I do all my own work. Always have. I recently did an engine and tranny swap in my 94 accord. While doing the swap I had my ball joints and wheel bearings replaced. Pep boys of frederick, MD pressed in my new wheel bearings for me. I took my car to another shop for tires and alignment and was informed by the tech that my wheel bearings were falling out. They told me it was a result of not being pressed in all the way. I took the car to pep boys and told them they should fix it since they screwed it up and I got a call the next day saying it was my fault cuz I didn't tighten the axle nut all the way. I laughed because I torque them down to spec. Of all the work I put into this car I wouldn't ignore something major like that. Then they want to charge me almost $500 to fix it. I called corporatewith my complaint and they said it will take 48hrs to get back to me. Don't trust these crooks with any part of your vehicle!
