On 1/24/06 my mother took her car in to have the radiator flushed the bill was 50.66 she left drove straight home right down the road the next moroning she was on her way to work and the car was over heating bad she called them back and they said bring it in so she did they took the car in she waited they finially came out said it was her thermostat so they replaced that with a charge of 93.58 then they came out again and said oh sorry not the thermostat its a blown head gasket and the cost for that is around 1,000.00 she called me all upset i told her not to let them touch the car mind you she has never had a problem with this car before so she left it and called her regular mechainc and he couldnt look at it for over a week so she would have to tow it home and wait but she couldnt tow it until she payed the 93.58 for the thermostat why i dont know that didnt fix the problem so anyway she tows it again a week later to her mechanic in the mean time trying to get rides to and from work etc. Well her mechanic calls and said not a blown head gasket they didnt burp the radiator cost 60.00 so she went without a car for over a week, bought a thermostat she didnt need two tow trips all for a radiator flush. They should pay her everything back plus what she had to pay her mechanic to burp it and to think they tryed to get her for a blown head gasket. If they couldnt flush the radiator right do you think they could have tackled the job of a head gasket?
