Right off the "It needs nothing" lot: Fuel leak. Broken brake vacuum hard line to the brake booster. Exhaust leak, fumes in the interior. Front side markers out. Rear left brake/signal light out. Rear tires, inside tread worn passed the wear bars, and had recently passed inspection? Other issues: Rear brake pads barely passable. EVAP solenoid line was not properly connected. Brake vacuum pump line was not properly connected. ABS harness to pump was not secured. Check engine light for Catalytic Converters below threshold. Check engine light for EVAP flow too high. Coolant cap was bad, allowed coolant to evacuate the motor, and no pressure to build in the coolant system, which pancaked the upper radiator hose, and causes a major coolant leak from blowing out of the over-flow reservoir, and engine temps reached 246 degrees. ECU was not clipped into place. Door lock broken, and non functional & no FOB to secure the vehicle. Intake hose to throttle body was completely loose. Oil leaks (Valve covers, VVT solenoids and cam sensors). Engine air filter was in dire need of replacement. Cabin air filter was almost completely clogged. No record of the last oil change. They didn't even clean the interior. Told them the Battery was bad; had it tested twice; they said "Of course they'll tell you it's bad, to sell you a new battery." They ignored that, and finally had to get Jumped in Ohio while on the job. Tensioner pully completely blew apart, and stranded me 120 miles form home. This was after I just got it back. They did not HEAR it making that noise? The VVT sensors do not require O-rings, but the CAM sensors do. If they replaced all four O-rings like they said, then why did they glue the cam sensors in with silicone sealant? I can't get them out without breaking them. They said they put catalytic converters in. Well, the driver side secondary catalytic converter is empty. There is no evidence that there was any cat material in it. You can see straight through to the floor in the pictures. No one verified the cats were in tact before installing, and I have had a P0430 code since day one. They had the car for TEN WEEKS, as I made payments and insurance paymens, and could not fix it. I put in an OEM sensor, and had it fixed within 8 hours total time, of trial and error. TEN weeks and they could not do it. They said they put new O2 sensors in, yet one was not an OEM sensor, and they said it "demanded" OEM (AC Delco) sensors; and, the driver side BOSCH sensor had two holes drilled in the tip of it. They also tried to use spark plug anti-fouler spacers to correct the Catalyst Insufficiency codes. All that tampering by them, federally illegal, and returned the car in that condition. They refused to supply actual work orders and invoices for the work and parts, and got offended when I asked. All I got was a hand written 1980s Mel's Diner lunch precept. Dirty vehicles, no history reports, and not an honest staff. Their repair facility is also very inept, and missed too many problems with the vehicle when it was inspected, OR, didn't care. Sub-par service and product. Their 6-month unlimited mile warranty is WORTHLESS! IT does not cover the timing chain/belt or any of those components. HEAD GASKETS are covered for coolant leaks only. The #1 failure on used cars is head gaskets! If you see MUD in the coolant reservoir, RUN! If any covered part fails within 250 miles, it is considered a preexisting condition and will NOT be covered. Labor rates are over $60 an hour, and all they cover is $60 an our. There is a $100 deductible per occurrence, and a claim CANNOT exceed $1500! All this warranty is, is bait to sell cars, because it's worthless. Then to find out the brake vacuum pump never worked either! The idiots replaced the line, but NEVER tested the pump. This is why I do not have brakes on initial COLD starts... read more
