My car wouldn't start. They tell me to get it into their shop and they can find out what's wrong. They tell me my spark plugs and everything are fine but my crank shaft sensor needs replacing. \r
\r
They also tell me that there was a problem with my sensor being eroded to the machine and that it may take a bit to get it off. All in all they charge me a little over 200. No big deal right? At $65/hr for labor, who can argue when most places are $90-95/hr.\r
\r
Then my car didn't start a week later. \r
\r
I decide to take it somewhere closer. They check the codes and find out that they either:\r
a.) never actually replaced my crank shaft sensor\r
or b.) replaced it with a very used one.\r
\r
Oh and my spark plugs actually need need replacing. \r
\r
I will be having a few choice words for dear ole "Fred" tomorrow.
