BEWARE! WORST auto shop ever!

So much bad stuff happened at this shop, way to long to list it all here... yahoosearch for- gremlin payless auto Pflugerville- to view my site and read the entire story ... here's the short version:They charged 735.85 for a brake job, had the car 6 months, after 6 months the brakes were still non-functional. Then the owner Ray ran my classic 1970 Gremlin into the garage wall doing $3559.00 worth of damage and refused to take responsibility for the damages. He said it was the car's fault because the brakes didn't work (the same brakes he charged me for and claimed were fixed). He actually said he was going to sue me for the damages caused to his garage- caused by him running my car into the wall. He was very belligerent yelling and cussing at me. He wouldn't give me the keys until the cops forced him to. He said I owed him $65.00 for a consultation fee... because he had to take my car to a different mechanic's shop to figure out how to fix it (which he never got around to doing). Obviously, as a mechanic, he was totally inept... and then there's the whole wrecking my entire front end and refusing to take the blame thing. There's much more to it then what I can write here. My page includes pictures of the damage and the bill plus more info.

So for the complete story go to:

The short version:

Payless Auto Repair (Pflugerville) charged 735.85 for a brake job, had the car 6 months, after 6 months the brakes were still totally non-functional, (as in... the pedal bottoms out on the floor and doesn't stop)

Then the owner Ray, ran my classic 1979 Gremlin into the garage wall - doing several thousand dollars worth of damage... and refused to take responsibility... He said it was the car's fault because the brakes didn't work... and was belligerent as all get out yelling at me- He actually said he was going to sue me for the damage to his garage...

after he was supposed to fix the brakes... and he wrecked my car...unbelievable!



The, he wouldn't give me the keys until the cops forced him to. He said I owed him $65.00 for a consultation fee... where he had to take my car to a different mechanic's shop to figure out how to fix it (which he never got around to doing). Obviously, as a mechanic, he was totally inept... and then there's the whole wrecking my entire fromt end and refusing to take the blame thing.



Go to the website listed above to read the entire story ... there's much more to it then what I can write here. It includes pictures of the damage and the bill plus more info.

Beware of CROOK!

At first when you call they sound real nice and professional, but as soon the work is done it's a different story.Ray had done some work to my engine.He so called fixed my problem, but failed to notice that I had a valve issue also.If he was a real experienced mechanic he would have pointed out the issue with the valve and therefore giving me an option to get it fixed while he had the engine apart.He really toped it off by screwing my oil pan drain plug so tight,that I would have to take it back to him.I also had a leak that was never there before.I really recommend that you avoid this shop.If you really need a reliable shop look up MBC service station.A friend of mine led me to them and they took care of the mistakes that Payless auto had made.AVOID them at all COST(Literally)
