Mechanic Shares How An Auto Repair Shop Scammed A Woman Out Of $1,000 For Repairs
by Matthew Gilligan
Will it ever end?!?!
I’m talking about mechanics trying to rip off customers who just want to get their cars fixed as easily and cheaply as possible.
But this story has a bit of a twist, because the person who posted it happens to be a mechanic. His name is Menji and he demonstrated to TikTok viewers how a woman was ripped off by another auto repair shop to the tune of $1,000 when her Audi was having issues.
Menji showed viewers that the woman was charged $1,087.43 to fix the issue with her Audi.
Menji popped the hood of her car and noticed that the car’s coolant reservoir was empty because of a leak and the cap to the reservoir was damaged.
Menji replaced the reservoir tank and the lid and filled it up with coolant.
The easy fix cost the woman $150.99.
That’s pretty nice compared to more than $1,000, don’t you think…?
Let’s take a look at the video.
