Took my 98 Civic to Planet Honda for a $100 diagnostic test. I suspected transmission trouble. After running the tests, they said transmission was good but needed a sensor replaced and a clogged passage cleared. $800. I said OK. 3 days later I got a call saying that's done but it did NOT fix my problem and the transmission definitely needs repair. $1800 more. I said NO, but agreed to it ONLY after I was told I'd be charged only $1800. 4 more days later I pick up the car and they surprise me with a bill for $2700. Such cheating liars! That manager would only knock that bill down to $2272 and tried to tell me he is being nice and doing me a favor (???). Yeah, right. BOO to them (!!!)
