Complaint Review: Nielsen Auto Service

 My car's air conditioner was on the fritz.  I was relatively new to the community and I saw the dude's commericial and figured that I'd give him a chance to fix my car, make a few bones and establish a relationship.  I've always thought it was a good idea to have a decent relationship with a reputable mechanic. 

I still believe that is a good idea.  The drawback here is that I didn't choose a reputable guy to start developing this relationship. 

So, it's hotter than hell out and my A.C. doesn't work.  I needed to travel back to my hometown which is six hours away in a few days, so I take my car in to this joker, tell him my story and stress to him that I need to go home in a couple of days.  I told him repeatedly I need to go out of state, if you can't finish it in time, tell me.

The owner tells me, "no problem" and gets to work.  Long story short, he fixes stuff that wasn't broke and fills up the freon.  He never fixed the A.C. and charges me $600 to take my car off his property.  Being that I was in a hurry to leave for the long drive, I bit my lip, paid the schmuck and swore to myself the whole trip.
