IDK what to tell you, but I had a similar frustration yesterday when I took my car to get my oil changed, and they never called me either, I called them like 3 hours after.

And then they left my keys in the car, and the guy was like "oh the keys are in the car, they just pulled it out" which is bullshit because we had driven past the place about 45 minutes before and saw the car sitting out there.

Icon love. :)

I don't know how long exactly my car had been done, but we had light snow yesterday afternoon and by the time I came back to the garage to investigate my car was dusted in a thin layer of snow? So it had to have been at least a few hours?

And what would they have said if, by chance, someone made off with your car? "We misplaced it?" :P

In the ignition or just inside the car? I, personally, don't feel comfortable either way but I think the latter is unfortunately common. :( I hate it.

I get annoyed when they leave the car unlocked. That REALLY sucks.

Yeah, my Chevy dealer was OK in some instances... for the most part I would say. But they would never call to tell me when my car was done. Gah.

I'm going to start a dealership where the only men are mechanics (or if I can recruit a bunch of women mechanics). I think I would clean up, because women would feel comfortable bringing their car in to me, as I would not talk down to them.

I would still rip them off, of course.
