Sunoco Gas Station

We had a slow leaking tire. We stopped in to just have it checked and they were able to fix the leak and had us going very quickly. Very nice and competent.

While visiting Williamstown, my ailing car refused to start. The dealer I bought it from was a friend, willing to fix it or take it back. I had the car towed to Carpinello's, having been told it was a family-run repair shop. I explained that I'd like to get it running if possible but by no means wanted to undertake expensive repairs. When they failed to get in touch with me in the course of the day, I went to the shop and stayed in the waiting room for several hours to make sure I was available to discuss the work, but I never got more than vague reports about what was up and never had the chance to speak with the mechanic directly. In fact they simply replaced parts until they found what was wrong, and presented me a bill nearly three times what I had set as a maximum. When I protested, the owner was rude, vulgar, and ultimately threatening--said he would yank the new parts out of the car and leave me push it off his property. With no idea what to do (I've never had so unpleasant an experience with a merchant) I called the local police. The officer I spoke with told me that the shop had a bad reputation and suggested another garage. Ultimately I signed the car over to them rather than pay the bill, which was more than what I had paid for the car. In a final indication of the ethics of the operation, the owner's wife said as I filled out the paperwork that the good news was they wouldn't have to disclose to a potential buyer that the car failed emissions because of the way they obtained it. I don't go around trashing people--I think this is the only bad on-line review I've ever written--but I've never been so badly treated by a business. This happened some time ago, but the management is still the same.
