I had this little Citation when I was a kid. Took it to a shop to have the passenger front half shaft replaced. I knew the mechanic so it seemed like a good place to go.
Get my car back and its making the same clunking. I stop and look, they changed the drivers side shaft. WE had discussed this in great length there was no confusing the problem with the passenger side vs drivers side.
So I figure what the hell its probably good to just replace them both at the same time. So I take it back and pay to have the other side done. I get it look underneath and yep both sides done. Goodo! 1 1/2 KM down the road im leaving smoke like a stunt plane! Stop and look under neath and the collar that keeps the sleeve and seal inside the transmission is just flopped off and sitting on the halfshft.
So I take it back and there is no way in hell that they will assume responsibility for it. Guy says it was bolted up tight when I drove away. So now im gonna start knocking some teeth out. So the guy says well lets take a look t it. Turns out the seal is destroyed and a replacement one can not be had any where. Discontinued!
I calmed down enough to refrain my self but I never got a penny from those losers on top of paying for 2 new half shafts installed and the car went to the wreckers.
