting the power steering pump to the engine popped while I was driving on the interstate. My engine chewed up my Belt!! I had no control to drive and steer. Some how I muscled my truck onto the grass on the shoulder of the roadway. Smoke was billowing off the motor and radiator! previously when I first met The Owners and Staff I explained that the only gauges that worked were my Speedometer. read more
