Meineke Takes advantage of consumers dishonest ripoffs Palm Harbor Florida
I needed to have new brake pads put on my 1998 VW Beetle. They ended up charging me $530.00 (which also included a new front rotor). As soon as I started driving the car home, the brakes were still making the same grinding noise it was previously making.
I took the car back, and while I was in the office waiting, they apparently greased the pads so that when I took a drive with the mechanic, the car wasn't making the noise anymore(I figured that one out when I got home and looked at the wheels there was red grease all over the place). Guess what happened a couple hours later???? Grinding,again.
So now I am $530.00 in the hole. I know I got ripped off, I just want my car fixed. I have never done anything to them, so why are they doing this to me?

Took back the car today. Things were finally explained to me about the brakes. The grinding noise is normal for about the first 1000 miles. This was not explained to me before. If it was, I would of never made a report. I would use their services again.
