Jatco Service Center

I will never go to this service center again after being totally ripped off. The owner is very unscrupulous. My vehicle was not shifting gears properly and would hardly run. He looked at it and said it just needed a tune up. I figured ok, that’s all fine, it probably does, so had him do the work. Afterward he billed me $ 650!!! He charged $ 100 for spark plugs that only cost $ 30, $ 100 for a distributor cap! Everything he did probably took less than an hour but he charged by the book, and added up the individual times, and didn’t charge labor for actual time it took. But all that isn’t even the worst part, he then told me that it needed a catalytic converter, which he couldn’t replace, but he would tow me to have it fixed. Of course I refused his towing service! It didn’t need a tune up after all, it was a bad converter which he couldn’t even fix!!! What a jerk and a charlatan!!! AVOID THIS PLACE! BTW, I asked around and other reputable service centers quoted me around $ 250 for the same work. I should have sued, but it’s been a few years ago now and I didn’t think of it at the time.
