Four Questions 83 through 87 refer to the following complaint and response 2009 Bear Circle, Daviston, KS 23334 May 5th Dear Sirs, I recently purchased a new car battery at the Daviston branch of Advance Autoparts. The mechanics installed this battery for me and I drove home. Once I arrived home, 1 read the receipt which I had been given. I noticed that there seemed to be some additional charges. I was charged for the following: 1 2 3 4 1. car battery 2 Battery installation 3 Cable corrosion check 4 Cable cleaning 5. 6. 7. 8. Reconnection of cables Disposal of old battery Mechanic's service fee Tax I feel that it is rather excessive to charge a separate fee for items 2 and 5. Connecting the cables is merely part of the installation process. I also feel that it is inappropriate to have charged an additional mechanic's fee-surely I am already paying the mechanic in item 2 for the installation. Finally, I would have appreciated knowing in advance that I would be charged for disposal of the old battery. Had I known this, I would have liked to have taken it for disposal myself, since the public garbage disposal site does NOT charge a fee. Perhaps Advance Autoparts would like to consider giving customers a breakdown of costs before carrying out repairs. I, for one, would probably not have used your services had I known exactly what I would be charged for. Yours faithfully, Ted Varani Page 10/14 – Mã đề: 135 Advance Autoparts Byron Way Daviston May 10th Mr. Varani 2009 Bear Circle Daviston, KS 23334 Dear Mr. Varani, I am writing in response to your letter of May 5th.

I am sorry not to be able to offer any assistance in this matter, but I trust that you have been satisfied with the quality of the battery you purchased, and I am confident you will be happy with the quality of our mechanic's work. Sincerely, Kevin Heath, Chief Mechanic, Advance Autoparts Question 83: Why did Mr. Varani write to Advance Autoparts? A. He wanted to thank them. B. He believed they had charged too much C. He wanted to order a new battery. D. He wanted to find out their store location. Question 84: What does Mr. Varani think Advance Autoparts should give customers? A. A list of costs before doing repairs B. A free battery C. An itemized bill D. Free car wash and waxing Question 85: What would Mr. Varani have liked to have done for himself? A.
