BEWARE OF BAD AUTO TECHNICIANS

This has not much to do with okay sales. But i have been a mechanic for twenty five years.When you take your vehicle to a shop for repairs. Make sure you see what is wrong with your vehicle. Say like your car transmission is slipping and they say you need a new transmission. And all they do is fix your leak and change your fluid. Thats why it was slipping fluid got to low. So they charged you $1500.00 for a rebuilt transmission and it just cost them 30 bucks. when you have your brakes checked most places do it for free. Make sure you take your hubby or someone that knows vehicles. And see the parts that are wore out and tell them you want all the old parts or you probably will be charged for things you did not receive. I specialize and ASE certified in Brakes, Suspensions, engines, havc, So dont let someone say you need a 400.00 fuel pump when sometimes your gage is wrong and they add a gallon of gas. And what do you know it runs. But you paid around 600.00 dollars for a gallon ofgas and a used fuel gage. GO figure.That was one high gallon of gas.See Iv seen all this done before i have worked at shady places like this. That is why im writing this. I have seen mechanics put on 25 cent emc fuse in a vehicle that they told customer that it needed a new geputer in reality it needed a fuse that made geputer in the vehicle work. How about that $2,000 dollar bill for a 25 cent fuse. I have plenty more how about that customer that spends $75 dollars for a tow bill because your car dies and won't turn over or the engine won't turn for yall northern folks.and your car sits in a shop parking lot for all day.Because they know you can't leave your car is broke.So they keep pulling in their regular customers ahead of you because they can drive off.And you have no vehicle to drive. So you rent one. So happens this shop owner also has a car rental business.It cost deposit plus rental and tow bill. Now finally they get in your car and push it in the shop. You are not there your at walmart or at the mall. The mechanic checks out the car.Hes kinda new so he puts in a battery. He cranks the car. It runs like a new one. So he shuts the hood and starts to back it out of the shop.So guess what the alternator light is on. So hecalls the parts house to get a new alternator. Battery and alternator around 400.00 dollars guess what he goes to put on the alternator. The alternator belt were is it IT IS GONE. So this new guy does not want to look stupid. And he works on gemissionso he puts on a new alternator and a nnewbelt. And the car runs like a new one.AGAIN GO FIGURE. In reality all it needed was a $25.00 belt the belt broke the car ran till battery went dead and alternator won;t charge battery without a belt. So all in all car rental towing and all uneeded parts costed around 8 or 9HUNDRED dollars. For a $25 dollar belt. And also he keeps andtakes home that good used alternator. And maybe he mightSELL IT IN USED PARTS ON okay for around $50.00That is why i want to warn all consumers of vehicles. DO NOT LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU.PLEASE e-mail me for suggestions or gements Please take a second opinion. Like at the doctor you vehicle and your pocket deserves one. Gas is already killing our pockets. Much less getting ripped off at shops all over this great country of ours.Contact me through my wifes okay store. DONNAS COINSKEEPER STORE http://stores.okay.ge/DONNAS-COINSKEEPER-STORE Thanksfor letting me share my mind on this subject.Iv seen it done first hand in some of the stupid shops i worked at. But when you work for the other guy what can you say. That is why I have my own shop and have lots of returning customers. I dont hide nothing. I will check out their vehicle in front of them. Give them a set price and if I price wrong ill eat the loss. Because a happy customer will return. And word of moth is worth 100 gemercials. In a small town here in Kentucky four or five bad customers can ruin you. Everyone knows everyoneI live in the rural not city and stay busy just as much as the big guy up town ripping off folks.If this helped pleaseVOTE Thanks Joe Taylor
