#16882, "mitsubishi dealership trying to screw me"


          

hey,
I got my car back from the Dealership yesterday after doing the ball joint thing. The gave me a sheet and said this is what the mechanic found wrong with my car. This included tie rod ends, struts, and also that my head gasket is blown despite the fact that I havent experienced power loss or had coolant/oil probs or white smoke from my exaust. Then he says they'll replace it for $1150 or they'll sell me a new gasket for $750. I laughed in his face and left. So if I do have a gasket prob then how about some difficulty to change/gaskets that cost less than $750 info. thanks
