[s-cars] Blown turbo & Life lesson #3568921

[Martin Kozaczek]

I had a similar issue with them this year.

Bought a blower motor and heater core which both ended up not working.  I
waited 7 months to install the parts.

In the end they took the parts back and gave me store credit.

So, that worked out OK since there are other things I want to get from them.
