Part of the problem at my local shop is that they have a couple mechanics that are just flat excellent. Great reputation so they get busy and hire some young and dumbs or just plain dumbs to do the "easy" stuff.
My latest fiasco was I had a fork truck operator hit the door of my trailer and and knock it off while backed up to the dock, He tried to deny it. It's still up in the air whether the co going to stand behind it or if I'm going to have to get an attorney involved.
Any way I put it in the shop with instructions to fix the door, service it out and check everything.
I go to pick it up and it trips a breaker and no lights. "They checked everything"??!! Seems they fried some wires in the channel they heated to straight the door hinge. SOO they fix that and I go back hook it up do my walk around and head out of town.
That night lights are now blinking with the bumps going down the road. Seems the connection at the box must have gotten hot and cord is not right. I replaced cord and that resolved that. Next night I stop for coffee and do my walk around and have a clearance light out. Seems the guys cut a wire and the crimp connector was't tight. and came apart.
I get so frustrated with having to do quality control checks after repairs. I really get cross ways with mechanics in truck stops as I won't pull it out till I double check there work.
I could write a book and I've only been operating semis for 7 years & still a rookie.
