    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Answered
    I recently had my car fixed with this body shop. They were recommended by Gieco since I was in an accident (front side damage) and needed my car fixed. October 23rd, I bring my car to get fixed. December 01, my car was complete. They were paid $4200 for their poor job and took them over a month to get it done. Just the tip of the iceberg. Three weeks later (December 23rd) my car stop running, and my mother-in-law was stuck on the highway. It was towed back to this company, and they stated there was a transmission issue and that the issue had nothing to do with the work they did. The accident was in the front of the car, where the transmission was located. And they claimed that the accident that happened the transmission was fine, yet they did not do ANY diagnostic testing to confirm that the transmission was fine when the car first came in. The diagnostic testing came after they were paid $4200 dollars for some poor repair work from them. Not only did they claim that it was no fault of their own they tried to make me pay for the tow to get my car back! Like, I dont have insurance! They tried to bully me via email and told me I cant get my car until I pay $410 CASH. Really???, you dont take credit and you just want cash? Very fishy business with poor work ethic and terrible communication skills. Last email the guy from the company sends me is sorry, ***** will be paying for the tow. Yea I know ****** like I told you before! This place has VERY poor service and they will not investigate your car fully before just fixing what they can see and send you on your way with a broken car. I blame ***** too for recommending this company. I mean they are supposed to be the experts in this type of stuff, and they send me to these deceitful people
