I had my share of problems there too. Fortunately, many, if not most problems are solved by me watching them whether they are dealership or not. I've also had independents try to rape me financially without the KY so what is the difference?
Dealerships tend to shy away from them more because they are not so hard up for the business. Independents tend to take on whatever job comes in so they will do it. Whether they have the proper training and tools to do the job is a different story. Quite often, not and they will still muddle thru the job AT YOUR EXPENSE. |
Aklim, can you ask them if you can watch? I'd love to watch and would feel much more at ease, have you ever been able to at a dealership? I can just see them saying no because of insurance reasons in case I slip or fall. Although on the techs side, I'd hate to have someone just watching me work, I hated that when I detailed cars with my dad at the customers house...
