Job was quoted to be 3 days and $X. After 17 days I called to come pick the vehicle up. Some of the parts hadn't been ordered by the end of the 15 days, so not sure if the 3 day estimate was ever an intention. When I went to pick up the vehicle I was asked to pay a higher price and told that was what I was quoted, $300 higher.
I took the vehicle back two times due to it wasn't driving correctly and the brakes weren't engaging properly. After the mechanic drove it and assured me it was fine I drove it immediately home and took it back apart. The wheel bearing was literally crumbled from where they beat an axle into it (evident from them having to grind the burrs off the end of the new case hardened axle shaft.). I replaced the bearing myself.
Note: I was sent home with a vehicle that wouldn't stop and one wheel was barely attached. No exaggeration
No castle nuts were used to retain the axle shaft which I thought was requisite, but they keep coming loose. And they did something to mess up the abs system for that doesn't work anymore. It will cost me as much to correct what they did, and to have the work completed that wasn't, as the initial work that was quoted to me.
Just sharing my experience.
