Mike's Equipment Repair

I went to Mike to replace the starter pull rope, he told me that it actually was the recoil spring and a couple of other issues and quoted me a price for repairs and I agreed, I told him I live off of a fixed income and his quote was the best I have gotten. he called me a few days later and said it was ready so I went to pick it up and he explained that he replaced the spring and fixed the self drive belt and air filter, he started it up and showed me it starts let it run for about 5 seconds and shut it down. I get it home and start it up and run it down the length of my driveway and the whole motor seizes up and I can’t even pull the starter cord. I called Mike up and left a message, sent text messages to him and he will not respond to me. He knows I don’t have the money to take it else where to get it fixed and he won’t talk to me or refund my money for not fixing the issue which is now worse than the original which was just replacing the starter cord. I would not recommend to you his services nor would I waste want you to waste your money on him either. Turns out that he is not a certified professional and he doesn’t have a shop it’s all done out of his garage and he leave mowers outside unsecured.
