I had my head rebuilt by acura, this is after 1800kms and no vtec.


The belt wasn't even put on proper at the bottom. When I noticed I stopped driving it and put it away for the winter. As I went to start it to put it in my shelter, It made a loud barking noise and died, will not start. I think my timing belt snapped. F*ck they suck.

 

i think it is time to pay acura a visit, with your lawyer its said but it needs to be done

unless they will work with you right now then

 

if they did the work under warranty, you're good to go.

EDIT: the dealer created that mess. i was assuming the opposite due to your title. regardless, go back and talk to them and see if they're jackasses about it. most likely though, i think they'll be willing to repair the damages.

in any given dealership there are great techs and then there are parts changers that cut corners.

sorry to see such shabby work from an acura dealership....

take it back, and they'll fix it free. you just got unlucky. a lazy or shitty tech worked on your car. hope you have better luck next time.

already crying lawyer?!?! How about he just talks to them first for christ sakes.

 

wouldn't really expect any less, but I would never let a stealership do a rebuild. Sure there are a few great techs here and there, just like anywhere, but you won't always get them. My independent honda/acura mechanic woulda given you a 12 month/15,000 mile warranty on that, which i think is pretty darn good.

hope you get it fixed ASAP and they don't screw ya. threaten BBB or something.

 

the result of the monkeywrenching that goes on in that stealership

 

im sure it was a mistake. mistakes do happen you know. not all dealers/techs are morons. take it back, im sure they will fix it.

 

Its a Belt. They wont take you seriously if you threaten to sue them . Just say hey this got fucked up since you guys messed with it and they will replace it . Its a $20 part and 3 minutes of labor

Usually those people do better quality work in my experience. You just gotta find out what language to speak to them in

That poor belt

 

Damn that sucks man. They better offer you some benefits.

 

Its just not that belt that I care about, I think my timing belt broke '''';

 

does your car start? If it does, your timing belt isnt broke.

 

Dealerships suck!
