I dropped my car off on 1/20/24 to be inspected. He sent me the diagnostic 1/21/24. On 2/2 he sent a form to fill out for a payment plan to see if I qualified, it was denied 2/5, he let me know he would set up a payment plan with me directly and let me know I needed to make a down payment and pay the diagnostic fee, & that Id have to pay ********* 2 wks and he would hold on to the car until majority was paid off. On 2/6 I agreed. I called 2/9 but he was unavailable so i sent him a msg saying that I would send him $600 and asked if he could work something out to where I could drive the car while paying it off & he said we might be able to work something out. 2/9 I asked how long itd take to get fixed & he said hed let me know when he got to the shop & would tell me how much $600 would cover in parts. Then he told once he got started, itd be a day or 2 to be completed. 2/9 he also let me know that Id have to pay $1k up front because it was $2k total. I agreed. I paid $500 2/15, $400 2/16, $200 2/23. 3/8 I asked for an ETA with no response. 3/12 my GF called to ask for ************** couldnt give her one. Then he messaged me saying the part he needed would be in 3/15 & that it would be finished a few days from 3/15 and that I would need to pay in full when it was finished, even though the agreement was that I could pay every 2 wks. 3/26 i asked for an update and asked if it would be ready and if not, Id come get the car and a refund. 4/2 he msg me back saying stop asking for updates, you need to be up here today, you will be charged a storage fee if you want the car, its torn down & in process and there will be no refund of any sort. I asked him if the car would be done and if not, Im not picking it up until it is. Since this convo & even before I have followed up twice a wk, calling the shop with no resolution or ETA. I was fine with paying but dont feel comfortable paying up front bc i dont believe he fixing it. Pls call/email me for additional details.
