I have been doing business with auto tech and body for about two years. Never had any complants untill now I brought my PT cruiser in It started to smoke from the exhaust and coming from the bottom of the engine some noise, but the engine was runing after a lound bang of some sort the noise stoped, but the engine was still going it just didn't have much of the turbo power I had it towed in 3/24/11 the next day I spoke to dan who is new there he told me that my turbo was shot but he checked out the engine and everthing else was good. The next day he calls me and tells me there is no compression at all and that I need a new engine that was $6000 and $2500 for the turbo I told them to hold off for now that i will call them in a few days I called some places I could get a new engine from chrysler and turbo for 5400 complete installed and the one the could get for $6000 was a reman one. I spoke to the owner Jay and he said he would work with me that he valued my business and me as a customer. then they called me and told me it was my crank shaft and that there was no way of getting around not putting in an engine. well by now I was at the point that I didn't trust this new mechanic Dan I had my car towed to my house where my friend who is a mechanic checked out my car. my battery was totally dead. we also noticed other problems. when my friend looked at my car we found hoses not connected, things not put back right, bolts not tighten, the coolant lines were by passed and the over flow was completly empty, 3 broken motor mounts that were pryed apart with a crowbar, a heat sheild that was bent and many other problems. I was told then that it definitly was not my engine but the turbo. I also brought the car to pep boys and they did a total diagnostic check and comfirmed what the other mechanic said that it was my turbo not the engine and that the motor mounts were not broken by normal wesr and tear that they were broken with a bar. and that the engine was running fine. On 3/4/11 I called Jay and told him this his answer was Ive got it what ever that means I told him I am saving all the broken parts and I also took photos of all the damage done to my car. I also told him something has to be done about this How can you trust someone like this anymoer I even brought them business throughout the time prior to this they wanted over $8500 to fix my car when it's only going to cost me about $1500 plus what ever it will cost to fix what they broke which s not really known yet but as of now at lest $1500 probally up to $2000 or more
