I feel that I was i ovrr chatged for them just to just look at mt vehicle 547.00$and not to fix anything
Hi Loren, Thank you for your feedback. We understand that receiving a bill without having a completed repair can be frustrating, and we appreciate the opportunity to provide some context. When you brought your Subaru to us, the concern was a significant engine noise that appeared to be coming from inside the engine. Because the engine had recently been replaced and the source of the noise could not be determined through a visual inspection alone, we discussed the need for additional diagnostic disassembly to identify the cause of the problem. This process was explained and approved before any work was performed. During our inspection, we found that internal engine components had become dislodged, causing damage within the engine, including damage to the camshaft and metal contamination in the oil. While this was not the outcome anyone hoped for, the diagnostic work provided a definitive answer regarding the source of the noise and the condition of the engine. Through the diagnostic process, we were able to identify the source of the engine noise and uncover the internal damage that had occurred. While the findings were more extensive than anyone hoped, the inspection provided a clear understanding of the engine's condition and what would be required moving forward. We provided our findings and recommendations, and the next steps were ultimately left in your hands. We understand how frustrating it can be to invest in diagnosing a problem only to learn that the issue is more extensive than anticipated. While we're sorry the outcome wasn't better, we hope the information we provided helped bring clarity to the condition of the engine and your available options. Thank you for allowing us to inspect the vehicle, and we wish you the very best moving forward. - The Oswald Service and Repair Team
