| - I'm searching for a new mechanic so based on the good reviews I thought I'd try Guan's. Simple job-- belts slipping, need tightening. When I dropped in, he said he could get it in in about 45 min, which was fine, so I left it. He called about 75 min later to say the vehicle was ready. Excellent! When I went back and checked, the belts were very tight, so far so good. Then I saw all the cutesy "Thank you" messages on his whiteboard-- looking great . Then he says, "I'll only charge you 90 bucks," says it like he's doing me a favour. This is a 20 min. job.
When I said, OK, you can charge me that, but I won't be back, he started saying that the mechanic took almost an hour. As we talked, that moved up to "over an hour." (Note the time line above.)
So I'll keep looking for my new mechanic.
