Question: If a mechanic commits negligence and the car repair results in further damage, what legal steps can be taken to ensure compensation for the repairs and possibly a refund?
Answer: When you are considering requesting refunds and repairs due to faulty car service, you may consider proceeding with a demand letter that outlines all of the pertinent facts, breaches of actual or implied contracts, allegations of negligence. This letter may demand a full refund and additional funds for necessary reapirs. If further damages are discovered, an estimate from another repair shop are helpful to adjust the demand accordingly.
