Run, don't walk away from this place. I came for a vehicle inspection. I failed as they said my front brakes needed replacing at a cost of $1300. They also wanted $200 to remove front seat window ting and $50 for wiper blades. I was suspect about the brakes as I had replaced them 18 months ago, and the wipers were 4 months old. I declined the repairs and took the car to GMC dealer down the street and they quoted me $900 to replace the front brakes. Get that, the DEALER was less expensive.
I then took the vehicle to another mechanic who said $757. I took the car there. An hour later they called and said the brake pads are thick (nothing wrong with them). Mechanic asked for the failed state inspect report from AMPM but I told them they didn't give me one, just an invoice for inspection and estimate for the failed items. He said they should have given me a failed report that should have had the measurements of the alleged failed brake pads.
The mechanic suggested having them do another inspection (which presumably would pass and be less than putting on unnecessary new brakes). I said go ahead. Guess what? The car passed as the wipers only needed cleaning and I had already removed the tint and there was no problem with the brakes.
I am filing a complaint with the state as AMPM is a disgraceful, low-life business that is running a scam on Maryland drivers. Stay away from this place if you like your money in YOUR pocket, not AMPM's.
