      1,430 / 5,000 Translation results Translation result I came to this place (Famous Automotive And Tire Center in **** ********** **** ** ************* ** *****) to change a radiator with this company, it cost me 2000. two weeks later my truck started giving off white smoke from the exhaust. I went back to have it checked to use the guarantee they gave me for the job. After giving it a diagnosis, they told me that I had to replace the entire engine, something incredible, the cost would be 9000 or more, I had to wait two weeks to get answers and I came back to order my truck, I couldn't wait that long because I work with that truck is very important and it is the only car I have. In order to take my truck I had to pay 10% almost 1000 more. I paid a tow truck to take it to a trusted mechanic of my family and the result was. 3600 for the whole arrangement, it was not necessary to change the engine, the engine was in perfect condition. and it took only two and a half days of work. I feel very disappointed to go to that place. I lost a lot, a lot of money in three weeks. all the expenses of my truck and without being able to work for not being able to use my truck. These people tried to scam me or tried to abuse their service, I think they had the intention of changing my engine for another truck. I honestly do not recommend anyone to go to that place. I have invoices for everything they did and the payments. That place could make me lose about 12,500 or more in a month. great care

      This company is unethical with business practices. They intentionally mess up your car and then blame you for it. They prey on women and people of color specifically. When you leave a bad review the owner talks down to you and doesn't try to resolve the issue. He says he will look into it, gets mad and nothing gets accomplished. They treat their employees like trash and train them to follow their unethical practices and if you don't you're fired. When you reach out to the owner or management specifically district management they come back with the excuse of this is your fault or you're just mad, but somehow it's never their fault Also, every single employee that quits they give them bad references and say they are disgruntled employees. ALL because many feel uncomfortable following their unethical business model. Companies like this should be shut down !!
