Business ProfileforSalmon's Service Centers Inc

I have become a victim of fraudulent practices carried out by ******'s Auto Repair, a car repair company. I firmly believe that Salmon Auto Repair has violated the Washington Consumer Protection Act in the following ways: wrongful repair, consumer fraud, unjust enrichment, and unfair and deceptive practices.In October 2023, *******************************, a mechanic working for ******'s Auto Repair, recommended that I replace the Suspension Strut/Shock Absorber - Rear Suspension - Both Sides on my 2003 ****** Avalon, at a cost of $1,588.89. However, a prior inspection by ****** Seattle in August 2022 had suggested repairs totaling $11,971.23, but the overall brake condition was deemed in a fair condition.After the repair, I was unable to drive the car due to a control arm problem that was already identified in the ****** Seattle inspection, which ******************** had reviewed. When I confronted him, he confirmed that my car was not safe to drive . I was unable to argue with ******'s Auto Repair at the time due to personal circumstances.When I returned in January 2024 and requested the manager, *******************, to rectify the situation, he refused to perform the repair without obtaining a release of liability from me first. Unwilling to sign such a document before being able to verify with an independent mechanic that the car is safe to drive, I filed a small claims court case. I had already spent $1,588.89 on the repair and $2,428 on storage and was able to sell the car for only $290 to *********** Auto Dismantlers in January 2024.Additionally, when I arrived and parked my car nearby, I asked passersby to serve the shop with legal documents. However, some employees of ******'s Auto Repair shop refused to accept the package for service and threatened to tow my rental car, further confirming Salmon's Auto Repair's unfair business practices. At the end one of the employees of ******'s Auto Repair accepted the service from passerby.Sincerely, ************
