DO NOT EVER use this place. The work Southern Diesel did was good. But, they are not honest or stand by their word. I thought I needed a u joint and hub bearing on the driver side. (The passenger side was replaced a couple months ago). So, I asked them to look at it and give me a price. I was quoted 990.00. I said fine go ahead and do the work. I go to pick up the truck and the cost is 1320.26 . She said that she had to pay the other shop a diagostic fee. 330.26??… See more

Well I brought my truck there to get diagnosed. Told them don’t do anything until contacting me (I didn’t want to pay for something I could do myself) I get a call saying it cost $500 to “get it started” and would be $6000 to change the rear main seal!! (I brought it there for an oil leak). I go to pick it up and the total is $565. I look under the hood and it’s missing a radiator cap and won’t start! I had to jump it off from trying to turn it over to crank. So I take it to another shop where the mechanic tells me it’s not ... read more

Business response:

No, you were billed for the time we had in it trying to get it started after it had been sitting for quite some time. After getting it started (which required filling it with oil since it was 2 gallons low) we were then able to find all your oil leaks, and other problems. You were quoted to repair everything that was wrong with it (the rear engine cover which includes the rear main seal, the head gaskets and bulletproofing). We felt it fair to let you know everything that was wrong with the truck, since you had just purchase... read more

My sister was charged 100 dollars in fees to pay with a credit card. Which left her with 15 dollars to her name. I’m sorry but NO GOOD COMPANY WOULD DO THAT TO A PERSON. I would just like everyone in the world to know that Southern Diesel in Gonzales Louisiana charge me $100 worth of fees just for using my credit card instead of cash. I don't think it is fair at all, they just wiped out my bank account so I could get my truck back that has been sitting over there for a month and a half waiting to be able to be paid for. I ne... read more

I don't think it is fair at all, they just wiped out my bank account so I could get my truck back that has been sitting over there for a month and a half waiting to be able to be paid for. I need opinions and ideas on what I should do about it? I am now broke I have $15 to last me till next Friday and have no idea what I'm going to do and they tell me they can'... read more
