I'm very unhappy with work!

The mechanic changed the wrong wheel bearing then where upset that they had to do the work I had paid them for.
While changing the correct bearing they did such a poor job, in the process damaging the CV joint and other parts of the offside wheel.
The car is now being professionally assessed by another mechanic to ascertain the full extent of the damage and is writing a report.

The car is currently unsafe to drive.

Initially I was happy with his diagnosis. The battery was replaced by him and I was told it was a faulty starter motor and not the battery so he offered to do the job for 300.
I decided to buy the starter motor and I contacted the aa as I was covered. They came to my door and fixed a simple battery issue. My starter motor was fine. When I returned the starter motor to the store I lost 15 pounds as a fee. All in all he cost me money and diagnosed the wrong problem waisting a lot of my time.
Not at all happy as it took the aa 5 minutes to fix and no parts were needed

Reply from Tarquin:

We l have responsed and what he has failed to tell you there was a witness to all of this and people who are not qualified mechanic should not self diagnosis

Tarq was a first rate mechanic who understood the problem and got on with it straight away .
He made it easy for the layman to understand the problem without all the techno mumbo jumbo .
A lovely bloke and I would recommend him to anyone wanting a job done on their vehicle.
