Business ProfileforMecklenburg Fleet Holdings, Inc.

I took my car in for repair, signed a repair order for work amounting to $439.02. I was not kept notified of the price of the work as it changed, nor was it properly explained what work was being done. I was given vague explanations as to what needed to be done. I was desperate for my vehicle as it is my only car and I work a full time job, so I agreed over the phone to the changes without being made aware of the price for the work. When the work was finally done I was surprised to find my **** had gone from the initial $400, to over $900 during the middle of the repair, and ended with a grand total of $2019.45. I had to pay $400 in-person to get the car back, and was pressured into paying the rest of the money in incremental payments, of which I have paid $1294.52. However I decided to stop payments when the Pandemic came into effect as my job security was in question. I believe that I was deceived into paying more than what was legally agreed upon, and refuse to pay any more. As a result, the company has decided to hand the matter over to debt collection. I am in my twenties and live in an apartment by myself at this time. I trusted this company to do quality work and be honest because my father had done business with them in the past. If I had known that the price would change beyond the $400 worth that I had initially signed for, I would not have signed for the work with that company. In that regard, I believe that my credit should not suffer as a result of dishonest business practice.
