today i took my 2003 ford explorer 4.6 v8 to pep boys fallbrock woodland hills to change my oil and filter and starter after 4 hours waiting and paying $200 labor and $159 part starter total $359 i came to pick up my car the mechanic mariano minero start my car all sudden the car lights went crazy smoke coming from engine my odometer lights and interior lights went crazy i asked him what happened he was shocked telling me the engine has shortage let me fix it again , another 30 min work removing starter again this time when he start my car he said wire is bad , then many try to start the car smoke coming and lights going crazy, he told me engine blown out, i call the manager mike he told me it will cost me 1800 just to look in to my car , and its cam just got locked , he said park you car come back next day, i went to lock my car but the lights did not turn off , finally the mechanic removed battery positive head to turn the car lights, i wish i never take my car to pep boys, my car was running good day before and it did not start today sometimes starter made click click noise but it would start , today they killed it and i could see the harness going to battery all burned and smoked. the manager mike told me once elcterical and then without checking the car told me engine got stock with starter then last word was engine blown out, the mechanic told me its the battery, and starter, are bad,
B.S after B.S they try to get raid of me telling me tow you car engine is dead,
my question was if my engine was dead why did you changed oil and filter, and if the engine was bad why did they change my starter , its all comes to money and dishonesty.
when i went to pay my invoice he charged me for oil change 20 dollar instated of 15.99 andfor 5.1 liter mobil one which cost 40.99 he charged me 9.99 x 5= 49.99
they messd up my car over charghed me 15 doller extera blown my engine and paid 350 for doing nothing
iam going to take cold shower after walling home with no car and whole in my wallet it is my first and last visit to moe and many, and joe three stooges
