He is the most dishonest, unethical, and unprofessional person I have ever encountered.
I had an extremely disappointing experience with this mechanic, which ultimately led me to file a police complaint. I took my BMW to his shop to have the front brake pads and rotors replaced. He looked up the parts online and provided a quote of $1,400. Trusting him completely, I paid half upfront without hesitation.
The next day, I returned to have the parts installed. Up to this point, everything seemed fine, as I was hoping to build a good relationship with him for future service. However, he was very secretive about his work. Whenever I tried to check on the progress or ask questions, he would dismiss me, saying he couldn't allow anyone to watch.
After the job was done, I drove away but immediately noticed a squeaking and squealing sound coming from the brakes. Concerned, I returned to the shop right away. He assured me this noise was normal for new brakes and that it would go away after some driving. However, after a few hours on the road, the noise only got worse. I called him back, and he agreed to take another look.
This is when his true nature became apparent. I let him test drive the car so he could hear the sound himself, but instead of addressing the issue, he became defensive. I remained calm and tried to discuss my concerns, but he gradually became more aggressive. Eventually, realizing there was an issue with the installation, he lost his temper completely. When I politely suggested that he reinstall the parts in case something wasn't fitted correctly, he suddenly started yelling, cursing, and even attempted to physically assault me. He grabbed me by the throat, and fearing for my safety, I told him I would call the police. I left immediately and proceeded to file a complaint.
Unfortunately, I lost my $1,400 and was treated in an unacceptable manner. I later took my car to another shop, where they confirmed that the parts were either installed incorrectly or were of poor quality, which explained the loud, irritating noise.
I strongly caution others against trusting this individual. No one deserves to be treated this way, and I would never recommend his services to anyone. read more
