Meineke Car Care - Charlestown Indiana Destroyed transmission doing "routine" service Charlestown Indiana
I took my vehicle in to Meineke because of a loud knocking sound coming from the rear of the vehicle. I was told that they needed to replace the two front tires, do a service on the rear differential and perform a transmission service.
Two - three weeks after getting my vehicle back the engine started smoking. I pulled into a parking lot and had it towed to Meineke. They called and told me that the transmission was totally shot and they could not even shift it into gear.
Up to that point there were no tell-tale signs of the transmission going out (I know because I've had multiple transmissions fail on me over the years). Meineke swore up and down that they did nothing wrong and that there transmission service could not have possibly caused the problem. BUT... they gave me over $300 basically to go away. Have you ever heard of someone giving you money when they've done nothing wrong!
To top it all off, when I got my car back the battery was stone cold dead. So dead that the keyfab could unlock the doors. Some idiot must have left a light on in the car - probably the same one that didn't do anything wrong to my trans!
