Nick J's Auto Repair Damaged My Car and Refused to Fix Their Mistake Jonesboro Georgia
Report Attachments
I am extremely disappointed with the service I received at Nick J's Auto. On July 11th, I brought my car in for an inspection after it suddenly stopped working. I paid $165 for an inspection, and the mechanic diagnosed a problem with the coolant sensor. After resetting the computer, they assured me that the car was fine and I only needed to return if the check engine light came on.
However, within three minutes of driving away, my car started smoking, and I immediately returned to the shop. They then diagnosed a corroded radiator cap as the issue and added more antifreeze. Upon returning home, I noticed coolant spraying from the side of the radiator coolant overflow bottle, which was not an issue before my visit. The overflow bottle cap was not secured properly, leading to the threading on the radiator coolant overflow bottle being freshly melted and causing a new hole and coolant leakage.
When I returned to Nick J's Auto, they denied any responsibility for the damage caused during their service. This experience has left me with a damaged vehicle and additional repair costs that I should not have to bear.
Under the Georgia Fair Business Practices Act (FBPA) and the Georgia Motor Vehicle Repair Act, businesses are required to perform work in a workmanlike manner and are responsible for any damage caused during repairs. Nick J's Auto failed to adhere to these standards, and their refusal to take accountability is unacceptable.
I strongly advise against using Nick J's Auto for any vehicle repairs or inspections. Their incompetence and lack of responsibility have cost me time, money, and peace of mind. Save yourself the trouble and find a reputable and reliable mechanic elsewhere.
