I (23F) took my car to get an oil change and tire rotation, I waited almost 2 hours and than the mechanic handed me a piece of paper stating that both of my axles needed to be replaced. I have heard stories about them making stuff up so I said thanks I will have my dad check out my car. Mind you I bought the car used about 5/6 months ago and have had no issues since. I get home and my dad checks my car and says it is now leaking a bunch of fluid and there was a large tear in the boot. He called the place to ask what exactly they did to my car as there was no leak prior. They said they took photos and he lied and said “great can you send them to me so I can compare them to my photos” they than said they couldn’t send the photos because it would take too long. Well my dad’s usual mechanic worked on my car today and confirmed that they did intentionally cut my boots.
Is there anything I can do legally about this?
