A Tale of Two Car Cultures As a car enthusiast, I've had the privilege of experiencing two vastly different car cultures: the high-end world of cororate mechanic repair shops and the colorful world of local mechanics. Recently, I was reminded of this contrast when I came across my mechanic's response to a botched job by German Motors, an independent auto shop, on a 1976 Porsche 911 S. Picture this: a rare, pristine 1976 Porsche 911S, the epitome of engineering prowess. Now imagine the surprise and disappointment when the owner discovers that even the best in the business can make mistakes. Enter my mechanic, a colorful character with a thick regional accent that adds a touch of humor to any situation. The mechanic's response to the botched work by German Motors was a mix of incredulity and amusement. It was as if they couldn't fathom how an independent shop with a reputation for quality work could make such a basic error. But what made the conversation even more entertaining was the mechanic's accent, which added a hilarious twist to the whole situation.
This got me thinking about the different approaches to car maintenance and repair in these two contrasting worlds. On one hand, you have the high-end German car manufacturers, with their cutting-edge technology and precision engineering. They represent the pinnacle of automotive excellence, but even they are not immune to mistakes. On the other hand, you have the local mechanics, with their practical knowledge, hands-on approach, and unique accents that can make any car problem seem a little less daunting. In the end, both worlds have their merits and their flaws. The high-end German motors represent the pinnacle of automotive engineering, but they are not infallible. The local mechanics may not have the same prestige, but they have a wealth of knowledge, a dedication to their craft, and a humorous approach that can make even the most frustrating car issues a little more bearable. So, next time you find yourself in need of car maintenance or repair, remember that there's more than one way to approach the problem. Whether you're dealing with a high-end German car or a trusty old clunker, there's a mechanic out there who can get you back on the road. And who knows, they might just have a hilarious accent that will make the whole experience a little more entertaining.

German Motors in Las Vegas has earned a reputation for its lack of competence and fraudulent practices. A recent experience with a rare, classic 1976 Porsche 911s highlighted the depths of their negligence and fraudulent activities. Picture this: a family with a cherished 1976 Porsche 911 S, a car that has stood the test of time and holds significant sentimental value, takes their vehicle to German Motors for a simple repair. The initial quote was a reasonable $1,600, but before they knew it, the price skyrocketed to a staggering $10,000, with the promise of a fully functional car upon completion. Upon pick-up, German Motors had the audacity to demand an additional $2,000 for a fuel distributor that should have been included in the initial quote.
German Motors should have been aware that an air-cooled car, like a classic 1976 Porsche 911s, doesn't use liquid coolant, and therefore a coolant flush is not a service that can be performed. By not clearly understanding how the Porsche engine cooling system worked, they failed to clean out debris, grocery bags and even a leather belt from inside the cooling fan. This oversight stopped the engine cooling fan from properly working and overheated the engine. Josh Singer apologized for the company's lack of care but admitted that they were short-staffed on qualified mechanics. But the icing on the cake comes in the form of Daniel Eros, the son-in-law of the owner. Instead of apologizing for the disastrous repair job, he insults the customer and their family, blaming them for the car's issues. His arrogance knows no bounds, and it's clear that his understanding of customer service is as limited as his knowledge of Porsche mechanics. Outraged and frustrated, they declined to pay the extra $2,000 and had the car towed to another repair shop. German Motors in Las Vegas is a place to be avoided at all costs. Their incompetence, coupled with their appalling attitude towards customers, is enough to make any Porsche owner shudder. Save yourself the headache and steer clear of this establishment. Your beloved Porsche deserves better. Full video with the master Porsche mechanic explaining what happened. Please use these hashtags to spread the word and warn others about the negative experience with German Motors in Las Vegas. 1. #PorscheWarning

But in reality, he's just a "spoiled little brat" who went to college for fun, studying irrelevant subjects like taekwondo and swimming.
Darrell Yuen, the original owner of German Motors, should be very concerned about what his son-in-law is doing to elderly and mentally disabled customers. Daniel's business ethics are a disgrace, and his leadership has led to a decline in the shop's reputation. But wait, there's more! Daniel is a male chauvinist who insulted both my wife and me. He mistakenly assumed that I had paid him $10,000, when in reality, it was my wife who had settled the bill. When I brought up the fact that his employee had promised to reimburse me for towing, the employee had the audacity to look me in the eye and blatantly lie, claiming "I don't remember." It was then that I realized not only do Daniel's employees deceive their customers, but they also deceive Daniel himself. This lack of accountability and integrity is a clear indication of the incompetence of German Motors' staff and that Daniel has lost control. In conclusion, treating women with respect is a no-brainer for Daniel Eros and other business owners. By maintaining respect and professionalism, they can avoid the pitfalls of negative reviews, blog posts, and potential lawsuits. So, let's hope they learn from this and start treating people with the respect they deserve. After all, it's not biochemistry – just common sense! #danieleros #germanmotors #germanmotorslv #lasvegas #autorepaor #porsche #mercedes #audi German Motors in Las Vegas has left me and my family feeling utterly disheartened. My mother, an elderly woman, owns a rare classic 1976 Porsche 911 S, and the way they treated her and her prized possession was simply unacceptable. My mother wanted to get her classic Porsche 911 S back on the road. Initially, her mechanic quoted her a steep price ranging from $5,000 to $8,000, which was far beyond her budget. Determined to find a more affordable solution, she sought quotes from various other mechanics. Eventually, she decided to entrust German Motors with the task, as they offered to fix the car for a more reasonable $1,600. In February 2023, we were quoted $1,600 to get the car running. However, by May 2023, the cost ballooned to $7,600. While my mother was deciding whether she could afford the repairs, German Motors sent three people to check on her, including a police officer who left his card. This was a very intrusive and alarming experience for her.
My wife stepped in, and we agreed to make monthly payments of $1,000. The car was supposedly ready in December, but they needed an extra week to put in fresh fuel. We picked up the car on December 29, 2023, but it didn't even make it a quarter mile before the engine seized. We had the car towed back to the shop, and they agreed to pay for the towing, which they still haven't done. On February 23, 2024, we went to pick up the car again, but we were made to wait for an hour. Josh Singer then charged us $39 for fuel and said the car was still not ready. We haven't heard from German Motors since, and when we contacted some lawyers, we accidentally reached their lawyer. They then called us and said that if we pay them another $2,000, they'll fix the fuel delivery system, which was apparently destroyed by the bad gas they put in it. Josh was very rude to my wife throughout this ordeal. We're at a loss for how to deal with a company like German Motors. It's a shame that such a reputable brand would treat an elderly woman and her classic car with such disregard. We hope that sharing our experience will help others make informed decisions about where to take their vehicles for service. Lawyers, prepare to be shocked and appalled by the tale of my experience with German Motors in Las Vegas. This is a story that will make you question the very notion of customer service and the responsibility of businesses to treat their customers and their vehicles with respect. Picture this: A rare classic 1976 Porsche 911s, lovingly garaged for 40 years, which belonged to my deceased father-in-law and was subsequently given to my schizophrenic sister-in-law. The car, a symbol of my father-in-law’s legacy and a source of comfort for my sister-in-law, was entrusted to German Motors for repairs. A substantial sum of $9,951.65 paid in good faith. And what did I get in return? A year of neglect, an unsafe car, a destroyed engine, sun damage, a slew of insults and a car that broke down immediately upon pickup. A Shocking Tale of NeglectUpon picking up my car on December 29th, it failed to make it more than a half-mile before the engine ceased functioning. The vehicle was promptly towed back to German Motors on January 2nd, 2024, the next business day. The tow truck driver informed us that the sway-bar had not been attached when German Motors worked on the suspension. We are deeply concerned about the oversight in German Motors' work, which led to the sway bar not being properly attached to the vehicle following suspension work, posing a serious safety issue. This negligence could have resulted in catastrophic accidents, such as a rollover, crash, or personal injury or death. German Motors initially claimed that the car stalled due to old gas because we took 6 months to pay. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that German Motors never serviced the fuel distributor, and the engine cooling fan was filled with grocery bags and a leather belt. It was clear that German Motors had not performed any work on the vehicle other than installing shocks and spark plugs, as the car was not running. Upon further investigation, it was discovered that German Motors never serviced the fuel distributor, and the engine cooling fan was filled with grocery bags and a leather belt. It was clear that German Motors had not performed any work on the vehicle other than installing shocks and spark plugs, as the car was not running. The mechanic said that he drove out to Ble Diamond and back. This would be highly improbably given the current state of the engine, Here is a video detailing the issues we’ve had with the car since picking it up : It is now April, and there has been a concerning lack of updates regarding the status of my vehicle. German Motors has not provided me with any information about their findings or the necessary repairs.  German Motors has kept our classic 1976 Porsche 911 S outside in the Las Vegas sun for over a year as they have denied multiple requests to store this classic car in their garage. Adding to the damages, I have requested that German Motors store the car in a garage to prevent sun damage, which can lead to paint degradation and potentially necessitate a costly new paint job. Despite my request, they have refused to do so, further exacerbating the situation. It is important to note that this car has been lovingly garaged at home for the past 20 years. We would never expect German Motors to keep it outside in the Vegas sun for over a year. This neglect of proper storage conditions further compounds the damages that we are already facing due to the prolonged repair process and German Motors' refusal to store the car in a garage.  Our 1976 Porsche nine 1111 S has been safely stored in our living garage for 20 years until we took it to German Motors. It is important to note that this car has been lovingly garaged at home for the past 20 years. We would never expect German Motors to keep it outside in the Vegas sun for over a year. This neglect of proper storage conditions further compounds the damages that we are already facing due to the prolonged repair process and German Motors' refusal to store the car in a garage. This is a tale of neglect, lack of communication, and a blatant disregard for the well-being of a customer's property. It is a cautionary story that serves as a stark reminder of the importance of choosing a repair shop that truly cares about its customers and their vehicles.  German Motors had the audacity to charge us $39 for gas after we had already paid over $9,951.65 for a car that is still not running after a year. Lies told by German motors “The car broke down because we took too long to pay." - Daniel Eros In reality, the engine cooling fan was clogged with debris, the gas tank and fuel distributor were severely rusted, making it impossible for the car to run in its current condition. "Since the car broke down as soon as you left the shop, we will pay for towing." - Dave Dave blatantly lied when he claimed not to remember offering to pay for the towing. "We drove it to Blue Diamond and back without any problems last week." - German Motors Mechanic Given the condition of the engine cooling fan and the age of the fuel distributor, it is highly improbable that the car could have made the trip without issues. Whitney Eros wrote that the car needed a coolant flush to drive, charging us $194. However, the car is air-cooled, rendering a coolant flush impossible.  My father gave my schizophrenic sister this classic 1976 yellow Porsche 911 S after he died. |
