In my case it was 3-strikes: 1/ misdiagnosed a broken bellhousing (starter twisting upon start and sounded like a poor battery), so sold me a $100 battery. 2/ put the new bellhousing in and left off the magnets driving the cruise, then accused me of them never being there in the first place. 3/ stood me up for an appointment HE MADE WITH ME. I waited for 1 hour after the appointment time and that was the last time I saw/heard from/anything ... him. He's a recommended shop for Salt Lake on the Vanagon.com list for vanagon work and TIICO installation. No way in my book. I now have that peaceful, "I'll get what I pay for and when" feeling in my gut rather than that "I'm screwed and trapped" one. In other words, I worked with him until it became obvious.....1st time shame on you, 2nd time shame on me. No more "permission" on my part.
