I am disgusted by the recent service my mother received at Mr. Mechanic. On the recommendation of a friend, my mom took her vehicle to Tim to look at. Tim put her car on a lift, ran pressurized water into it, and both she and Tim quickly realized that the water pump was broken. My mom exclaimed that she was relieved that the water pump was the problem as she is able to fix that. Tim then pointed out water leaking near her engine and told her that she also needed to replace various gaskets and quoted her nearly $500.00 to do the repairs. Since she didn't have that much money and is fairly mechanically inclined herself, my mom chose to fix the problem at home. She purchased the parts Tim told her were broken and proceeded to replace them. Since my mom is older and did the job herself, this took her quite some time. After replacing the gaskets and water pump, a whole new issue erupted. Her car is now leaking oil from the spot where the water was originally coming from. She contacted several mechanics, all of whom agree, her gaskets were never a problem in the first place. The water was leaking near the engine because it was under pressure and the water pump was broken. This is something that ANY mechanic would have known. My mother has now spent countless hours and unnecessary money fixing a problem that was never there in the first place, all at the direction of this "mechanic." He was upset with the fact that she planned to fix the water pump herself and thought if he inflated the problem, she'd leave the car there for him to fix and he'd make $500.00 off of an unknowing, vulnerable woman, all while only having to replace a water pump. Because this man was dishonest with her, she now has more problems with her car than she ever has. It is despicable that he chose to lie to her and continued to claim that she needed to repair these parts even after she told him that she would not be leaving the vehicle at his shop. Don't trust your vehicle to this man and definitely do not send someone to him who will not know when he tells them something untrue about their vehicle.

Did the work on my car and had a warranty on parts and labor for it but he wont stand by his work only days after clutch replaced. Told me I just had to live with it! Not happy and wont be returning.
