<p>[QUOTE="Rideandrepair, post: 11587632, member: 168603"]I had a problem once with a transmission install. Had to have it pulled, bolts replaced and reinstalled a month later. I took all my receipts. Put them in an envelope. Listed them all on the outside. Hotel, car rental, lost revenue included. It all added up to quite a bit more than the original $800. I told the original Shop Owner I’d have no other choice than take him to small claims court, unless I get a refund. Holding the envelope so he could see all the extra costs/losses. When he asked what I wanted, told him I’ll give you the same deal you gave me, $800 cash. He gave Me the original $800 back. Fair enough. I was actually surprised he did. He wasn’t very happy about it. They originally did the Job in a short time. His Mechanic screwed up, being in a hurry. They also left the fill plug out, lost half the oil before noticing it. Brand new trans! It happens. People make mistakes. They should stand behind their work. Insurance coverage or not. Insurance excuse sounds like BS designed to discourage you. Probably don’t even have such a policy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
