{"text":"So love's charged me 7 hours to r and r my radiator,  when it only took them 3.88 hrs.  I questioned it, they told me that, that is what the book hours are, the tech even showed me the screen.  I questioned it again, tech told me that they are to charge what the actual book hours quotes!!. Also said that any shop does that, I sternly disagreed.   So basically,  Love's stole $330 from me.","videos":"[]","link":"{}","pics":"[]","canComment":true,"externalShare":false}

{"replyTo":"","text":"I like to go by the book. This way if a shop tries to charge 20 hours for a 10 hour job you have a good case for lowering the cost. Shops have to earn money to exist and lord knows I ain’t doing it. I say charge me extra because I’m not a mechanic but if I was I’d run circles around most and have a gigantic snap on tool box with a neked lady calendar 📅 😂","replyToPid":0}

688983 发表于 2020-01-07 00:59:31 Maybe they had to people working on it @ 3.88 hours . That works out to 7.96 hours.  If look at that way you got a deal. \nMaybe next time you should ask for a quote first.

","text":"I know things can be done faster than the book says. But for them to charge you full price for a job they are able to do faster is wrong. That tech got 3hrs for doing nothing and was able to start a new job to boot. I might have tried to disappear for another 3 hrs to hold the bay. You payed for it. ","replyToPid":299142}

{"replyTo":"","text":"It sûcks but very true all shops have a list of repairs at certain hours. If they do it faster great you done earlier. If you done after that time they don’t charge you for the extra time. ","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"Then it should have took 7 hrs. They cut corners and must not have done it according to the book!!","replyToPid":0}
