    Default ATTN: ALL of IA

    Dunno where to post this.... so i figured whoreslounge, so more people can see it



    So i came down from Pennsylvania yesterday for a week and the entire reason for making the trip down here was to pick up my car and drive it back to PA as I would be up there for a few months and didn't want it staying down here. I had dropped my car off at a local repair shop (Toyotechs) to fix a wiring harness that had been damaged due to a blowout TWO MONTHS ago and called them Sunday to find out that they had not even took a look at the car. I asked them if they would get started on it and they said they would look at it and get it done as soon as possible.

    So yesterday my friend picks me up from the airport and we head over to Toyotechs to go get my car. Walk in and the guy says it's "shot". Starts telling us that all the wires are fried and the chipsets are done etc.. head lights won't turn on, windshield wipers won't turn off. Then we ask well what specifically was wrong with the car and they reply with "I dunno". So that's when the shit started flying. Then they proceed to tell us that they didn't know which wires went where and they could not fix it. So then we ask if they had any wire schematics and such our even took the time to actually look at the car. Then they said that they pulled it in the shop and spent all night on it. After arguing with the guy for 15-20 mins, He was EXTREMELY rude, very cocky with a fuck you type of attitude. we finally ask if it runs with which he replied "yes" so we ask for the keys. I had delivered the car to them with a keyring with several different keys on it (Saftey Deposit Key, House Key, etc...) and only got my car key back. Asked them where the rest where and they replied agian with "I dunno, that was the only key that we got."

    So at this point we were fed up and just wanted to get the hell out of there (After they attempted to charge $1,000 for a "Storage Fee") so we go outside to the car, I get in try to crank it and nothing happens. So they come outside with a jumper pack and while we went around the front of the car we noticed that they had ran the front bumper of the car over the concrete block and chipped the paint from the bumper down to the fiberglass and complety warped it and fucked it up BIG TIME. Jumper pack doesn't work so they go grab some jumper cables. Hook em up to another car and the car cranks and as soon as they disconnect the cables car starts sputtering and dies. Then my buddy gets into the fray when the guys trys to tell him it's the battery that is making the car go dead. Even with his inexperience of dealing with motors he called bullshit and even pointed him to his GTP saying that car has a dead battery and you can jump it off and it will run and he replies with "Thanks for schooling me. even tho im the master tech here, AND have gone to college for this, thanks ass"

    So ready to throw some bricks through there windows we pack up and head to drop off the luggage while calling the towing company to drop it off at Carma Motorsports. We come back about an hour later and we are waiting on the wrecker when the guy who was the manager comes out and says "So you're getting it towed then?" With which we replied yes and he says "Well, good luck with that." then turns around and walks off.

    Long story short we get the car towed to Carma Motorsports come back the next morning and the guys over there are top notch. Their first time even hearing about the shop and they showed my buddies around, we're just awsome like they had known us for years. Even got to see and hear their street legal "Indy Car" and oh man is that thing badass. Would have got to ride in it to had it not been for the rain.

    Pretty retarted fucking bunch over at toyotechs when all they had to do was splice some wires together that were already marked. Anywho they suck ass and lawsuit pending.


    Clift notes

    Dropped car off 2 months ago
    they kept saying they needed more time
    called them 2 weeks ahead of time saying i need the car back i will be in town 2 weeks from now
    they said it WILL be done
    showed up, nothing was done
    Extremly rude, dissrespectfull and verbaly abusive
    they distroyed my frount bumber, bent my exhaust and fryed some circuits and other damage's
    Lost my keys
    Lawsuit is inthe works, for damage's

    Well i NOW have to replace ALL my house locks, because i dont want them using my keys to break in.


    Like i said Lawsuit is pending, we gave them a copy of the better business act stating we are sueing them for 6,500$ for all the locks we have to replace, my missing parts and important information, damage to the electronics, AND to the body



    The shop is in the Chamblee- dunwoody area, the people there are complete assholes.

    my friend who is just outa highschool knew more then their "master techs"

    Words can not explain the frustration i have for them right now...


    Just felt the need to warn people about this shop, i figure even tho is sucks that im going threw this shit, i would rather it be me then some one else, im here spreading the word, making sure this shit doenst happen to any of you IA'rs

    okay u learned a lesson the hard way never give a shop more than the key that they need ever. the other stuff well that just sucks. btw just because the new shop treats u nice and shows you around dont mean they know shit about cars.

    The shop is on Clairmont Rd, down the street from PDK. I tried calling them when I still had my truck and they really are a bunch of dumbfucks.
