Such a simple task and they cave manned it.

Another incident where someone tried to break into my car and had actually pulled the door handle "all of it" away from the door. Took it to the dealership to fix it and they HAD to replace the entire door mechanism inside and out for some dumb *** reason. So after waiting 2 hours for the ******* to read the instructions he hands me the keys and i get in and drive out to the parking lot. Then just out of curiosity I parked, got out and tested the door from the inside "locked and unlocked" and then the outside "locked and unlocked" and what do ya know, the god damn door wouldnt open after it was locked then unlocked from the outside. Because he had installed it wrong even while following step by step instructions.

If they cant install kickplates and a door handle you think they can work on something as complex as an ENGINE? laughable

They know NOTHING about the damn Z and GTR, every time I see them working on one they have a wrench in one hand and a set of instructions they are seeing for the first time in the other. Your far better off doing the work yourself or taking it to an experienced well known mechanic that services all makes and models. Even then its a pain to find someone you can trust that wont lie and try to sell you extra parts and labor you dont need.
