Heard that. First time this has ever happened to me with any of my vehicles.

Yea I made sure to check that first thing. It was about 1am when i came back in so I didn't have much light but I did notice a few wire that had been stripped etc.
Just got another UPDATE:
Service manager told me they will need another week
They decided that instead of replacing my AC compressor they will be replacing the part that was fried which was the clutch/coil?? So I'm keeping my own compressor just having it "rebuilt" in a way. Which they have to wait for the part to come in from Tennessee therefore taking so damn long. First ETA was September 25th, then today the 30th, and now sometime next week.... Kind of upset about it but in the end I guess it's just better to have everything 100% and double checked
