PATS AUTO REPAIR

I suspected a coolant leak into my car engine, so I checked out Pat's Auto. Pat and his crew were very friendly. A day later, Pat solemnly called me and let me know that not only did my car have a cracked engine block, which would normally cost $5,500 parts / labor, but that he researched and found out that there was a "silent recall"--where a manufacturer extends the warranty BUT WITHOUT TELLING THE PUBLIC / ITS CUSTOMERS! The manufacturer hopes nobody finds out about the warranty extension...most people end up paying for repairs to dishonest or lazy mechanics who don't reveal to customers about the silent recall. Well, Pat was honest with me and told me up front about the silent recall, knowing he would miss out on the repair job!! He easily could have just fixed my car, but he he wants to build a reputation as the best place in town. I had the dealership pick up my car and repair it, but I will not forget about Pat's honesty. I vowed to tell everybody I know about Pat's!
