GRN96WS6 Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Wow I'd be PISSED! I hope you don't let them try for round #4. I'd say get your money back and let someone who is able to build you an engine build it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Posted April 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 yeah I want the money back and Ill go to FOX LAKE fuck houston... Im ready to just go off. Mike that put it back together for me is pissed too.

Buck531 Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Holy hell, that sucks. Sounds like something a local company here that deals with 3.8's would do. graemlins/nonono.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Abuse Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Originally posted by aftermidnight: sorry to hear that....that is for sure lawsuit territory if they try and bullshit around...provided they didnt specify a break in period. With aftermarket shops you need clear and utterly obvious proof that they fucked something up, and even then you're not legaly garaunteed to get your money back. Any refunds granted are usualy to keep people from spreading bad press. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjeosu27 Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Don't send it back to Houston, just get your money back. There are plenty of shops locally that could put your car back together. If you send it back to Houston and get fucked again, it's your own fault. Sorry to hear about the car, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Posted April 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 well they have fixed (fucked i should say) everything up every time they fix it... but I am asking for my money back..

Vulcan900 Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Sorry to hear this, that always sucks getting your car back only to have it mess up, 3 times. I couldnt even imagine. Good luck with your lawsuit, its never easy getting someone to admit they were wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Posted April 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 thank you Eric I really appreciate it! Im just so upset I was looking forward to this day for 10 months! :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civicboy375 Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 I agree with the lawsuit. That is unbelievabily fucked up, it's hard to even imagine. I'm sorry Amy. Hopefully you'll get more money back with the lawsuit than what you spent on the engine. Good luck with it and I agree, I sure wouldn't trust houston to "fix" it when all it seems there good for is "fucking" things up every time.

Veritas Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 with the cash and time you've put into this thing, slap a regular motor into it and get yourself into a cobra or something that's a decent platform to work with:/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaSSon Posted April 11, 2005 Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Damn Amy, you just can't catch a break with your car. I'm also going to take this opportunity to move this to the consumer reports section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
