Its not right to name names until its resolved.
When I get down there and suss out exactly what is wrong and why they've given different reasons each time - snapped bolt / worn thread / no part.

It's a ball ache tbh, being a mechanic and privately at that! If something happens your in the shit and the customer would expect it to be put right, Whatever has happened truth should be told but maybe a bit of a cock up happened? When i was rebuilding my engine i snapped the timing tensioner bolt in my m20 when I was doing it, took me absolutely fucking ages to remove it! If I passed the job on and the bolt sheared the mechanic would be sortin it out, nonetheless shit happens bolts break, heads round etc, which add the workload!

Sort it out privately instead of shaming the person, most of the shit I do on my car even little jobs turn into big ones! But you basically need to be cool and figure out what happened exactly by asking the mechanic to show you it, Instead of going round in circles just go and view the car,
