Before I got my vehicle towards the Santa Clarita Pep Boys I required a top brake work estimation. $185. After I showed up, they instantly search my vehicle for that upsell by calculating the stand of the tires. Coincidentally, they've a 'purchase three get one-free' marketing. Simply the brakes, thanks, simply the brakes.
A couple of hours later I obtain a phone from Martin Andrade, the supervisor. He informs me they did not recognize my vehicle was fourwheeldrive and also the new cost is likely to be almost double. Today, my vehicle includes a 2' lift package with giant offroad wheels and six PIAA lamps about the entrance. Did not understand it had been fourwheeldrive? I am considering, do I want these folks focusing on my vehicle? I tell Martin to forget it. The cost is a lot of and besides, I informed the individual about the phone and also the man who examined me inside it was fourwheeldrive. I will move around and select the vehicle up. Not a problem, he informs me.
After I appear, anything is wholly ripped apart. They'd to totally consider the wheels aside before they found it had been fourwheeldrive? Following a lengthy hot debate Martin agreed to do the brake work for that unique projected price. I created them place the vehicle back together and required it to some local technician.
In hindsite, it is simple to place their techniques. Low ball the estimation about the phone. When the upsell fails whenever you provide the vehicle in they try to look for grounds to boost the estimation. If that does not function contain the vehicle hostage by getting it aside.
