my mechanic is pissing me off

Alright so i found a shop near my house that i have do all the work on my 6er. I bought my car with a coolant leak so a few days after i picked it up (last may) i went there to get it fixed. After6 hours, they call say its all good. I go and pick it up. They said they put a flush tee on it and it should hold. So.....on the drive home, i pull into my drive way, get out of my car to go to the garage keypad, open the garage and pull my car in. while i get out i see a long line of green fluid. i got pissed called the shop and everyone left for the day. So i bring it in the next day bright and early, they call me 6 hours later say they removed the flush tee and put a new one on. So i pick up the car, and the same flippin thing happens, i call right away, they tell me to bring it back, then they look and say your going to need new coolant hoses, and there gonna take a 3 days to come in. so i leave my car there for three nights. Good thing is they fixed it for free because they ****** up so many times! wow, that was long....so today i bring my car in because i noticed my transmission fluid was leaking. I needed my oil changed and all that good stuff too. So i go pick up the car after recieving the call. so i drive home park the car on the driveway, wait for about 15 minutes then go move my car back and WALA!!! ITS STILL LEAKING. Not as bad but its still leaking. im so pissed off you have no idea..i hate when theres something wrong with my car. Im calling tomorrow and its not gonna be good..time to find me a new shop!

Wow, they really have no idea what they're doing. I would have been done with them after the first time you had all the problems.

You definately need a new mechanic.

Thats one thing I thank god for, that I can work on my own cars. I'd **** a brick if someone else had to do to my car what i've done to it.

sorry to hear that ur having all that trouble, i guess thats a good thing about doing all my own work because ive never had to deal with a mechanic for anything and i always am more careful doing stuff cause its my car, but id find a new mechanic and get them to refund ur money
