I was in getting some work done to the gt-four a while ago, and while i was waiting a mechanic drove out the garage in my car and didnt return for 15mins. I wasnt even informed of this test drive of my car, and no mention of whether the mechanic is insured or not.

Whats your thoughts??
I reckon the car was given some beans.

Going in again soon, what should i say to not let happen again??

The same thing hapened with my 3sgte when i took mine in for an alignment and when i got the car back it was still pulling and they broke a mirror... they gave me the alignment for free instead of fixing the mirror which was okay i guess since i got another fomr the junk yard... Very recently though I took my car to a mechanic to get my AC reinstalled... I bought what i thought was all the parts from someone off here and the mechanic then told me i didn't have enough of the AC lines... so the car sat in the shop for 3 months as he went from junk yard to junk yard searching for AC lines... I was at school and I'm sure he probably put my car on the back burner ince he knew i wasn't going to be back till christmas break... when I got back yea the A/C was fixed but there was a huge dent on my driver side fender the rear passenger corneranel looked like it had been side swipped.. there was a nail in my fron right tire and the switch that changes the colors of my gauges insde my car was missing... and in the end I still had to pay $150 for the install. Yea I'll never trust another mechnic with my car again... except for maybe Dr. Tweak
