So i go to pick up the car today and OMFG was that one hell of an adventure. My friend and I go to get the car. I walk into the office and pay the bill, and they inform me that the transmission will pull the car, but it slips bad. I try to fight paying the bill, but get nowhere fast. They pull the car up and i notice the tire is off the rim. The mechanic gets out of my car and said that my tire is flat. I said, no it off the rim. This pisses me off. My friend goes into the office and demands that the tire gets fixed, so they bring an air hose out and the mechanic tries to fill the tire. After 10 mins hes tells me that it wont hold air. I was like no sh!t your going to have to jack the front end of the car up and re set the tire. Well he doesn't listen to me and proceeds to get another mechanic who tries to air it up, to no avail. So finally they listen to me and jack the front end up and re set the tire, and would you believe that the tire actually set back on the rim and held air! By this time im ready to kill someone. We get the car on the trailer and we drive back up the office and i ask the owner to right on my receipt that his mechanics drove on the rim. I wanted them to do this because if there was rim damage i wanted them to fix this. Well the owner refused to sign anything saying that he didnt see the rim so how does he know that i didnt do anything. so i call my dad (im 18 living at home) and he said that he wanted to talk to the owner. the owner refused to talk to him and wanted me to take the car off the trailer so he could "inspect" the rim. I said dont touch my car. You guys screw up my transmission, and drove the tire on the rim. I dont trust you. We argue some more, but nothing gets done. so now i have an f'ed up tranny and a f'ed up rim.
cliff notes:
take car to the shop and get f'ed in the a
