My daughter who lives in another county decided to save dad the trouble of getting her car through inspection in Pa. She had a coupon for a local repair shop and went there instead. When she went to get her car she was told of a few problems for the safety inspection and also the repairs were 600 bucks. She called dad! It seemed high so she brought the car to me and we went over the list. Pollish headlights, missing lug nutt. (there's a biggy) one fog light bulb, one motor mount (two were broken and quite obvious) and the rear wheel cyclinders were leaking. NOT!
As we went over the car and pulled the rear wheels the brakes were fine all good no leaks. We performed the other work with my friend a 50 year career shop owner and inspection mechanic and myself another 40 year vet of the business. And told my daughter they must have made a mistake, she returned the car to the other shop and when she went to pick up her inspected car. It wasn't. They told her not only did she have to pay another inspection fee to relook at the car.
Her brakes were probably cleaned up by me and still needed new wheel cyclinders. Funny the state police fraud inspectors didn't quite see it that way, as they were taking photo's of the car and it's equipment the next day back here. I know this clown has all these postings online about how great they are like 250 or so, funny seem to be written allmost every day and the same time frame. Hummm??? If they really had such a loyal following you wouldn't need coupons to fish for work though would ya sport!!!
