      Took my car to Woodies on Lawyers Rd, not only was the staff rude and condescending, but they scammed me and my daughter a total of $625.45 between the two of us. I paid $330.45 and my daughter paid $295.00. Because we needed to get the tags renewed on the car, we took it to Woodies because the check engine light was on. They had the car for several days and said they had found the problem, that there was an issue with the cooling system and a sensor. They claimed to have had done extensive testing and drove my car around to make sure everything was right. When I looked at the documents I noticed that the extensive testing was driving the car for 2 miles (through odometer readings on the paperwork) and when my daughter drove my car within the same parking area the airbag light came on. And 10 minutes down the road she heard clicking noises and the check engine light came on. We had to take the car back and they called us 2 days later claiming that there was a separate problem despite their claims that they had done everything and fully fixed the car previously. They wanted to charge us an additional $451.99 to complete this new fix which we did not do because they claimed to have done everything initially. They now say that there is a vacuum leak at the brake booster line and dipstick tube.I want a full refund for the total $625.45 because this situation made me have to leave work early and caused immense amounts of stress. I do not trust the business to do another "fix" because of their behavior and lack of trust because of this incident.

      I took my 2011 ***** XC-90 to Woodies in May 2024 to check why the engine light was on. They told me I needed 2 new catalytic converters which I trusted them since I had been going there for 7 years. About 6 months later I saw a neighborhood app customer complaint on them how they were ripped off. I went back through my past invoices on my car repairs and saw that Meineke in *********, ** had replaced one of the catalytic converters two years prior. I went to ******* a few days ago to get a state inspection which failed due to a catalytic converter. I took the car back to Woodies since it was under warranty and they did a diagnostic test and told me it was a separate item that attaches to the converter that was causing the engine light to stay on. **** said he took the part off the converter from the one he replaced in May. The diagnostic charge was $130.00 for something they replaced 2 months ago in May 2024. As with 90 percent of the time I took the car in over the past 7 years they always tell me I need to change this and that and it will cost $1, 000 to *****. I would usually take their advice until I read the neighborhood app complaint on them. As expected Woodies told me I needed ***** of more repairs. I said no this time and I will never go there again and will put this on our neighborhood app. My name is *********************** and I would not go to Woodies again.
