Getting my transmission changed

[AllenH427 10+ year member]

So I'm currently getting my transmission changed. I was going to wait there, but its now 4 hours later and they havent even started... good thing I went home. On the window, a paper was posted that said "Remove all stere (yes, not my typo, actually said "stere") faceplates. We are not responsible for any valuables inside the car."

So I took pictures of my trunk (amps, subs, xovers) at the place with it in the background, as well as my keys sitting on his desk for further proof incase anything goes missing. The dude just seemed fishy, a little too professional and slick acting. I'm pretty nervous. I took everything out inside my car, but they should have no reason to open my trunk (for changing my transmission fluid.)

Got any stories about theft at mechanic shops?

I'm not too worried since I took pictures with everything in the background, and also a time is recorded on the pictures, but I just don't want to have to go through the hassle.

From what I've seen people of any race are liable to jack stuff when a car is just sitting in a shop.

You failed by going home and leaving your car there, I would take a book or a laptop with you and sit your a$$ right there until they are done.

you have to think...they know their employees to post a sign like that...

Yeah, but why would they go into a trunk? And everything is hooked up, so if wires are just left laying around, it's obviously stolen.

You let someone change your ****** fluid? Pretty cheap to do it yourself, you get piece of mind AND you dont worry about stuff like this.....

PS - 4 hours is ridiculous, takes me 45 min
