“Mikes auto repair is super friendly and do their best to help you out.”
Not A Good First Impression.
I went in for an estimate for a cooling hose replacement.
It was a heater hose that came directly off of the water pump.
First I was told that no such hose existed and that it was probably an engine plug or the water pump (red flag).
Once I insisted that such a hose did exist I was told it would be $50 labor to replace it, even though the hose is easily accessed when the car is lifted and is only about 4 inches long.
I can understand if they only want big jobs and want to discourage little ones, but it sounds like they possibly make little ones INTO big ones so I passed.
I did the repair myself and it took me about 10 minutes, and they lost an easy $30 bucks that I would have paid because I was feeling a bit lazy.…
