Legal Question in Consumer Law in Michigan

Auto Receipt

Can an auto mechanic deny you the right to obtain a receipt showing the work that was done on your vehicle? I was issued a receipt at the time of the work being completed but moved, lost the receipt and would like a copy for my records.

Re: Auto Receipt

what is his reason for denying you a copy? does he claim he doesn't have it anymore, perhaps due to the time that has elapsed? While certain companies have an obligation to maintain records, unlike hospitals or medical facilities, most are not "required" to provide you with additional copies simply because you misplace yours. Do you really need the receipt for tax or warranty purposes? If not, then drop it. Not worth your time.
