Big rip-off. I was quoted $3780 for head gasket and they claimed it would take 5 to 7 days. Then they said they replaced 2 engine mounts and wanted $850 more. Later I found out that the mounts for my car are between $35 - $50 for a total of $85 for 2 of them. They already had the engine off the car, so why charging $850 instead of $85 for deciding between the old and new mounts. Then they called claiming that they replaced the ignition coil and wanted $870 more. The ignition coil at Parts-Geek is only $49. So from the initial price of $3780 they went up to $5500 and they took 40 days instead of 7. I then told them that I cannot longer afford this bill because my budget was for the initial price. I then asked for the parts they took out and they do not have them. they are very dishonest. Beware of one called Robert. He is mean and disrespectful. He called me on 10-23-17 saying that my car was ready. I told him again that I have the prices from different suppliers regarding the engine mounts and the ignition coil and they are about $50 each. Then he said that instead of the ignition coil he replaced the computer. I told him that he was supposed to get my authorization first and told him that I need my old computer back. He said that he had to turn it in to get a new one. This is false. I contacted the dealer and they said I do not have to turn the old computer to get a new one. From the initial stimate of $3780 he wanted $5600. He already has $1500 that he asked to start the work. He is a crook. STAY AWAY!!. He also said when asked about the guaranty that I would have to pay for the labor involved. WHAT KIND OF GUARANTY IS THAT!!
