Am I being swindled?

jahmed78 · 09-15-2013, 07:39 PM

So I took my 2007 e90 in to the dealer for an alignment and apparently there was a battery cable recall. A few days later my battery dies (granted it was an old one). After getting my battery replaced, the next day my water pump fails. I get that fixed as well as some oil gaskets/seals. I pick up the car and drive it a couple days and then my coolant light comes on. I put some in and it leaks right out on the floor. This all seems way too suspicious to me. Thoughts? What should I do?

Battery could be coincidence based on age of your vehicle. Same goes for the water pump (I'm guessing you have over 60k miles on the car).

As for the coolant leak where is is leaking? You may just have to tighten a hose clamp.
