Hi guys,
Well i got to run to the fire house for a shift this evening.Funny thing happened today,I go to the car place by me every 3 months and let them do the oil change on my car.So i get there and the guys id doing the oil,so he says...
Mech- you need brakes,when was the last time you change them
me- i did'nt you did 3 months ago and it came with a 6 month pad warrenty,so i get them for free right?
Mech-you need a tune up as well,
me-oh good,you did the last one 3 months ago as well and that came with a 6 month garentee as well,so i get that for free as well.
mech,also one of your belts is loose and looks worn,it will need to be changed too.
Me- oh goody you did that 8 months ago and that came with a 1 year warrenty,so thats for free too, yay for me.
Me to the mech-This is why i come here,cause you guys are so honest,no other place would have just given me new brakes,a oil change,a tune up and a new belt all for 25 bucks. Thanks guys.
So i was there like 3 hours instead of the 10 minute oil change, I keep all and any car/auto warrenty or garentee in my glove box,soon as i pulled them all out, this guy knew he had no choice but to honor them. I Do feel bad, however cause i know this new guy was trying to rip me off, someone else might have fell for it and left a 25$ oil change with a 400$ bill.Not to worry i called a good friend and a co-worker, the FDNY fire marshalls will be stopping by without notice to do a random inspection tomorrow.I also don't think i will be going back there ever again.I swear i left this place laughing.
