Consumer Description

LATE EVENING, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY IN A SNOW STORM AND SUDDENLY MY ENGINE POWER DROPPED SIGNIFICANTLY. I COULD NOT GO OVER 10 MPH AND BARELY MADE IT UP THE OFF RAMP TO BE STRANDED 3 1/2 HOURS AWAY FROM HOME. I SPENT A TOTAL OF $700 TO GET THE ALTERNATOR AND I-PULLEY REPLACED. THE OLD PART WAS NOT RETURNED OR I WOULD HAVE HAD TO PAY AN ADDITIONAL $50. *TR
