I recently got the rude treatment you describe. It is hard sometimes but try and see life from the shops viewpoint. They work in hot/cold conditions balancing customers who all have different needs and expectations. The shop has to determine the problem and be repsonsible for the result of the repair. There are many companies selling inferior replacement parts and many times the mechanics work has been held up because a not so professional parts supplier has sent an incorrect part or not all of what was needed to do the job. Shops make extra on the parts they sell you, but they are then responsible and liable legally and morally for the results. Most shops have to absorb a good bit of the warranty expense should the job have to be redone. If you drop your car off and come back to a repaired car with a warranty the extra charge may not seem so bad.
