Hello all,
My car AC stopped working. So took it to a mechanic who I found on google with lots of good reviews. He worked from his own garage.
He checked for leaks first and did a pressure check and said he found to small leaks, he showed me something that looked like two small washers.
He then topped it up, and it worked great for 1 day.
Then it stopped working and blowing warm air again.
Contacted him but he will not reply to me or return my calls.
I paid him via cash. Looks like I have lost my money. How can I avoid this in future? Should I always insist that I pay via bank transfer or that they give me a receipt? trouble is they might say "ohh yes will give you a receipt but then not give it to me"
Also whats the worst case scenario for a repair of my AC in cost?
thanks all in advance
