So I decided to get my alarm installed at a local shop. I usually do ALL my own work on my cars but since I dont have the time and dont have the patience to figure out all the wiring I decided to take it to a local shop. I went back and forth between places like BestBuy or the local corner car audio shop and decided to go with the local car audio shop. They gave me a good deal and assured me they would do a clean job. So I drop the car off and they tell me 1-2 hours.

3.5 hours later I call and they say 45 more minutes. 1.5 hours after that and they say 10 more minutes so I decide to head down there. I show up and hear my car started around the back of the shop and then hear it reving probably 6k+ and hitting the rev limiter. I am sure they were doing burnouts out back in the alley way and fucking around with my car. I run out back to try to catch them but they were already down the street. I went into the shop and long story short I told the owner I cannot have him driving like that. The kid pulls up in my car with a smile on his face and hands me the keys and says sorry.

Long story short again I exchange some profanity with the guy and assured him he should have the kid fired and I was borderline going to press charges. My car still smells like clutch 24 hours later.

Luckily the guy who worked on my car did a great job. He did some extra steps such as cleaning up my stereo wiring, hooking up a new high dollar fuse to my stereo, adding on a trunk release to my alarm and remote, and letting me know I could bring my car back for him to do a few more favors for free. The did lower the price slightly but definitely were not professional about the whole situation.

At this point I am just sending out bad reviews of their shop.

Just wanted to let you guys know to be careful of these local shops out there.
