Well, I don't really think this thread belongs here to be honest. To answer your question though, you have to look at so many things:

When did you call?
How long has it been?
After hours?
Weekend?
etc.....


Man, most of these guys work in teh shop and do not have secretaries to answer the phone. If you did not bother to leave AJE a message, how are they supposed to know you called? If you left a message, I am sure someone will get back with you

I would just keep calling until you reach someone. I left a message at one shop and got a call back, but it was two weeks later. Like the guy above said, these guys are busy and usually don't have people to answer the phones.

Don't forget they may be in a different time zone and whatnot. Not sure what time you called them though. Or maybe they have caller ID and noticed it was you (j/k)

I can guarantee you Chuck @ Burkhart will get back with you. He's probably just laying under a car welding up something. Give it time or call back.
