taysgrl7 -> Have I been scammed? (10/17/2007 11:58:10 PM)
|
I'm a new member, but am hoping someone can help me. My car was stuck in park (brake wasn't registering I stepping on it, wouldn't disengage from park). Took it to my regular Mom & Pop shop, they told me I needed a new SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID (a $500 repair). In desperate need of my car, I said go ahead with the repair. A couple weeks later, I'm stuck in park again. The shop now says its the BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH (a $45 repair). I am perterbed at this point, because I now come to find out that there was the big brake light switch recall, and feel the shop duped me. They said that one may have caused the other to break and cause the stuck in park issue, but I am not buying it. I am a nurse, not a mechanic and was hoping to hear if I should dispute the original shift lock solenoid repair, or if it is possible that the 2 could have been related. Any information is greatly appreciated and thanks for reading & take care. ~Amy
