Nightmotorsport LLC Istvan Klag I was scammed $2000 just for a bad wire that needed to be replaced and mislead and false advertisement Bloomington California

So I first heard about this company Nightmotorsports LLC through the online Subaru forums. I seen that it was a new shop and the shop owner was friendly via messages on Facebook. Nightmotorsports posted a deal where it includes a package of engine internals. So the first thing I did, is I messages him due to my car needing a rebuild on the engine. He stated that if I wanted the package it'll be $3200. So, due to that fitting my budget I took my car into Nightmotorsports and I felt really comfortable leaving my car there as his pitch made me feel as my car was going to be in good hands and taken care of for that price.

That same day I left a deposit of $1000 on 10/4/14. He stated in order to see what's the issue on the engine, we would first need to take the engine apart. He stated he will do that in about a week. I said ok. I went a week after to see if anything has been done with the car, he stated that he's been pretty busy and has one car in front of me. I said ok I understand and did another deposit of $1000 on 10/17/2014. I then feel that i won't be able to pay him in full before 11/1/14 so I advise him to schedule himself finishing the car by 11/15/14 due to that being my payday. I then receive a call from him advising me that he found some melted wires underneath the dashboard. In order to make the cluster work properly, he would need to replace them. He said he has a electrician that can come and have it replaced, I then tell him I really can't afford any further expensive work. He then said it's ok I'll do it myself and save you some funds. I said ok but only if it's cheap replace it. I then get frustrated on 11/5/14 due to me feeling like nothing has been done with my car.  He says the wiring "will be compete , I just need to do the engine work" on 11/5/14. I said ok I'll have the rest of the funds which is $1200 by 11/15/14 so I was hoping my car will be done before thanksgiving. I send him a message on 11/6/14 advising him if he could show me a picture or some type of proof that I had a melted wire, he stated it went with the trash this morning. I then head out to the shop to see what going on with my car on 11/15/14 and my car was parked outside and it had a big scratch on my drivers side door. I then call Stevan to see where he was at as the shop was closed but the shops hours states he is open on Saturday.

So he arrives and I sit down to talk about my car with Stevan. He looked a little disturbed as his Shop car had caught on fire the day before. He then states right now we are even.i deposited another 1000 on 11/15/14. I was confused as what he meant by that. He stated that the $2000 that I had deposited for my engine build went to the labor and part to fix the bad wiring underneath the dashboard. So I'm still confused. He stated that 1250 was for the part, and 750 was for the labor. He stated if I wanted to get started on my engine build, it'll be $3200 plus $2000 labor to start working on my car which would total to 7200 spent! I then just felt robbed as the funds going to my engine built went to some overprice simple wiring. He then stated to finish my car it'll take another month. So I was really upset. I then leave and tell him that I am going to cancel the rebuild. He then allowed me to pick up my car that day. He refunded 1000 that I deposited that  exact day. I then tell him about he damages on my car and tell him my car was just painted a month ago. He stated " your car has always been in the shop, today was the only day it was outside". He then walks back in the shop.

I felt scammed. I then send him a message with pictures of my car when I dropped it off as proof that the door damage was never there. He stated we will accept the fault and will paint it but you have to bring it to our shop. I then said ok. I felt really scammed about the wiring being replaced as he never kept the original part and as he doesn't want to provide me a receipt of the part. So I take it to a local shop to have professionals take the dashboard apart to locate the brand new wiring that cost me 2000 in total including labor. Everything was still dusty underneath as if nothing was done. I just want my $2000 back as nothing was done to my car. I paid with my debit card
