    I asked the guy at the front desk how much a diagnostic would be and how much their hourly labour rate is. He informed me it would be 110$ plus tax to run the diagnostic which I found weird as to why a 30 min. diagnostic would cost that much (assuming it would be 220$ for their hourly labour rate). After I dropped the car off, I got my friend that is a guy to call in and ask how much it would be for a diagnostic and their hourly labour rate. The master mechanic employee then proceeded to inform him that it would be 50$ for a diagnostic and 109$ for their hourly labour rate. I dropped my car off at 12pm and did not receive a call about any updates on my car so I decided to call them at 4:30 (an hour and a half before they close) and they told me I needed three different repairs done to my car and how one of the parts (throttle body) would be 500-600$ (meanwhile the part costs 380$). They kept my car overnight and I picked it up this morning. When I came to pick up the car this morning around 9am, I asked if anyone had drove my car because it had been unlocked and he said that no. So my car was unlocked all night on **************** (if you live in peterborough, you know this is a bad street to leave your car unlocked especially all night!!!). Just absolutely unacceptable. If you're a young women, I would not go here because these guys will take complete advantage and price ***** the c*** out of you. When I voiced my concerns to the guy at the front desk about this price gouging - he took no responsibility, never apologized, nor took any accountability and tried acting like I was crazy for even mentioning it. Tried to hush me up saying I didn't have to pay for diagnostic that they did. That to me screams shady and guilty. My experience with this shop was terrible. I did not feel heard (didn't know asking to lock my car and not price ***** was too much to ask for but clearly it is). Waste of time and disgusting behaviour. I'm writing this for the young girls.
