so last night I towed my 97Box to my mechanic where they gave me new battery and poped my hood. Dorve the car home just fine. Lterally THE NEXT MORNING the car wont start again. I called the shop and they were far from caring. they just told me to have it twoed back in and they "would be happy to look ta it again." Now i feel totally ripped off. I how can they charge me to fix the car just enough to get it home and not even be able to drive it the next day. I don't think it is the battery, the car tries to start, but just can't get there. And now for the first time since i bought the car the enigne light is on. i can't imagine what on the emgine could have gone wrong over night. do you think the mechanic could have done somthing?? Once again, I need some advice. I have had a long week...
