On June 10, 2014, [redacted] brought in a [redacted], vin #[redacted], for us to check over.  He had just purchased the vehicle from someone and it had some mechanical issues. ...

The vehicle had over 167,000 miles on it at the time.  The van was running so poorly that we could barely get it into our shop. 
 
We found that the engine had two cylinders that were bad.  We informed [redacted] what we had found, and he advised us to go ahead and fix it.  Subsequently, after the first repairs, we found an issue with another cylinder and repaired that at our own expense.
 
[redacted] picked his van up on June 25, and paid for his repairs.  Within a few days, [redacted] called in to say that his backup camera was not working, and that it had worked before he left it here for the engine problems.  We informed him that we had not touched anything that had to do with the camera.  He stated at that time the engine was running fine.
 
On June 30, [redacted] came back in with the van.  This time complaining that it was cutting off on him and not shifting properly.  The vehicle was cutting off most likely because of the fuel pump. The fuel pump was a known issue to [redacted] upon the first visit, however he elected to use some type of fuel additive to try and fix the problem.  We checked out the transmission and advised that it had internal damage and would need to be replaced.  In order to check the transmission, we had to remove the transmission pan, therefore having to replace a gasket and fluid.  The engine also had low compression on another cylinder, and we gave [redacted] an estimate of $5334 to have it replaced.  [redacted] came and picked his vehicle up on July 5, at which time he refused to pay the $65 bill for the transmission parts/fluid that we had to use.
 
On July 16, I spoke with [redacted] and he informed me that he was upset with our service department.  He felt as if we should have offered him a price on replacing his engine and informed him of the transmission issues before we did any repairs. He was also upset that we did not tell him that he needed to replace the fuel pump.  At the time of the initial visit, the van was running so poorly that it could not be driven to diagnose the transmission issue or to even know the extent of the engine problems.  [redacted] was well aware of the fuel pump issues at the time.  We advised him of the issues that we had found with the engine and he elected for us to repair it.
 
On July 22, I spoke with [redacted] again, who was still upset about his van.  After speaking with [redacted], the owner, and [redacted], the service manager, I called [redacted] and offered to refund him  1/2 of the charges that he had been billed for repairing the engine, as a good will adjustment.  [redacted] stated that he was happy with that and would use the money to replace his fuel pump........
 
We do not feel as if we did anything wrong in the repairs to [redacted] van, however we do not like to have dissatisfied customers.  I hope that he will be more cautious the next time he purchases a used vehicle from someone.
 
Thank you,

Review: I took in a box truck to be checked out and asked them to look it over and inform me of what was wrong with it. They said it had engine problems and that they would have to send it to the machine shop to be fixed! I agreed feeling this was my only option. I got the truck back and it starts cutting off on me I call them and they state that bring it back they would look it over I bring it back and was told I could have gotten a rebuilt engine for what I just paid to have it fixed even though it's not fixed something is wrong with another cylinder so the engine is no good and they tell me that now it needs a transmission none of this was told to me the first time or I wouldn't have paid to have the engine halfway fixed. I feel I should have been offered a rebuilt engine before they halfway fixed the old one now my money is gone and I'm unable to drive the truckDesired Settlement: I want my truck either fixed or my money refunded
