mechanics

Apologies up front to those honest and skilled mechanics out there that can fix a car. Obviously this rant/post is not directed to you. No, indeed this is directed to those shonky rip off merchants that obviously do not know one end of the car from the other and do not accept any responsibilty for their actions.
You know that the big squirrel had car troubles. We were progressing with fixing what the mechanic had diagnosed to be the problem. When he had finished the work and tested the car, it seems that was not in fact the problem, there was something else. Would you not imagine with the level of skill and training we could expect him to find the underlying problem?????
To cut a long story short, not happy with our mechanic and if it wasn't so hard and time consuming we would take action against them. I just hate that we have just taken our business elsewhere rather than address the issue. Now they will just continue in business with someone else ending up in the same position as us.
Regardless, problem solved, not too much money, a lot of inconvenience and stress, but car back on the road.
