I went to work for Scotty at Spring City under the impression that he ran an honest auto repair shop. It only took about a week to find out differently.
On about the fifth day Scotty sold a lady a timming belt on a Honda with nothing else wrong but a bad rotor. That cost the lady around $350 more than what she needed to spend.
The next week he sold another lady fuel injectors in a 2002 Caravan with only 20K miles on it after I had checked it out and told him that the only problem was a plug wire had came off. That cost her over $850 for a loose plug wire.
I know of these two for sure because I was made to do the work and feel bad for these people. I saw other techs do work that I am sure that was not needed. There labor rate is around $97 while the normal rate in the area is around $70.
They also tried to sell my sister's father in-law a $800 stearing gear box when all it needed was a $25 hose.
I found another job the third week because I can not work for someone that does buisness that way. I am posting this to help inform consumers to be wary of this shop. It is not being run honestly.
