We got our 2004 Hyundai Sonata to Meineke to get a tune-up and timing belt replacement on 7/22. The automobile was operating good just before this. The sum total price was $876.
Inside A few times, we began reading loud sounds from the motor soon after startup. We delivered the vehicle to Meineke many times to possess this sound examined. At-one stage, we quit the vehicle there overnight. The technicians couldn't discover the reason for the sound.
In March of the sound delivered even higher while driving to function. The automobile was delivered to Meineke instantly. An examination revealed the bolt keeping the car tensioner had sheared off. The car tensioner, bolt and timing gear were changed. The sum total price of the fix was $340
In July of exactly the same sound delivered while operating from work. The vehicle was towed to Hyundai supplier. Technician checking the vehicle unearthed that the car tensioner bolt had sheared off. We described the sooner repairs. The technician mentioned that in 25 years of dealing with Hyundai, he'd never noticed one of these simple products shear down once, not to mention twice. The technician thought that incorrect torque have been used-to tighten the bolt. The timing gear, car tensioner and water pump required changed, projected price $1085.
Meineke did provide to recognize the guarantee and substitute the components at another area. Nevertheless, we don't think that the Meineke technicians are totally qualified of this type of fix and we just cannot afford to truly have the vehicle out-of support every 6 months. We'd like for Meineke to complete the best point and return our cash.
