  • My question is have they already done the work and you don’t want to pay? Or do they say the work needs to be done? Two different situations.

    If the work has already been done be prepared to be sued in small claims court. The shop can also file a mechanic’s lien and take ownership of the vehicle and sell it to reclaim some of their costs. Don’t expect anything they sell the vehicle for to come off what you owe though because it will be racking up storage fees while they go through the process. I know you said you aren’t trying to be edgy, but just to be clear if this first situation is the case then you are a severe dick.

    If it is just at the point where they have given you an estimate and that is more than you want to pay then call the shop and talk to them. Sign the title over to them and maybe you can walk away from it.
