MERCEDES BENZ OF TEMECULA COVID-19 SCAM
FRAUD, FABRICATING REPAIRS, TORMENTING, ELDERLY ABUSE, CAUSING MENTAL AND PHYSICAL DISTRESS
Gurtn Blumenthal - The owner Sam Lafoca – My advisor Reza Nejad – The Service Manager
-
As soon as COVID-19 started in 2020, a major repair for about $4,000.00 was recommended by advisor Sam Lafoca, even though there was no sign of needing any repair.
-
Then, a malfunction of the exhaust system, the DEFT gauge, shut down the engine because of wrong coding. Lafoca charged me for resetting the code $200.00. After a couple of days, it happened the same, and he charged me again $200.00 for fixing his mistake and $200 extra for a test drive to check if the code worked ok.
-
Then Lafoca suggested fixing the problem with the exhaust system, for which he charged me close to $4,000.00. At that time, the problem with the exhaust system was already under recall, and he forgot to mention it, so I paid with my out-of-pocket money. FRAUD!!!
-
The air conditioning stopped working, so I asked him to repair it, but he only added freon, 5 min work for $200, better than lots of dirty work for $500 to repair the AC.
-
I had a noise coming from the engine compartment and asked him to take care of it, but he never did, letting me drive for more than 15,000 miles with the noise.
-
Finally, I realized that he had never advised me about changing fluids in the transmission and the differential for more than 120,000 miles. At that moment, my eyes opened. I went for another appointment; I asked him to replace fluids and take care of the noise from the engine compartment and threatened him with a complaint if he didn’t take care of this. A MIRACLE HAPPENED!!! He took my van to the service, shortly brought the van back, and the noise disappeared.
-
He made two major repairs to compensate for the loss of his income because of COVID-19 and was preparing my van for another three major repairs: engine, transmission, and differential. In addition, he charged me 2 x $200 for resetting the code, $200 for test driving instead of using the recall process, and $200 instead of $17, as previously, to replace a small bulb in the back fender.
9. Sam Lafoca designed the scam under the eyes of Gurtn Blumenthal and Reza Nejad, and they scammed m me for over $10k over one year.
10. Was I a single person scammed by Lafoca? A few questions: Did other advisors from MB Temecula do the same as Lafoca? Did this cancerous scam stay within MB Temecula walls, or did it spread to other car dealerships? Are they continuing scamming customers now since the bad habits are difficult to eradicate? We will get all answers after the federal and state investigation. I will file complaints next week.
11. I will file a complaint about this scam with the FBI and other federal and state authorities. Also, I will send a copy of it to bring the scam to the attention of a senator and a representative for the Temecula area.
12. The case will be brought to the attention of the public through the media, and this flier distribution, and updates placed on my website www.mbtemeculafraud.com
12. I stopped using MB Temecula and drove more than 60,000 without any repairs since then. The only things I have to fix it now are the transmission and the differential, and will cost me, thanks to Lafoca, about $5,000.00.
I distribute this flier 50/60 daily around Riverside County and put them on Mercedes brand cars, SUVs, and vans, on windshields, so the owners can easily see it pick it up, and read it.
Since I stopped using MB Temecula, I’ve been using Laguna Woods Auto Repair; they serviced my other vans for 15 years when I lived in Orange County. Its a half of MB Temecula's price, and no complaint. Phone#
