    This is too funny!

    We have a car that came in which was just checked out at Pep Boys. The receipt has this warning on the top

    I bet they are having a ton of issues with wheels falling off after service from their super highly qualified technicians. So if you don't return for a retorque they are not liable? I don't think so

    I usually go thru the back door at walmart thru the sevice bay area, I just start laughing when I see how much folks trust them with their vehicles, Looks like i now have to fix the heater door in my 95 ranger just for laughs I asked my ford dealer 800-900 dollars The oem motor is 78.00 at oreilly and I can get at it thru the glove box. You need to make up a long list like that Mitch that is really hilarious. Sir you need to sign here to show that you declined your declines.

      They must have quoted you for the plenum assy, which comes with the door and not just the door motor

      If you plan to hang a motor on it without mounting it on the plenum to see if it moves, do not let it go from stop to stop as it will screw it up. They are designed to only move the amount of the door travel FYI

      Thanks for that did not know that but I would have mounted it then try it however first I will check to see if it is getting power and not a blown fuse.

    How about putting on your big boy pants and accept you get what you pay for!

    A fellow took his leased SUV to a fast lube place where a disinterested employee used an impact gun to tighten (strip) the oil pan drain plug. Same talent added ATF to 'top off' the brake master cylinder.

    Many hundreds of dollars later spent with a dealer, the fellow had brakes again..

      How true you know these people have no experience or they would not be working there for what they are paid.

    We ended up doing all the work for a 100 dollars less, and they won't have to come back for a re torque or worry about their P/S pump falling off:rolling

      The tire store where I used to live must have used a 3/4 impact gun to tighten the lug nuts.
      They were near impossible to loosen and more than a few people had their studs snap off within a few miles after leaving the place.

            Thanks again Mitch this little truck has not hit 100,000 yet and so far I have only put a timing belt and water pump on it. It is only two wheel drive but flat gets around in the snow with a little weight in back. Those diagrams are a really big help like to know what I am doing before I start. I can also talk to my buddy who works on foreign cars as you know this thing and the mazda b2300 are the same vehicle.
