Something shady is going on!

I first contacted Mechanic outlet back in late June to order my lift. Everything seemed to be going well and they said 1 to 2 weeks was the estimated shipping time. When week 2 had passed i contacted them and they said they were having freight issues that it would be shipped in a few days. The same process continue to occur over the next couple weeks and i still received nothing. It has now been 6 weeks and i still have not received anything. They have stopped answering my calls or voicemails since about a week ago and i can no longer get a hold of them. After seeing other similar posts i feel that indeed this is some type of scam and have contacted my credit card company and BBB. Buyers beware!

Beware buyers I have not received my product, and all communication has stopped from Mechanic Outlet. Also noticed that one of the good reviews they have is from one of their own employees. To make matters worse one of their reps uses a Google voice number which is not a good sign.
They are no longer responding to calls or emails. I am going to contact the BBB and all other entities as this has gone on long enough.

Not what I was hoping for

Everything seemed ok over the phone. Nice guy to talk to but then everything went south from there. Communication is non existent. No one will answer the phone, email or return a call. I honestly believe this “mechanicoutlet” is a scam and would not recommend it to my worst enemy. Sad to see companies operate or lack there of, in this manner.

Update: I had to call the credit company to dispute the charge, of which i never approved. Still no contact from Rudy after multiple times reaching out to him. The main number does not work. Seems very sketchy to me. Not good business practices. Dropped my credit score by more than 30 points for a purchase I didn’t authorize.

Buying the lift was so easy

Buying the lift was so easy. Getting it installed is a different story. Was told installer was busy and then going on vacation. So I waited over 2 weeks. Was supposed to be installed today. Made many calls to verify that it would be installed. Finally after my last phone call at 1130 I was told it wouldn’t be installed today. Not real happy. I had to make all the calls. Scheduled work light today to make it easier for installers. Cost me money today. Let’s see if they show up on Wednesday. I’m not to optimistic

Reply from Mechanic Outlet

Jeff chose to wait until the best installer was available from day one. The FREIGHT Company is the culprit in this case... they had a several trailers stacked up after the 4th of July on the Monday (July 8th)
~ We had made several attempts to reach the installer on Monday morning he returned our call late morning~ he was on the road to the FREIGHT DOCK when the installer went to pick up they told him he would have to come back Wednesday. The installer did so and completed the install on that Wednesday.
