Wow, I hate hearing all these horror stories about shoddy shops. How far is he from his delivery? Is it possible to sub out the load to another carrier and maybe salvage some revenue out of the load at least.

Secondly, if husband isn’t mechanically inclined, he needs to take a crash course. I can turn a wrench, but I can’t turn as fast as a mechanic. HOWEVER, since I can and understand how things work, it makes it much more difficult to rip me off. If an owner op isn’t mechanically inclined, a shop is going to jip him out of $1000 every time he pulls into a shop. I don’t need anyone to troubleshoot an issue at a tune of $150/hour.Lostkeys, Gearjammin' Penguin, LoneRanger and 1 other person Thank this. -
Something comes up I'm not familiar with, good chance youtube will educate me.

He can work on engines to an extent but this was a dot inspection and repair to get our authority. It needed alot of work, suspension and motor. The shop is widely known. So not sure what happened. The tech apparently didn't torque the gear bolts and well, it shot them through the system destroying more in its path.

Although it’s easy to see that is the issue, it’s a lot harder to prove in court. I feel for your pain and have been in that situation. Hope it works out for the better.Jewels 2011 Thanks this. -
