Default Got robbed by my mechanic :(

I was overcharged for labor and parts I didn't need... PLUS, my car's mileage jumped up 500 miles in one day and he had no explanation!

In the backseat, I found three empty bottles...


When I see him, he acts like he's working on everything, and he refuses to budge on the phony bill!!! I'm being scammed! What do I do?





Oh, what makes things harder on me, is that the bottles were milk and that he's my 11-month old son!

Oh Man! Good luck with that Mechanic! He might even charge ya more for the pictures or even Sue you for using them on the internet without his consent!

Glad to see he has a Wrench in his hand as well! Better make sure he doesn't throw that at ya!
