修車奇遇

I sent my car to an auto shop for repair. They gave me a phone call for diagnostics and cost estimation. When I picked up the car several days later, they claimed the car has been repaired and tested. But after I drove the car for 10 minutes, the same problem happened again. I had to send the car back to their shop. They came up with a new problem of the car and another cost estimation, which I had no choice but to approve. When I came again to pick up the car, they claimed again the car had been repaired and tested on a 15-minute drive. But after I drove the "repaired" car for 10 minutes, the same problem occurred again. I had to send it back again. They came up with another new problem and another cost estimation, which, again, I had no choice but to let them do. Finally after the 3rd repair, the car is running okay now; but I paid for the 3 repairs. 

so my questions are (1) on their service policy, they should have given a written estimation, but I have never received any written estimation. On all the phone estimations, they claimed they found "THE" problem. (2) do I have reason to suspect they mis-diagnosed for the 1st and 2nd attempts of repairing the car, because the identical problems happened within minutes of my driving? (3) For the 1st time and 2nd time I picked up the car, they should have scanned the code and found there were still problems, but the obviously didn't bother to do that , when they said they "tested" the car (4) For the 1st and 2nd repairs, they obviously lied when they said they tested the car, especially for the 2nd time when they said they had done a long 15-min test, because the exactly same problem happened within my 5-minute driving. 

Had the mechanics have any responsibilities (meaning wrong doing) during this process? Also, after I found their repair was unsuccessful the first time, could I have just walked away without paying them?

感覺我自己以前不會修車的時候,在各dealer和garage的眼裏就是頭上頂著“宰我”兩個字的肥羊啊。 -成功的熊- 給 成功的熊 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 13:38:04

站這,還是應該學學懂點車,否則,真是沒辦法,隻能任人宰割。想當初,被換了個o2 sensor bank1 花了695刀。 -dongbeiren56- 給 dongbeiren56 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 15:45:18

不稀奇,滴樂級別的維修也會有類似的故事。什麽完全相同的問題?亮個燈什麽的可不見得就是“完全相同的問題”。 -Oneshotkill- 給 Oneshotkill 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 13:40:59

故障碼再現有的需要時間有的則不需要,即使相同的故障碼,不同的經驗,車係及智商都會有不同的診斷結果,舉證說謊的依據是什麽呢? -Oneshotkill- 給 Oneshotkill 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 13:50:51

燈有亮。前兩次“修好”後,上車幾分鍾就亮燈,抖停在高速上了。 -水煮蛙- 給 水煮蛙 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 14:17:31

關鍵是他們“修好”後竟然沒有查一下電腦code,害我險些死這高速上 -水煮蛙- 給 水煮蛙 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 15:49:20

我想你誤會了.修完車以後把燈滅了,裏麵的code是舊的錯誤,要等新問題出來才會有新的code.同樣的問題會再出同樣的code -jin_yin_hua- 給 jin_yin_hua 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 16:38:11

我覺得樓主的意思是修好了以後,修車鋪應該再讀一次code,而不是讀了三個codes 隻修一個. -jin_yin_hua- 給 jin_yin_hua 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 22:57:50

這個就是麻煩的地方,如果他們說,第一個的確壞了;換了以後,發現第二個也壞了,修了以後才發現,第三個也壞了。 -dongbeiren56- 給 dongbeiren56 發送悄悄話 (159 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 15:56:00

你現在還是可以通過信用卡, 拒絕付款。關鍵是有沒有證據證明店家作假。修車像看病, 有時要過程。 -PrimeryColor- 給 PrimeryColor 發送悄悄話 (67 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 13:59:27

有證據嗎? 比如換下的零件, 沒有必要, 沒有服務就收錢? -PrimeryColor- 給 PrimeryColor 發送悄悄話 (0 bytes) () 09/05/2019 postreply 14:12:07
