      On 5/2/23 I took my vehicle into this transmission shop because my car has codes stating that there is an issue with the transmission. I spoke to the receptionist told her the issue that I was having it was no charge for the diagnostic test. Afterwards when I did get a call I was quoted and was told that certain things needed to be done to figure out what is wrong with the transmission. After the weekend they called me back and told me that there was not a person that could do the job and that I would have to take it to a different transmission repair shop. By this time ** quoted a smaller price and now out of money for nothing done. I still have the same problem and would need to take my vehicle to a different shop and pay someone else to do the job they have done. I did pay them the amount but do not feel its right to be charged if I have to go to another transmission shop. They didnt do the work and Im frustrated that now I have to pay someone else to do what I initially wanted done. I dont think I should have to pay as they didnt deliver the job at all. To have to pay twice is ridiculous and these types of jobs arent cheap. Please help me as I feel like this is unfair and wrong. Thank you for your time. If you have any questions about my situation Im happy to give you any information you need.
