Default Be careful with car shop guys

Be careful !!! Be careful !!!

The AC on my BRAND NEW Z it is NOT working anymore, due to some bad installation at a "big name shop" (as some people has the audacity to call it.)
Be careful with these shops you often see on facebook and in the car culture. They DO NOT stand behind their work, they charge an arm and a leg for some lousy work.
After going BACK to where I got my stillen G3 installed their excuse (because it was an excuse I don't see anything else other than that) he said and I quote "I see where the problem is, but it wasn't because of our installation. If it was your AC would stop working after 3-6months, but it took a year and some change..." After I asked him "but if you guys are on the 370zforum I'm sure you guys seen the DIYs there, you guys call yourselves professionals. So why whoever installed it never secured the AC tube as shown on the DIYs on the forum so the AC would not be damaged as it is now?" His answer was "not sure why, but my guy didn't skip no step and I can fix that for you and not charge you too much on labor work" not charge me too much labor work ? THE FUK THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN ? You shouldn't charge me sh!t period. WHAT THE FUK YOU MEAN MY GUY DIDNT SKIP A STEP? YOU DUMB STUPID OR BLIND ? HE DIDNT SECURED THE AC TUBE. THAT WAS A STEP MY FRIEND ...
Because of some stupid as$es who call themselves professionals because they worked on 2 or 3 10 second cars, and a few good looking show off cars my AC does NOT work. And now I have to spend more money to get something fixed that THEY broke it.

I'm not mad, I'm not mad at all. I am frustrated! More So I wanna warn people so they don't have to go through, what I went through because it isn't a good feeling. We already have so much trouble to save enough money and spend money to buy these parts we want that aren't cheap, for our loved cars, for a shop with "good rep" that charge you a arm and a leg to install the part you purchased and RUIN your vehicle.
Keep in mind I had to drive 40min to hear that bullsh!t, get a bullsh!t tour of a bullsh!t shop and drive another 40min back.

2 observations:
1- this be for the people located in the tri-state area NYC. Specially for those visit Long Island pretty often for car work
2- they also chipped the corner of my bumper by the headlight. It was just so small that I didn't care much at the time. Specially after being so excited for finally having my intakes on. Which little did I know, it would be a headache later.

Be careful guys !!! Be careful !!!
