    HELLO: BBB

    *******************,2004 ******** E320

     We inspected and advised of needed repairs ******************** deferred or refused at this time the work that was needed and recommended due to cost and see how this takes care of the problem. Now that the new struts are installed on the vehicle it rides better the suspension is somewhat tighter.this will make the control arms that have worn bushings and bad ball joints knock and rattle more noticeable.we recommended these as at time of first repairs were done, he refused then. We relooked and explained to the customer what needed to be done to repair his problem he does not want to pay to have them repaired. it is noted on original repair order billing # ***** 6/19/2024 as well as his signature is on it as understanding the signed off on the work to be done and that was deferred at that time if ******************** wishes for us to repair the vehicle there will be a charge to do so as is explained on the repair order.

    I WOULD OFFER HELP IN THE REPAIR BUT IN NO CASE DO I SEE WHERE WE ARE GOING TO PAY TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED FOR HIM AT ALL.

    I totally disagree with their response. My car is no better and rides no better than it did before I took it in. The squeak in the front left is worse. Dont understand how that is possible. They tell me a new part is making it worse, cant be. 
    To get double charged for a part it should not squeak. How is double charging for a part fair?? In my honest opinion I got screwed!
