I purchased a car after I had these guys do a pre-purchase inspection .. They told me the car was in very good shape minus the cost of repairing the power steering pump. \r
\r
When I brought it to my own mechanic to have the work done I was shown that the car had blown head gaskets,\r
leaking coolant plate, loose tie rods, oil seeping from the lower oil pan, in fact, the car should not be on the road.\r
\r
I notified the Bureau of Automotive Repairs who paid them a visit and cited them for two violations . They, of course, denied any responsibility for my financial losses. I would never have purchased the car without their inspection.\r
\r
The car is now being given to charity, Make-A-Wish Foundation. And, I am taking them to Small Claims Court for their incompetence. Is there ""malpractice insurance"" for garages?
