      I had my 2014 Ford Flex towed to this shop for a simple starter replacement. Upon leaving the shop as my vehicle is allegedly being repaired i received a call from the shop manager ****** in which he states "I'm unable to turn on the ignition and put the car into neutral in order push it onto the ramp, what's TRICK to shift the vehicle into gear?" Thinking to myself "Trick?? There's no trick, it's a very simple simple that any component experienced mechanic or shop would know. Allow me to explain. There's a push button start on my vehicle. The battery in my key fob is dead. The car isn't acknowledging the key for. To solve this problem can manufacturers designate and area inside the vehicle where the key fob can be placed in order to start the vehicle in case the key fob battery dies. That's smart, that's common sense considering the fact that batteries of all sorts eventually drains out and/or dies. In my vehicle the location is in my armrest, I've had a STS Cadillac location armrest. Mustang, location Buckys didn't realize the reason the ignition wouldn't turn on and decided to force my vehicle into gear to allegedly position onto a ramp in order to lift a vehicle that doesn't require lifting to replace a starter. When I picked up my vehicle I started it up and instantly had major issues that wasn't present before taken to the shop. The shifter was hard to shift into reverse, in the drive position the car was actually in neutral, I had to shift with force in order to put the vehicle in park. I asked ****** what did they do to my vehicle, he explained the vehicle was in such condition caused by the tow truck driver or me. First of all I know not to force a vehicle's shifter while the ignition is off. Second all the tow driver had enough common sense to asked me upon realizing he's unable to shift into neutral. I showed and explained to him the procedure and he instantly understood. Don't waste your money and more importantly, don't waste your time!!
