is two months two much if the finished product was promised to be done in two weeks?...at first the mechanic shop took responsibility..what should i do now that i have refused my car w/a used engine instead of a new or rebuilt engine that was promised to me in the beginning and the rear lights have been broken while in the mechanic shop?...i have been waiting for more than two months for an answer but i haven't gotten a reply...what are my rights?...should i be provided with a temporary transportation if it is the mechanics fault that my car broke down in the middle of a freeway?...i don't want to take advantage of them but i want justice made so both the mechanic shop and i have an equal advantage to this matter...also the mileage record of my car is higher than when i left my car at their shop. i want them to be held responsible for the damage done to my car. also the mechanic shops manager has ignored my demands for a summary report of what they did to my car...PLEASE ADVISE!..HELP!

two weeks in time would be really good ,but two months is too long,they could have ordered a new engine and had it installed in less than two weeks,the mileage on the car may indicate they drove it to break the engine in,that's normal for that too happen,the time though is way too long,if they charged you for rebuilding it then you have a right to good re-built engine,if they installed a re-built or a used one in it, and you told them it was ok to do this ,then you may still have the right to have it all re-done,really you need to talk to a lawyer if they wont co-operate with you,the more time goes by,the weaker your case will get,good luck on it.

Get your facts together and then sue them in court?
I rebuilt my car's engine alone, in a week, thats with complications. With limited skills of right is tighten and left is loose.
I'm sorry but, get your car back, and find a better shop or have someone you know personally do it.
Shops aren't there for service, cars are money, and money drives the shop, not the cars.

Don't know about your state laws, but in Michigan if they won't do anything about it, you can complain to the state and they will do something about it. The secratary of state might be able to tell you more.
