    Business Response

    ******************** story changes as the days go on.  

    1 - **************** has NEVER spoken to **********************! I, however, have spoken to him- *********************** - as well as my Service Manager *******

    2 - Both of us asked **************** to bring the vehicle to us, or, if he preffered, we could tow it in - at our expense

    3 - **************** wanted an answer as to what the problem was before he brought the vehicle in - we can not diagnosis a problem without seeing the vehicle.

    4 - If **************** had the vehicle towed over to the dealership at his expense he could have just as easily had it towed to us

    5 - The transmission we rebuilt was brought to us out of the vehicle and was then picked up from us and installed in the vehicle by another shop - I have never seen the vehicle - therefore I have no way of saying that the vehicle he brought to the dealership has the transmission in it that we rebuilt.

    6 - **************** ws NEVER refused any warranty - until he claimed that the dealer worked on the transmission after us.

    To put it simply, I cannot do warranty work on a vehicle if I do not have the vehicle to work on. Moreover, it is impossible for me to verify that the vehicle **************** brought to ***************** is the same vehicle that he put the transmission in. The only thing that was denied to *************** was an over-the-phone diagnosis. We offered *************** the option to have us do any repairs that would have been covered under his warranty, and he instead elected to bring his vehicle to a different shop; a vehicle that I have never seen with a transmission that I cannot verify as having been worked on by me. Mr. ******* perspective is repugnant to the reality of the situation and his continued efforts to stain the character of my shop, my techs, and myself is an utter disgrace.
