Thank you for letting us know. We have reached out to you today to resolve this issue. We strive to complete every service in a timely manor, do to the large volume of vehicles we service each month this is completely out of character for us.

We appreciate your point of view. We shared with you during your original visit when we quoted to you a used motor that you had a code for your cats. We cleared the codes as a curtesy, a month later you returned same issue, you declined the repair twice. Our reputation speaks for itself we repair hundreds of vehicles each month with zero issues. We are pleased you are not having an issue with our repair.

Here's what I'll do, I'll meet you halfway. I admit to being wrong in not having the exhaust manifold replaced. The exhaust manifold wound up getting replaced when an aftermarket repair shop advised me that the catalytic converter was causing back pressure in the engine, probably because it was filled with oil from the bad engine. Now your turn: 1) Explain how 4 months waiting on a repair is not an issue? 2) ALM did not disclose the use of a remanufactured engine. I challenge ALM to produce evidence that they provided a written quote stating "replace bad engine with a remanufactured engine". 3) Lack of full disclosure to what is being done in the engine repair. ALM did not advise what parts would be reused off of the original engine. Only on the third service visit, did they identify reused parts and that was because these reused parts were now showing fault codes. 3) Misdiagnosis or failure to correct an identified problem. The technician identified a bad #3 plug in the original engine diagnosis. But at no point, despite three visits, was the bad plug replaced or recommended to be replaced. So, either the technician didn't really find a bad plug, or the technician forgot to install a new plug when the engine was replaced.
