A Menlo man called sheriff’s deputies in reference to a problem he was having with a company that put a new engine in his truck.

A deputy spoke with Michael Owens of a Peach Orchard Road, Menlo address about a problem he was having with a company that had came to his residence and put a new diesel engine in his 2013 Dodge Ram 3500 truck.  Owens told the deputy that he had paid $8,600 for the work and the company had told him he had a three-year, 100,000 mile warranty.  The work was done on the truck last November.

After putting 25,000 miles on the vehicle, Mr. Owens began having problems with the truck.  Owens said he attempted to contact the company but had not been successful.  Owens also told the deputy that after the mechanic left his residence, he was missing a Core Charging System.

The deputy advised Mr. Owens that he should speak with attorney about the problem with the warranty and that he could got to Chattooga County Magistrate Court about the missing charging system.
