For all the people in here trashing Darryl and his guys how many of you peform every last aspect of your professional life absolutely flawlessly? I would wager on none. Speeking in a strictly hypathetical matter if there was a mistake made at ASS that caused this issue I don’t blame Darryl at all for wanting full documetation and proof before he pays for anything. > > Also on the topic of the dealer not wanting to work on the OPs non OEM vehicle. Are you serriously surprised??? If you brought shit like that into my dealer we wouldn’t even write an R.O. on it. There is too much liability and agravation involved for a dealership to bother with the incosequential amount of money for the job. > > KK rant over. I agree with your first paragraph 90%. I do not perform without mistakes at my job. However, this is a different world now. A world with Yelp, forums, tweets, Facebook, etc. For every restaurant there is a dissatisfied customer commenting. And yes, at my job, when somebody calls the one eight hundred number I am TOTALLY accountable for what happened. With an independent shop, there is no number. It’s just up to the shop owner. What you don’t understand is that I, without sponsorship or comment, boasted about A.S.S. for nearly two years because of the people that I met there when I first came back to Albany. Those people have left A.S.S. for their own reasons. I also don’t believe that I’ve “trashed” A.S.S. or Daryl. How is what I said different from what he said? I stated facts. Derive from them what you may. I assure you that if I contacted Daryl today and he said, “You know what. You’re right. We might have messed up considering the situation, I’ll refund you \_\_\_ of the labor.” I would’ve come on here and said, “Wow. This shop gets it and they will back you.” And you know what? Future customers love that stuff. And no, I’m not surprised at the dealer not wanting to work on my car. I was surprised that they were welcoming to it, then suddenly not despite my full disclosure. I wouldn’t have posted or batted an eye if they said, “Ya know, we can’t really work on a car of your type,” the first time I called them. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/timing-belt-job-performed-twice/267716)._
