BEWARE. Scammer alert!!!
Took my C3500 dually flatbed to Chris @ Twisted Services for a new motor. He asked for a deposit for materials to rebuild the motor. Gave him $1,000 cash to cover his expenses.
While the truck was still at his house shop I took my F150 in for a tuneup and new spark plugs. Chris did the work and afterward my truck did not run. Ended up leaving it at his house to be fixed. He never fixed my F150 or my Flatbed C3500. After two months I asked to get the vehicles back so they could be fixed. Chris claimed that I owed him money for storage and the repairs that were never done or done wrong.
He told me he was going to place a mechanics lien on my vehicles and keep them if I didn't pay. Ended up getting the police involved in order to recover my property and they promptly told him to return both vehicles because he had no grounds to hold either vehicle. After the police showed up he returned both vehicles but he took 2 of my $600 extension ladders off of my truck for some reason and I was unable to recover them. This guy never even worked on the Flatbed C3500 but was holding it hostage to try and collect for his unprofessional work.
He did work on my F150. He broke it.
I ended up at a different shop after all the drama and they told me that The reason my F150 would not run is that Twisted Services installed the wrong plugs. They were too long and my pistons were striking the end of the spark plug. This caused major damage to my truck motor. The bill to repair the damage to my motor that Twisted Services caused was over $3,000.
Beware of this sheisty scammer. He will break your vehicle and then refuse to return it until you pay a fee for work that did not happen or storage fees.
I recommend you call the police if you have any issues.
Chris is known by the Slidell police for this type of interaction.
The police said it was illegal for Twisted Services to demand a deposit. It was also illegal for Twisted Services to mechanics lien the vehicles because they were never repaired.
Stay far away from this company.
If it took the police to recover my vehicles then he wasn't asking them to be removed.
It was a hostage situation on his part.
Yes the C3500 motor was blown. That's why it was supposed to be fixed. Why would I ask for a vehicle to be fixed that was not broken.
Yes the vehicles were there 3 months. They should have been fixed long before that time.
3 months and no work was ever done except breaking my running truck. read more
