Brake Job Review
Here is my truth regarding the Aamco in Olympia, WA. About 4 months ago, I did an AmazonLocal coupon special for brakes on a 2001 truck. Now this special says they will replace the pads and turn the rotors for under $59.00. * $59 ($471 value) for a brake service package * Package includes front or rear brake pads, resurfacing of rotors, and brake flush * Keep your car in safe condition * Certified technicians * Latest diagnostic technology Sound too good to be true, it was. Upon inspection, Aamco reported that new calipers were required, along with new drums. While I argued against replacing unnecessary part, and stated only replace them if needed, in the end they replaced EVERYTHING possible. My $59 package, worth $471 cost me $443.03 total. Of course I could not get old calipers, they said were core. While arguing with the person on the phone, he insisted they do not make much on parts. On checking on the parts from ORiely autoparts, they made $229 on the parts. Now here is where the story gets interesting. Last month, I had a car my 16 year old daughter was to use that had a brake problem, and I wanted to use these dang coupons because I am a frugal/cheap person. So this time, before taking the car to Aamco, I had a brake inspection done by two other shops, Walt's and Les Scwab. They both inspected and recommended a rear drum brake job, drums,cyclinder, and said the master cylinder needed replacing, both said the front brakes were fine. They both were in agreement on the work that needed to be done. I take it to Aamco, with my $39 coupon ($505 value) in hand, https://www.groupon.com/biz/olympia-wa/aamco-of-olympia ready to get my deal. I knew I would have pay extra for the master cylinder, but I was prepared for that. After Aamco inspected my car, they stated both front and back need new calipers, rotors/drums , master cylinder and even added that the brake booster was bad (another $250 item + 1.4 labor), that was totally unnecessary.

Transmission
I was lied to 5 times on one repair. I brought my Dodge van in for a tranny repair for the 5th time. It goes out about every 20k. I told Damien the last time I dropped it off I had to wait 2 weeks to get it back. He said no way 2 days tops. First lie. So I called to see if it was ready he says no Ive been trying to get a hold of you to sign a paper.Second lie. They hadnt even started to work on it yet. He says I need you to sign a paper so I can start work and as soon as you do it will be done next day. Third lie. So I go down to sign paper and he said yep Ill have it to ya in 3 days.Forth lie. I said what you said one. Well its a hard torque converter to locate. Fifth lie. I call 3 days later. He says it will be one more day and laughs. We will see what happens tomorrow when I call. I guess Im low man on the totem pole because its a warranty claim and doesnt pay alot.
