I was told Pioneer knew where to drop the car and keys. I was given a 10:00 a.m. appointment for Monday, May 11 and assured an estimate would be performed at that time. On Monday, May 11, I was given the run around. I was able to get an estimate on Tuesday, May 12 and authorized the work, totalling $540 be performed. The labor estimate was only 3 hours and I was told the vehicle would be ready by the close of business. At the agreed upon pickup time, I was told they had to order parts and they would be in in a day or two. Two days latter, I confirmed that parts were in.\ Through May 18, I kept being told to call back. I ultimately had to rent a car and drive to San Diego, as repairs were not performed. I was assured I would be called when the work was completed. I contacted Alturas Tire and Auto Repair from San Diego on May 21 and May 29. I relayed I would be picking up my grandson in Alturas on June 5. I was assured my car would be ready by June 5. On June 5, 2020 I found my vehicle in the weeds behind the shop. No work had been performed. It was blocked in by other vehicles. I was told Rusty was handling the repair and would be in between 2 and 3 p.m. I called shortly before 3 p.m. and was told by a different person that Rusty was home sick. I relayed that I was told he would be in between 2 and 3. I was then told to call back at 4:30 p.m. and maybe Rusty would be there. I was upset and asked what was going on, it had been a month and over 3 1/2 weeks since the parts were in. I confirmed it would only require 3 hours of labor to repair my car. I asked and it was confirmed that I was on a back burner and they would repair it when the got around to it and felt it. I inquired so, are you saying if you get around to it in the next year or so you will repair it - if not it is my problem I was told that's about it. I advised that I would need to pick up the car on Monday and remove it from their shop for repairs. I called back at 4 p.m. and talked to the lady I usually talk to. She told me she had the man answer because she saw it was me calling. She lied and said she heard what he said, and he never said I was on a back burner or it would be repaired when the got around to it. I repeated the actual conversation and she said "well that is not what he meant." He meant we do what we feel like and your not going to control us. I asked why they were treating me the way they had. She said she was not going to talk to me any further, pickup my car if I want to. I inquired about the two tows - while paid by AAA, they came off my account and are valued at over $200 each, leaving me with only 1 tow through October, as well as mistreatment. The lady told me they go through his all the time - with multiple people and nothing would come of it. Apparently they treat multiple people with intentional fraud by promising to perform repairs then not doing so and think they are above the law - as well as any moral or ethical behavior duties to those that rely upon their representations. I was told there is nothig I could do nothing about it. It was also falsely alleged that I had signed a work order with listed no date the repair would be completed. I authorized repairs telephonically. Any omissions from any work order was done maliciously by Alturas Tire and Auto Repair as they treat the consumer in similar fashion as I was treated "multiple" times. Prior to June 5, I was patient and attempted to be flexible - in spite of multiple damages being inflicted do to broken promises - i.e. delayed travel, two tows, rental car to get back to San Diego, private transportation to Susanville to pickup rental as public transportation was closed (COVID-19), etc. Following the June 5, 2020 broken promise I had lost my patients - the Office manager thought I was renting a one way rental to pickup my car and grandson and assured me the vehicle would be ready (instead I drove up in another vehicle - otherwise we would have been stranded because, in spite of a promise to do so, they did not feel like fixing my car yet.

They sent the engine to A & I. So initially when I decided to do this little adventure with Rick and Kevin all was well. I mean there were some red flags, like not getting back to me ever, everything taking FOREVER, and a bit of the mansplaining but I let it slide. When we started the rebuild Rick wanted to replace the clutch. He had a certain one in mind which was higher performance. We also assumed new alternator and starter as both were failing. So I called every few weeks and it was taking a while and then the day finally comes and we go get her. Rick shows us some stuff and off we go. We are supposed to put 500 miles on and come back. We get home and park. There is oil dripping out everywhere. I call and they tell me that they started it without an oil plug in and it blew clean new oil all over the engine. No, they didn't clean it up but I can bring it back and they will. Next day I try to start it to do that...won't start. When it finally starts it is making a horrible squeal. Shut it off immediately. Call Kevin and he says I should have it towed in. I should. They came and got it after I was like nope dont think so. So before they come get it we are looking under the hood...they didn't replace the old ass starter, the alternator ( original 1991) or the clutch. I ask Rick about clutch and he says to me, i couldn't find the one I (he) wanted. Im like wtf. I ask about the other things and he says if we did all that it would be too expensive. So I want these parts replaced. I think asking the customer WHILE YOU HAVE THE ENGINE OUT might be your play but Rick didnt think so I guess. So my partner goes down to shop and says hey...we want the new parts but we dont think we should pay shop time just pay parts. This is because, again, they had the engine out, they could have called us to ok parts or not but chose not too. The next week I talk with Rick about a time line, he says has to order parts. I call the next week he says parts will be in Tuesday. So I call back (parts should have arrived Tuesday I call wednesday). Kevin says it will be three more weeks. I ask why and he talks about getting it back on the lift etc. I mention to Kevin what Rick said about parts in by Tuesday so why 3 more weeks and Kevin gets upset says he can have Rick call me but I noped out of that because at this point Rick is being a dick about the whole thing. So Kevin calls my partner the next day to say car is ready. No idea what happened to 3 weeks because he didnt call ME about MY vehicle even though I am the only one who has signed anything or paid anything. Whatever. I call Kevin back to get the total.... $960...wtf? Partner calls Rick and he literally has a little tantrum on the phone (it was on speaker phone):and says fine you dont owe anything. I would have left it there but my partner went down and paid for the parts that they jacked up (doubled) the price on. So my take on the whole thing is that Rick and Kevin are nice if you never challenge them or ask them to take responsibility for anything they fucked up. What a shame. Hard pass on this place.
