He is a CROOK preying on women he can RIP-OFF and has picked the wrong FATHER GEO and Daughter to RIP OFF.
Here is my Daughter's story of Ice Cold Air experience in St. Pete FL (1406 4th. St. N. St. Pete N., which is owned by Chris Anderson-- Ice Cold Air MV#101662.
My Daughter's notations: I Was totally ripped off....
I had my van towed here because it stalled on me. I was told the knock sensor was bad and needed to be replaced for over $250, had them replace it, went to go pick the vehicle up and not 20 mins down the road it stalled on me again. Had to have it towed back and then was told it was the radiator, had them replace it, for another $450.. was promised it was totally fixed by the owner. Brought it home and checked the coolant reservoir and it was bone dry! Refilled it more than 4 times and it kept leaking all out. Took it to another ICA location and was then told I just needed a coolant reservoir and radiator cap but couldn't afford an additional $350 for the fix.. also was told that the previous ICA just JB Welded the reservoir!! So they knew it was leaking and didn't bother actually fixing the problem! They never put the bolts in correctly under the hood. Now I'm out over $700 and still have a vehicle that's not working.. I'm so beyond angry and I will never bring my vehicle to another Ice Cold Air again! Just ridiculous!! Would give 0 stars if I could...
Chris I will make sure this is posted on every review sites available with lots of pictures of shotty job you did and all ICE COLD AIR locations, so that you don't keep ripping people off. Nope...I will see you all soon!!!!
Also where are the missing bolts, nuts and screws that you removed and never replaced???????
1's reply to Chris Andersons response below. The truth to your response is unfactual and lies, you Chris Anderson only called once. I have a record of that.
Ken Laham at corporate has only called once. I have a record of that. I have corresponded with Ken Laham at Corporate since you have been difficult to work with. I will be speaking with Ken Laham at corporate ICA
My car recently had poor performing AC. I made an appontment for 10:30AM. It was nearly 11 before a tech pulled the car into a bay. Another hour passsed by before I was informed that the "FREE" inspection would have a $75 charge for diagnosis. I consented. The diagnosis came back as a failed compressor and the installation was "estimated" at $1,200 and would take 7 hours work to repair. I said "no thanks", paid $45 for labor and left for another repair shop. I showed them the diagnosis I paid for which was only a list of parts to be replaced with a hand written "$1200 estimate". They virified that replacing thos parts would cost that amount, however there as no test to determine that the compressor was leaking. Upon the second shop checking the car they found the AC system to be fully operational and not in need of repair. They did however find that the air controller was not sending the air to the proper ducts causing poor AC performance.
If I had let Ice Cold Air repair the problem the would have been zero improvement for $1,200 and likely another repair costing god knows what. These guys must be paid commission for repair work and are not qualified to diagnose problems but are "parts replacers". Do Not Take Their Word As Truth. While there I witnessed a couplle who had transmission problems willingly pay $150 to add fluid to their transmission! Don't Trust Them.
