PACE Garage

Not all mechanics are equal! This picture shows a side by side comparison of a hose that a local freelance mechanic “modified” to make it fit back on a water pump job for the customer. The hose on the left was oil soaked and spongy, and had been trimmed to fit back on the vehicle.

The right is a used, but good condition, oem water pump hose. Instead of telling the customer up front, or even in the middle of the job, that this hose was compromised and needed replaced, he continued with reinstallation and called it good.

This hose was replaced at the customers request, but the vehicle has another leaking hose directly above it, which will also have to be replaced.

Now the customer is forced to face more downtime, more repair charges, and worst of all, paid someone for a job that was incomplete, and the same person had the nerve to request an additional $50 after the job to be further compensated.

We will always strive to be up front with our customers, transparent about the repair process, and as always, fix it right the first time!

We never manage to get good pictures or videos when working on a job. But here’s some from today, at least a little evidence that we do work lol. Customer had their window taped up for months and finally decided to get it fixed today, so a quick regulator replacement was in order. The window now rolls up and down as it should and the customer is happy, which is our aim every time!

Who’s interested in custom headlights? We have been talking with a major company that offers custom headlight upgrades and would love to gauge the interest in our area!

Today’s job consisted of replacing the AC condenser, receiver/drier, and oxygen sensor on a PRISTINE 04 Saturn vue redline! Unfortunately as usual we failed to take pictures of the process lol. Still taking appointments for new work of all kinds! DM us today to book your appointment.
