We brought our van in to this scam artist last year to have our 60,000 mile service done. They quoted me one price on the phone then gave me another once the job was done. We paid it...not happy. We drove the van home and it was misfiring and surging down the road. We took it back to them and they said that a plug wire was pinched during the first repair. They wanted us to pay to have it replaced. We refused and they reluctantly said they'd fix it. We drove the car home after they fixed it and the owner, Fred Hobbes, called me at work the next day and told me that they did a full tune up on the van and I was supposed to come in and pay the bill. I refused of course. If this isn't enough......a year later, the van starts acting up again and we take it to a real repair shop and they tell us that whomever did the last tune up on the car unplugged some wires and put the wrong type of plugs in it causing a solenoid to short out. This was a $450 repair caused by Fred's. We are taking them to small claims court.
