5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, April 4, 2006
It not only names the well known auto repair shop chains that have been ripping us off, but tells how much money those co's. have been fined by the courts for fraud.

This book details the type of rip-offs and tricks that these mechanics use on us. No doubt, you'll probably recognize some of them.

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, not worth the paper its printed on., June 30, 2001
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: What Auto Mechanics Don't Want You to Know (Paperback)
Terrible. I had to get a brake job done. Went to the store and was told that I needed to get my rotors ground down and perhaps replaced. I declined, and just got the pads replaced. However, this is the second time this has been told to me. So I was curious if this was a scam, which I suspected it was.

I looked around for a book, and found this one.

I got it, full of generalities, no specifics. Just "beware." Not, the "top ten scams are..." Just no specifics. Just garbage. I wouldn't recommend this book for a door stop. Its not even that thick.

Don't waste your money.
