It could be that it swam. Flash flooding has been a problem in some parts of Abuja.

That said, I am not in support of the autoshop neither am I berating them. We all know Nigerians love cheapskates.

This makes a lot of sense.

And the whole essence of the complaint does not even make much sense. If Honda place wan collect 100m, simply collect your motor and give baba Kamila

Maybe they replaced his iron made wheels with Chrome Wheels. Chrome wheels are actually the most expensive single part of cars that rappers use.

That's why Nigeria is not moving forward. . Everybody trying hard to cheat and exploit another. .

But we are the first arrive at churches and mosques.

This is not cheating. It's just a tactic those dealerships use when they know the problem of ur car is bigger than what they can repair. So they give u s very huge bill. They would give u a list to change virtually everything on the car, like using a rocket launcher to kill a cockroach. They know u cannot pay, and if u eventually decide to pay the car must work with all those things they listed.

I once took an eod to Honda place Lagos for brake problems, the master brake was bad and abs light was on. After scanning u need to see the list they gave me. After billing for the brake job, they still put in their list that I would change the 4 abs sensors, the abs actuator, ecu and several other things that are not even related. And they charge the price for OEM parts which are not cheap. Na jejeley I took my car to roadside mechanic that fixed it for fraction of the price.

That is actually close to how dealerships charge in the states. Or what makes u think whenever their cars have a little problem over there they sell it off at auction. It's because repair cost is more than car's value

Really? Dealers in the states will charge you USD40k to fix a usd25k car? Haba! A typical dealer in Houston will charge 4 - 5k (1.8 million) at most for the outlined repairs.

Guy can you snap the car engine and fuse box plus the connection to the brain box(ECU) so that they will see why they gave you the estimate??

Maybe he press them to give him the estimate.
And this car self na another thing
