I brought my 1999 GMC Sonoma to Monro Muffler to have the U-Joints replaced. After the work was done I noticed a slight vibration when I drove. I took the truck to a GMC dealership to have it looked at, they informed of the following.

When Monro Muffler replaced my U-joints they placed the drive shaft in a vise and squished it. They also used a torch on the aluminum shaft partially melting it, all of this caused the shaft to go out of balance, resulting in the vibration when I drove. I had to have the drive shaft replaced. $$$$$.

I went to the Munro Muffler shop which did the work and caused the damage, they agreed to pay for the parts and labor of the new drive shaft and to refund the cost of the U-joint replacement. I filled out paper work and the Manager, Tim Pollock, said I would have a check in a couple of weeks. Four months later and several the check is in the mail promises and still I wait.

#5 Author of original report

Thank You Terry

Terry is correct, I did receive the check over night after he and I spoke, Thank You. Terry and Monro Muffler have taken steps to make a bad situation right.

If the store manager, Tim Pollock, would have followed up on my problems I am sure it would have never escalated to this point.

Jeffrey is correct

Jeffrey is correct, we did indeed mess up in regards to his repair. I do need to clarify what happened with his check.

We did mail a refund to him on 5/28/2004 for the amount agreed upon. Unfortunately, we did not have the correct address, and the check was returned to us by the post office.

Upon reading the complaint above, we were able to track Jeffrey down, get his proper address and overnight the check to him. He received it yesterday afternoon, 7/27/2004.

Yea, Jeffrey is right, we do make an occasional mistake. We do however stand behind our work and make things right when these things happen.
