Re: mechical

If you have an estimate in writing they can't exceed that estimate by more than 10%. If they gave you a verbal estimate, you can try to hold that price, but without it being in writing it's really hard to prove.

You may have to pay to get your car and then sue under the Merchandizing Practices Act to recover the difference between the estimates.

Good luck
