If anyone here is from the Pittsburgh area, don't get your car serviced at Langston Subaru...


I bought my car there a few years ago, and about 50% when I go in for a problem, I end up getting screwed. Most recently, I had my clutch replaced last summer (under warranty). For the past eight months, some weird stuff has been happening with my car, such as the gas light coming on at 1/2 tank. Most recently, for the past month or so, it has been running badly (stalling at red lights, slow starts, etc.). I finally figured out what it was. Those idiots forgot to reconnect the grounding strap to the starter after they replaced the clutch! I've spent ~$300 to try and figure out the problem, and now I want them to reimburse me, but I have a feeling that is going to be a fight.

P.S. The car also runs fine now. I can't get over how dumb some people are!

 

It's probably just one bad mechanic... I'd look at the paperwork and see who the tech was that worked on it. You might find that he's been fired and works at the next shop you bring your car to =)
