210 Motorsports

Let me know if you would be interested in getting the media involved. We are about to talk to KENS, KSAT, WOAI and anyone else that wants to do a prime-time story on this "shop".

Same here. this crook has strung us along for 6 months and still nothing.

The sad part is if we went to get the vehicle it is destroyed.

They tossed old tires in the back, left the windows down in all of the rain that we have had, and all the lights and trim is removed with a terrible primer job with old weathered masking tape all over it. I will definitely get involved with the media also.

I think that the responses from Vincent and his girlfriend are absolutely hilarious in the aspect that they assume no responsibility for anything yet there are other customers that say the same thing about his shop! I had the funds to pay for the car, after all I was not the one having a hard time even paying my phone bill especially for a supposed business that I was trying to run!

There are countless times that Vincent's phone was disconnected during all of this. My car was sitting at another shop 1 day before Vincent went to pick up it up and I have documents proving this! The only reason it was there for one day is because he was not able to have it towed until the following day. The money was never the issue or else I would have never paid the $400 in cash the day we were supposed to get the car!

Once we paid the $400 in cash and got in the car to drive it off is when WE (not that Vincent had the decency to let us know before hand) found out that the car wouldn't even start. Then and only then did he give us the list of other problems with the car! I have pictures of the damage to the car where you can see that it was gutted. Even when we got the keys back to the car there were parts taken from under the hood and the insides were completely torn apart.

Regardless this is over and done but NEVER would I ever recommend anyone to use this shop!

He is a definitely a thief! And apparently a liar as well!

Correction I was there during this time. And during the time we loaned you a vehicle.

Bottom line is you didn't have the funds to repair your car. We do not work for free. We don't have problems with customers who come to our facility to get there vehicles repaired, and try to work out deals or payment arrangements.

We are not a bank giving out loans. That why you had problems at the shop you had the vehicle at before us!

Well we have had NOTHING BUT problems dealing with Vincent and you. We paid for the work and still our job got pushed off in the back corner of your yard.

Also at that time we were having daily downpours and the windows were left down and all the lights were removed from the sides leaving holes for the rain to leak in. It took us bringing SAPD by your "shop" before you would do anything. We were promised that it would be tarped to stop any further water damage, but nothing was done. Then all that you did was move it out of the yard to the front of the building, but never worked on it.

After we filed the police report we were supposed to get weekly progress reports....nothing. It was supposed to be completed by July 1, 2016......nothing.

Upon first contacting Vince we never once informed him that the vehicle had been at any other shop for a year. We had not even had the vehicle for a year at this point. The vehicle had been at the other shop for 1 day (a full 24 hours by the time the tow truck from Vince's shop was there to pick up the car). They had given us an estimate of $800 to replace the fuel pump and so we did decide to go with Vince's price of $350. In the 9 months that our vehicle had been at 210 Motorsports we were never, not even once, contacted by any person that worked for that shop. I would personally have to contact Vince myself and he would change his number quiet frequently. We currently have 3 different telephone number that we have acquired for Vince over the period of 9 months and there were points in time that there were no working numbers for him. When we were made aware of having to replace the part for $200 (we were never quoted $250 and even the day we went to get the keys he requested $200) we told him we would look for the part as well and we called him several times and left messages on the voicemail and with employees until eventually that number stopped working as well. We also tried to reach the shop via e-mail when I was out of town and the e-mail returned back to "unable to deliver". We also made several visits to the shop and were told by the employees that Vince was not there but that they would have him give us a call but we never heard back from him. Vince made absolutely no effort to return any calls or to make any contact with us. He would give us excuses like his girlfriends daughter was beat up by her boyfriend so he had to take time off to go handle that, he was in the hospital, he fired everyone in his shop and now it was up to him and his girlfriend, and then even he fired everyone in his shop for screwing him over even his girlfried. At the time we were told the last story Vince explained to us that the guy that was supposed to be working on our vehicle actually had not been working on it so he promised to get it in the shop and devote his attention to it. When we returned to the shop a couple weeks later the vehicle had not even moved from the spot that it was in. Upon getting the keys back from Vince we had another mechanic take a look at the car and they quoted us a minimum of $2000 just to fix the things that were taken apart in the car. Even if we had given them time to put the panels back on the panels being back on would not have made any difference to the part missing and the wires that were pulled apart. I have pictures, phone records, receipts, and other information to back up everything I have put in my claim.

If the problem was us not making contact with the shop to let Vince know that we wanted to go forward with the repairs then I feel that he would have said this to us when we stopped by his shop once a week leading up to getting our keys back. Everytime we went up there we were given another excuse of why it was not done but not one time did he say there was action that needed to be taken on our part.

At all times we had the money to pay for the repairs however we were not going to give Vince any more money until the car was fixed. We had already paid for a part that was "replace" and we were not going to give any more money until the car was released back to us.

Also I would love to see a reciept for the fuel pump that was placed in my vehicle because when the salvage yard picked up the car I was later contacted by them to inform me that the fuel pump was not brand new although I did pay for a brand new fuel pump to be put in the car.

Also ma'am I appreciate your reply however you were not even at the shop when all of this started. We did not deal with you with this situation and it make be a better argument if you were to get your information correct before replying back. I have the paperwork showing the date that car was transfered into our name and I also have paperwork from the car shop stating the dates that the vehicle was at the facility. Along with these documents as mentioned earlier I also have phone records showing both incoming and outgoing calls to show exactly how many times we contacted the shop and how the shop never once tried to contact us not even just to return our phone call.

All of what you have posted is false! About phone lines and employees..

All false! Just like earlier stated you had no money to fix the 1984 Volvo. And the car had been sitting for a long while before it entered my shop. The vehicle had multiple problems before it arrived to my shop.

And the additional money requested was for the computer which you were given the option to buy yourself, and we would have installed it for free. I didn't want your money, I wanted your vehicle out of my shop. Because you started complaining about the cost to fix it early on. If you can't afford repairs to your vehicle then don't take it to a shop and expect them to do everything free.

You were a craigslist customer looking for the big bargain. We have problems with only those customers who can't afford there repairs.

And we are not in the business to work for free. And if you are going to post things about a business on here you should try to be honest and have some integrity.

With all due respect" but the owner vincent is a THEIF!!!!

Take ur veichles else where!! Trust ive experienced everything these people have gone thru!!

How do you explain the jobs paid cash up front and car not completed. Also claiming parts are bad that are not.
