            I have brought a ****** 300zx Fuel tank to Sunwest Transmission for flush and clean, the service I received is sloppy. I reached out to the Owner/ President ***** and shared an email compiled with the service i received. ***** agreed that the service was sloppy on July 10th and the conversation has gone cold since.Most of my complaints are about the paint job, and that there is likely paint that was over sprayed into the tank after it had been flushed, and my concern is that the paint in side the fuel tank will lead to premature failure of the *** new fuel pump.I would like to share the Email of Pictures and descriptions of the Fuel Tank with a Representative at the Better Business Bureau, I dropped the fuel tank off on 28th of June ****** up July 3rd

            This company is the worst transmission place I have ever been to.They quoted me a price for my fix and it was a lie .They quoted **** out the door said by mouth and by the time my car was done it was $3400 out the door. While my car was there they couldnt give me sure answers about my trans and they ran out of gas while they were doing finishing supposed programming .For a company thats been around for years this is a ammature . They also quoted me a week to fix it two weeks later.

            First let me say "I am extremely sorry **************** did not understand the necessary repairs and is unhappy with the finished product"Second there were in fact two separate repairs needed to get the car back on the road. The Dual clutch assembly had to be repaired/ replaced first which was the obvious failure and fixed at less than the quoted $2800 (plus tax and shop supplies). Upon completion a second problem was found, the *** (computer) was not operating properly (causing the first component to fail) it was replaced at the revised estimate of $3400 including the reprograming of the ***. The added repairs along with running out of fuel during programming (requiring a second round of programming) caused the added delays. The original eta was 4/22 actual delivery was 4/28 (4 working days later).
