Aamco
Ripoff selling of transmissions that needed no repai

When I was working for AAmco in Cathedral City CA. I found my self in a very bad situation, They were selling everything that was coming in the door. I found my self be ordered to tear down a unit and write a worn and damage report that was false they even had the other part of the shop (building) full of bad units that they used to sell with you would just leave the good unit you tore down on the table or put in a cart and just before the owner would get there they would roll out the bad unit and show the car owner or adjuster the bad transmission.

This is not a place I want to work, I did not work all these years and buy all the tools and books, And even my own testing equipment to just wash cases and put them back together.

First I talked to them about it and of coarse that did no good and then I found out the salesman was in trouble with another State it seems he had owned his own shop and been caught doing what they was doing here. The owner was weak and what that means is if he has a honest salesman he is honest and a bad salesman he is bad. The owner is reporting 30 thousand a week but really doing in the mid 40s. Hes even selling them under the table writing up receipts on generic receipt books.

First they tried to threaten me, that don't fly so then they try to bribe me, So now I'm a sucker? Then the sales man make a bad mistake he says you know it would be a shame for your family to suffer for this. That is just to much, So they started a war. First I made them fire me, I then went to the city attorney, I had copied job numbers that I had to do that there was nothing wrong and also only signed th ROs that the transmission really needed to be rebuilt He didn't want mess with it go figure. They were laughing at me saying I was just a builder and didn't have enough smarts to do anything about what they were doing. But in the mean time I had stoled the receipt book that the owner was using for under the tables and called those people and most of them loved the new receipt with a full life time warranty instead of a 6 month or a year warranty.

I then fooled another owner into thinking that I had an interview with a news paper and being that CA. Has Strong AAmco owners association they called home office and the owner was forced to sell the shop in 24 hours, Can't do any thing Yuh right!

But the new owner even though home office promised that the salesman would never work for an AAmco again. Had that salesman working in about a month and home office did they help any of those people that got ripped off? No of coarse nothing was said the old owner walking around free as a bird. Me well of coarse you know I am black balled but thats okay I went bad to school got my degree and work for a company that sells modules to change fuel and also ship patterns with these new units. Lets say we try not to do anything for an AAmco but if we do they just pay a little more after all its just business just business
