At what point from seeing the big oak tree at the back of the shop with a large diameter rope on it - give you a clue it was the wrong shop ?
It was a good thread to start for just my .02 worth. I have been turning wrenches 42 yrs now. That is in the trucking industry and also Harley Davidson dealership service manager. Check out my thread if you do not think I know what I am talking about.
Everyone has a story - good bad and ugly.
I am glad you went back and confronted the shop - in a mild mannered tone and just explained (I have seen the refection of this as well, where the guys is not about to listen). I am not up on Canadian shop laws - down here - if you did not sign for the required estimated work give or take 3% for unknowns - you are not responsible - no matter how much work they did to it.
Mechanics are another story and I am not about to get into that without sitting around a bon fire with a beer trying to settle world events.
Lets talk about "misc shop charges"
