Title: Customer at work... [Print this page]

I'm a mechanic....

Had a guy come in the shop today in a 2012 Buick Rendezvous...
Demanded that we change his speedometer cable because his speedometer wasn't working...
I informed him that his truck did, in fact, not even have a speedo cable because it's all electrical now...

This guy demands that is the problem, and orders me to install one...

It took me 15 mins of explaining to him how that just isn't feasible...

THIS is why our shop prefers female customers vs male customers...

Woman will come in and tell you she hears a funny noise in the front end... the man will tell you he needs a wheel bearing, and if that doesn't fix the issue, he expects it free

Long story short... Find a mechanic you trust, stick with them, and if they tell you something as fact, don't argue with them!!

I just tell my mechanic what is happening, what I think about what it could be, and I leave the rest up to them.

i told my mechanic what was exactly wrong and that i just didnt have the tools to fix it. he didnt believe me, took 3 hours looking for the problem, told me i was right then charged me for all of that. sometimes mechanics just suck

This is how I run my business, I usually told the customer to stfu in a nice way and let my mechanic to do their job. You need to practice to make them look stupid and confused. It will do the trick.

searching in Google to fix your car is like searching WebMD to diagnose your sickness, lol

Well, unless I do actually contract some disease or something, I would prefer to live past 100

but my old friend WebMD can make even the slightest cold seem deadly
