I recently had my girlfriend's vehicle serviced at a local repair shop, choosing to bypass the dealership. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing and costly. On December 29, 2025, I dropped off the vehicle for brake service and an oil chamber assembly replacement. The next day, December 30, 2025, I picked up the vehicle, only to notice a new noise and halting issue two hours later. I immediately contacted the shop and was told that additional parts, labor, and fees would be required to address the issue, which they claimed was a new problem unrelated to their work. I dispute this assessment, as the noise was not present before the repair. A mechanic's comment, "Well, to let you know that noise might not be coming from the work we did," suggests that the shop is attempting to deflect responsibility. I believe the issue is a direct result of their work and should be addressed at no additional cost. The total cost of the initial repair was already higher than expected, and I am now being asked to pay over $800 in additional repairs. I am dissatisfied with the service and feel that the shop should take responsibility for their mistake.
