“Two cars, two losses,” the host summarized, also noting that the engine of one of the vehicles was damaged during a tow. The scandal didn't end there. Social media captured a heated argument that took place this weekend at the Panama Racetrack, starring TV host Robin Durán and Gaby Novo, owner of a car repair shop and known online for his passion for cars. The issue that exploded on Saturday has been dragging on for months. Durán brought his car, a Mercedes-Benz, for bodywork and interior restoration, which he claims arrived at the shop in working condition. He also revealed that over 30 people have contacted him reporting similar issues with the same shop. The last straw occurred on Saturday at the racetrack event, where Durán claims the mechanic unexpectedly confronted him. After paying $1,850 as an advance, the work only progressed for the first few weeks before stalling due to constant excuses and delays. The situation worsened when he decided to take a second vehicle for an engine and transmission replacement, but the outcome was even more disastrous. Durán asserts that both cars ended up damaged: one with severe mechanical issues and the other with aesthetic damage to the paint, upholstery, leather, and internal finishes. “I was hit from behind and provoked,” he recounted, emphasizing that he remained calm despite the uncomfortable situation, especially due to the presence of the implicated person's daughter. As the case continues to generate online discussion, Durán warns that the conflict could end up in legal proceedings. The public figure also stated that he has evidence, receipts, and conversations that prove a year of breaches of contract.
