Hello
On Dec. 14, I brought my Lexus in for the recall to fix the rubber boot. Late that evening they called to say I could come and pick up my car. At the dealers, I was told that I had cracked bushings and should have my front lower control arm and bushing done as well as replace my two front tires as they had a low tread. ($2000--holiday gift?). They told me to do it immediately..I had to leave for an event with the wife so said I would schedule it. I left the deal and after driving for 10 minutes I noted smoke coming from the engine compartment. I stopped the car and looked under the hood to see sparks coming from the space between the radiator and engine block .. we had a water bottle in the back and even though I thought it might be an electrical fire, I poured the water on as it started to flame.. luckily it put it out and I found the cause..the mechanic had left the oil rag hanging from the dip stick and it caught on fire (still the sparks were weird). When I took the car back to the dealer, they just opened the hood and looked down and said there wasn't any damage..
Took the car to two other mechanics and they said there was nothing wrong with the bushings!!
I am ready to go back to the dealership manager and complain.
anyone's thoughts??
