I took my car in because it was periodically not starting and left me stranded more that a few times.  After relaying this to the mechanic, he mentioned that he couldn't know for sure unless it wouldn't start for him, but he thought it might be the the starter switch.  So, a week later I pick my car up, with a new starter switch, and it works fine...for three weeks.  After work one day, my girlfriend turns the key and the motor is unresponsive.  Larry agreed to look at the car again for no charge, which is nice, but is honestly expected as what I had paid to have repaired obviously wasn't.  I leave the car and my phone number on a Tuesday with the promise that I'll get a call with an update.  On Monday, today, I call to find out that it's ready to pick up and has been for sometime apparently.  After talking with the mechanic (not Larry), I discover that naught has been done to my car.  He couldn't get it to "do it" and tells me "you don't change a light bulb until it goes out."  True, but when the light sometime comes on and sometimes doesn't, one hires an electrician and, if they don't fix it the first time, one calls them back.  He told me he got it to start 96 times in a row and another 25 times that very morning, implying, it seemed to me, that I didn't know what I was talking about.  He said he worked on it for an hour and, since he is paid on commission, he didn't make any money, again implying I was wasting his time.  I really have no idea if $150 is a fair price for replacing a starter switch, but it was their price and I paid it.  I assume that covers follow-up work resulting from a failure to achieve expectations.  Needless to say, I won't be returning.
