They'll take your money

I got short end...

I took my truck to their shop in hopes of getting it repaired so as to pass CA smog test. My truck qualified for the CA smog repair assistance program and they happen to be one of the approved shops in my area.

The trouble is my truck has aftermarket headers (exhaust manifold) and requires a C.A.R.B sticker. I couldn't find the original and had to call the manufacture. As a result the truck was labeled "tampered" with. The shop went ahead a did the smog test knowing it didn't pass the visual inspection. As a result they charged me for the work anyway. And they kept my letter of approval sent to me from the folks at the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR). So, I can't go to another shop and verify the test (new C.A.R.B sticker affixed). And, if it fails I have to go back to their shop to get the work covered under the assistance program. By keeping the letter they've guaranteed I have to go back to them.

They'll take your money when your not looking.
