A Progressive client, dui did $50000 damage to my property and Progressive offered me a $28000 settlement--this is just another example of a large insurer with an in-house legal department that feels it can out-muscle the little guy--they are in for a big surprise. In the meantime do not buy insurance from this scam artist. read full review »

Excess wear and tear in the amount of 1075.00 that is ridiculous! The car is a mercedes slk350, sport car. There are tiny paint chips from driving the car to and from work on a main road. The car rides low to the ground and small chips occured as a course of normal wear...I took it to a body shop and he could not believe they considered this excess, questioning whether I may be confused! The dealer also has stated that US BANK has suspect inspection reports...they have not used them for 3 years due to customer complaints exactly like... read full review »

Using the company website, I ordered a replacement all0y wheel. This was the second time I'd done it that summer and, in all honesty, the first time went reasonably well. The only hitch was the tracking number was missing a digit and customer service was definitely the worst I've ever dealt with, but the item did arrive as ordered and in a timely fashion so I was ready to forgive the customer service experience. Then I attempted to purchase a second alloy wheel. I did it the same way as I did on the first instance but when I received... read full review »

I am writing to make you aware of a gentleman in Chicago who is defrauding people out of monies selling cars locally and on eBay and representing them as in excellent condition when they are not and actually purchasing inferior parts to put on them, then he lies to the customer telling them he knows nothing of the situation. His name is Khaled Elissawi. He goes by ‘Khal’. He uses two corporations to accomplish this: 1) Bay Ridge Motors Inc and 2) Lincoln’s Body Shop Inc. dba Lincoln Park Auto Sales, Inc.

Paid the down payment got the car guard in the mail took the car to the shop and was told that this car guard can ruin an engine so I decided to cancel the warrrenty it was with in the 30 days.

I sent my bike in for a service and M.O.T on Friday (26 September). I requested that the drive belt also be replaced. I was quoted around £150 all inclusive. 4 days later and : 1. A rear tyre has been replaced that was perfectly good. 2. I've had the rollers replaced without request. 3. I've had all kinds of lies about ripped out fuel hoses, and a "faulty, " accelerator cable reported. I asked for nothing to be done about the accelerator cable as the costs now quoted at £350. On my arrival to... read full review »

When you buy tires from Pep Boys, they'll tell you that their Definity tires are made by Cooper. Most people associate the Cooper name with good tires made in the USA. Actually, these Definity tires are made in China. The tires may or may not be good, but employees shouldn't say that they're made by Cooper. read full review »

I had complained a few weeks ago to my local dealer about my Lexus ES 350 (still under full warranty) transmission. In short, when every I drove up a hill early in the morning, my Lexus would accelerate (rpms would suddenly flare up) when driving to work. They could not duplicate the issue because it only happen in the early morning during the first 10 minutes of operation. Looking on the web I found a service warning that the Lexus ES 350 transmission is known to flare up shifting from 3rd to 4th during the first 10 minutes of starting the... read full review »

I just recently went into a "Purrfect Auto" location Cave Creek Rd. just south of Thunderbird Rd. I had a coupon for a 9.95 oil change.The manager told me the 9.95 was for 4 cylinder cars 14.95 for 6 cylinder and 19.95 for 8. I walked out and reviewed coupon and discovered it stated none of this. I went back to ask manager to show me this and he stormed off and told me " have a nice f@#$n day". I asked him"what" and he repeated "Have a nice F@#$n day sir". I told him I was going to report him to the BBB and he repeated the Fraze again. read full review »

I went to get a part, and I was followed around as if I wanted to steal something. The general manager asked to black employees to defuse the situation because they could relate to another Black man. This is not the first time, prior to this I was asked if I wanted a job application when I went to view the Rx300. This time an employee told me that they were going to call police on me because I am an irritate customer. The GM tried to speak to me but his demeanor waws that of ignorance as he guaranteed me that the customer was always right. I want Ray Catena (the owner) to contact me. I will not stop until this situation is rectified. read full review »

I wanted to cancel the warranty but they said I can not get back my money. Since I will loose money without getting anything I let it go. After two months I had a trouble with my car, I can not get any shop to look up my car once we mentioned the warranty from Pacific Guard Warranty. It was only Tracy Honda that entertained me, but they already informed us that I will not get anything from the warranty. Thru enough I have to handle $ 1, 500.00 the repair of my car. The A/C compressor need to be change because it got damage. They claim that the... read full review »

These people are the biggest crooks in Texas. They try to rape you on your car deal and make the most money they can to pad their greedy pockets. Then, they don't follow through with their end of the deal. We have purchased 2 vehicles from them and got screwed both times! They are rude and arrogant and I will never buy from them again! I hope their dealership closes! We have been trying for 2 months to get the tag on our last vehicle we purchased and we still don't have it. They are CROOKS!!! Just go online and watch Avery Johnson's advertising videos - it will make you sick! It is a pack of lies! read full review »

We recently bought a 2006 Pontiac g6 from jet Chev in federal way, WA. When we bought the car there were a few little things that that needed attention and they promised us they would be taken care of (a handshake), went to dealership and everything changed, they said unless it was in writing they weren't going to do anything (I've been able to talk two people out of buying vehicles from these rip-offs, one person was buying two trucks, the other a vette, $170, 000 to save $200.00... smart move) and I've just begun! read full review »

On my way home one day, I decide to stop at a car wash. One that I hadn't been to before. Mistake! I asked for a basic wash with a vacuum, and was charged $11! That's such a rip off!!! (I have a small sports car) The wash was fine, but when I got in my car, they broke my power seat! Somehow when they moved my seat to fit them (which alone *** me off) they messed something up and now my seat won't self adjust anymore. They suck!! Do NOT go there! They over charge and break things! read full review »

I recently had my engine replaced 6 months ago and had my oil changed at a different company that usually has a long wait. So since I had some shopping to do I took my van to have an oil change at Wal-Mart. Two days after my oil change my engine started knocking and a plume of smoke came out of the tail pipe. I took my van to my mechanic and he verified my engine blew due to the oil change and that I would need a new engine. I went to Wal-Mart who sent a lady with camera to take pics of my van and who took a small sample of the oil. A few day... read full review »

I purchased gas at Hess Store no. 38279 at 16 E. DeKalb Pike, King of Prussia, PA 19406. The order number was 2404447. The pump showed 11.198 gallons but my gage had not yet indicated that the fuel level was low which means I had at least two gallons in the tank already. My tank only holds 12.5 gallons. I couldn't have gotten more than 10 gallons therefore, I was overcharge by more than one gallons' worth. read full review »

I took my car in for an oil change, tune-up and anti-freeze replacement. All for about $150 estimated price. They ended up keeping my car for a week . Nobody knew what was going on. They ended up boring out the heads on the vehicle instead of replacing the thermometer. The total repair price was over $1, 400. They told me, "We're all here to make a profit." They have done this before on other items, but this was the last straw. If you go to the Better Business Bureaus website, you will see that they do this quite frequently. They are completely lacking in business ethics. read full review »

This company and others like it are a ripoff. They make it impossible to complete the test, so you have to enroll into a class room in the long run. First of all the test consist of topics not related to driving at all. You learn about trivia you never cared about before. Call center phone reps like Nina are useless and a waste of minimum wage. If you ask for a manager you get Rachael who is queen airhead and now you understand where these come from. These companies are just rip offs, save you money and take the class. read full review »

I have tried to work things out with Joe Tajik at Stevens Creek Showcase auto dealership. They sold me a 1992 Mercedes Benz that is rife with problems ( Only God knows what the true mileage on this car is, because the speedometer is not correct). Each time I speak with Joe, it is one after another attempts to rip me off. Having encountered financial difficulties, I had to sell my 2002 Jaguar X-type. It had low mileage (under 65k miles) and was in excellent shape. Joe low-balled me by saying that it was only worth $9000 when KBB wa... read full review »

I had bad experience with the Budget in Aurora Colorado. Said they would take care of two problems, one being the door ajar light that makes tha alarm go off at random times, and the other a switch inthe steering column that allows the key to be taken out-this one you have to fight for about 10 minutes to get the key out. When I took the car in on Friday morning I waited to hear from them which I never did so I called at 5 to find out they had my truck in pieces and that for them to fix it I would have to pay just under $1000. I asked if... read full review »

Rent-A-Wreck - our worst car rental experience! We do not own a car by choice and have been renting cars from various companies over the last 10 years and have never experienced this low level of customer service before. We rented a car from September 19, 2008 to September 23, 2008 to attend a wedding 700km east of Vancouver BC. On the day of scheduled return, the car suddenly broke down on the on-ramp to the I-5 in Burlington WA, at 3:30PM. It appeared to have an electrical problem, originating at the battery.

The man that owns this business is as dishonest as they come. One of his drivers backed into me on labor day weekend and Mr. white filed with his insurance company. Insurance contacted me, gave me an estimate on the damage. After I took it to Reliance ford in La Porte Tx, had it repaired, I found out the driver of the truck changed his story when the insurance adjuster called him. I ended up paying for the damage myself. Why would Mr white file a claim if he thought he was not at fault. Why did his insurance company come out and give me an... read full review »

I was in the Vegas area and since they have many car dealerships around thought I would look. I found a great car and was pretty excited. My first car. This was overshadowed by the fact that once I left I realized that my contract was for $1000.00 more than it was to be. I had a blow out on the freeway. The GM said he would reimburse and then allowed $50 (for a tire!) when I paid $200.00 for a tire exactly like the other four. Who the *** wants a cheap tire on their car? I later found out a area underneath was bent and needed to be fixed... read full review »

Never liked Volvo after having an S40. Leased it, the service was weak and after the lease expired and I returned the car, the dealership failed to inspect the car when I dropped it off. The S40 was sideswiped and the dealership claimed it was us. Complete nonsense that lasted almost a year.

It's free to post and the best part is they send a letter to the company notifying them that they were added to the deadbeat list! read full review »

I went to Mr. Tire for a new tire. The technician badly scraped the rim all around. At first, management refused to accept responsibility--two immature and obnoxious guys. Then the manager agreed to have someone call me to repair the rim. No one called, so I wrote a letter to the corporate office (Monro Muffler). They promised to have someone look at the rim, but no one ever followed up. Then I complained to the county consumer affairs office. Finally, after almost 2 months, I received a check to repair the rim. Do not trust your car to this place. read full review »
