I received a call yesterday from a gentleman who had a problem with his F150. He was having issues with some overheating and some oil loss. His initial thought was that he had blown the head gasket, and took it somewhere else to be checked out. I am almost certain that he told the other repair facility his thoughts, and behold, they tried to sell him head gasket service. This is a very costly repair once you factor everything in like the machine service and all of the other parts required to do the job correctly. Unhappy with the estimate he received, he called us for a quote on a head gasket service, and we gave him the price and told him that we would have to verify the findings.
Upon completing the diagnostic service, it was painfully apparent that there was nothing wrong with the head gasket at all. He had a severe oil leak and a bad cooling fan. No major repairs required.
He was shocked to hear the conclusion that we came up with. He was shocked that another shop was trying to scam him.
It is way to common. It is never a bad idea to have a second opinion on a vehicle if you are not working with someone that you can trust. Not having trust behind you can cost you a lot of extra money.
