Overall
vehicle destroyed by gross negligent act

I took my vehicle into this bellflower smog check at 9250 artesia blvd.,bellflower, ca

90706 on november 10,2010. I knew the older spanish guy with the mustache wilfredo from norwalk previous where they moved from to bellflower recently. This guy likes to drink as much whiskey and tequila he can hold and work at the same time. He told me so on many occasions but took it lightly until recently when i visited their new shop in bellflower to get a test only smog check. my van was nice when i brought it to him but wilfredo and the other guy there kept saying many cars fail and they refer them to the CA BAR (consumer affairs) to retire their vehicles. Again, I thought nothing of it except to notice this guy seemed "lit" on booze and the older guy testing my car was some kind of "stroke" patient or some other crippling disease that affects both his body and brain. I should have known better but was into the testing "which took forever due to their slowness and what appeared gross incompetence. they kept my vehicle too long and harshly on the rollers to test and my vehicle began to overheat. i shouted to turn it off that they wer ruining my car. They paid no attention and kept it running while my radiator burst and boiled over a lot!!!! They said I failed the smog check and could sell my car to the BAR. He jokede and gave me extra water and container to take on my way home. two days later while checking my oil in my vehicle I discovered my worst fear and nightmare from this experience. They had "BLOWN MY HEADGASKET" and now have "WATER" in my "OIL"!!!! that sucks so now I must be reimbursed from this sloppiness; but it sucks I now have no vehicle!!! NEVER<NEVER NEVER EVER" take your car to this smog check if u value your wheels and need a car!!

this matter was taken to small civil claims court in bellflower and this person lost the case. the van was a decrepit old van that smelled terrible and like most old vans with high mileage and lack of car care and engine care failed terribly. I remember this man because he had a child about 9 years and the child was not in school, I won the case because the judge caught this customer in a lie, we had a videotape and it proved our case. This customer wanted to have us pay $3,000 or threatened to sue, I instead went to court and we won. Our family owned business never had a issue or complaint in our 6 years, if anything we are customer friendly and treat&quot; new and returning customers with respect. priority.
