This right here is grounds for an @$$-whoopin’. It’s sad what society has become. I’m sure there are hard-working/honest mechanics still around, but the ones that give them a bad name will either:

1. Half@$$ the work
2. Do the work, but break something else and scare you into fixing what is already working to begin with
3. Claim and charge the work was done, but really wasn’t
4. Take your car for a joyride

I remember there is a member on this forum who would tell stories about how they worked at Nissan as a mechanic, but had that “not-my-car-so-idgaf” mentality.
