All-Type Transmission, Etobicoke, ON

WORST SERVICE EXPERIENCE ever! I left there my Subaru to have a rear wheel bearings replacement done - the bearings got very noisy recently. Mechanic named DANNY. Estimate was $1000. OK, just do it right. Soon I received a phone call from him that the ABS will stop work because sensor wires must be cut. Not very professional fix, but I reluctantly agreed: can be fixed later. Just do the job. The next day the job was allegedly done. I paid 1K with debit card without a previous test drive (big mistake, but don't we do so usually at decent shops?), and tried to drive away. I found the car in WORSE CONDITION than before: first 2 gears very hard to get into, with great engine effort at high rpms, very untypical clutch slipping, persistent grinding noises from rear axle, and a few other symptoms. Basically ruined. Either the bearings replacement job was totally botched, or there was some unsolicited tinkering with clutch/transmission. Or both. I returned immediately asking for an explanation and was met with total denial of any responsibility: he refused to test-drive the car with me (of course he knew how it can go), refused to give me an invoice, and pretended that the only problem is an aging clutch. Total lie: the clutch worked ideally the day before and was relatively new. He did not forget to accept the payment, as I mentioned. General attitude presented: and what can you do to me? Whether it looks and sounds like a rip-off or a robbery - make your own judgement. I've seen things before, but this was really surprising. The only civilized way to deal with such situation seems to me to get diagnostics done at a normal car service shop and submit an official complaint with an appropriate bureau. Conclusion: Be warned. Imagine yourself treated this way and make your own opinion about service from "All-Type Transmission" shop. All they can do right is $50 oil change. Btw. some positive reviews of this business I read are strangely similar in language and style - I wonder why...?
