I just have to be careful shifting into gear or park?? what?? but he wants me to pay him for finding the problem but not fixing it?? does this make any sense to anyone else?? cuz it sure as fug doesn't make any sense to me.. anywho.. my day is gonna be chit.. hope your day is better

so I just got off the phone with Chrysler Corp.. they have the part available just not currently in stock at their main location.. then I called my mechanic to get the part number.. he gave me the wrong info..?? but it is NOT the transmission.. so at least there's that.. the car IS fixed.. apparently.. the part needed HAS been replaced (not the gearshift control cable originally thought and NOT a wire?) and he'll be bringing it at lunch so in about 1.5 hrs..
I asked (to be 100% sure) if he'd let his mother OR his wife drive the car and he said YES, 100%.. it better work, he's been my mechanic for about 12-15 yrs.. but I still have a nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach.. I WILL be taking it to a friend who's retired with over 50 yrs experience as a mechanic, once he returns from his cottage up north.. which shud be soon enough.. as he's been gone since early June.. anywho.. I'm very anxious to get OFF this friggen roller coaster and get back to my regular, albeit somewhat crazy-busy, life.. |

Be happy and grateful that the car is fixed and you finally have wheels... as for the cost , I have gut feeling that your mechanic must have a thing for ya....but still needs some money for his time ... Give him the hug and a kiss ....just to keep him in good spirits . And if he asks you out for poutine ....go ....

I shud be grateful that the car is fixed?? the car IS NOT fixed.. he found the problem after me telling him repeatedly it WASN'T the transmission but electrical AND giving him a list of what CUD cause my issue, firstly.. and 2ndly.. he never FIXED it.. he disconnected the friggen wire/cable and left it dangling.. so dude.. would you pay a dentist just to tell you you have a cavity?? or would you pay him to FIX it.. ?? the car might work.. but it's NOT fixed! geesus you may not value your life OR that of others.. but I DO
plus if you haven't been following.. he's in his 30's (I'm in my 60's so twice his age and old enough to be his mother) AND he's married with kids.. I don't touch married.. never have.. never will.. |

[/quote Sure I would pay my dentist for finding the cavity, using the X-Ray machine ...doesnt mean I am gonna let him fix it.. Since he found the problem I would get it fixed else where...I am talking about my Dentist ... You and the young mechanic can fix your own problems .Didnt you say he was even driving the car over to you ....But its driveable but not fixed ...hmmm!! And he has been your mechanic since he was 12 0r 15 ....if the math adds up ....he is in his 30s and you have used him for 12 or 15 years ...hmmm!!! Not meaning at all to nit pick .....but since you didnt get the sarcasm I could not resist this retort .. Downs another Vodka and OJ and saunters out the Pub ... |

Hum so far it has been a busy day.. went to my brothers for him to show me how to work a few things at his house..He lives about 45 min from me. I will be plant sitting while he is gone for a month on vacation and yes he has a green thumb.. Backyard all around his in-ground pool are plants..Ohh poor me will have a pool to relax in while he is gone..
Ohh. but he does have a hot tub..
Then to the grocery store to get a few things.. well as much as I needed. Got it all unloaded and put up.. I'm watching my granddaughters dog this weekend, it's the reason I'm staying home instead at the pool at my brothers this weekend.. Was going to go pick the dog up but my daughter decided she will just bring the dog over later.. Sure the kids wanted to say good bye lol.. So I'm home relaxing.. Just ate lunch and yes a couple shots down.. I have no where to got..but my recliner.. Let the weekend begin~~
