WTF?! any one ever have issues with a simple gasket change? its a frickin GM trans... how hard can this be?!

and BTW, i was charged full rate for labor. it took about 90 minutes from the time i got to shop to when i left. i'd say they worked on the car for less than an hour and was billed $335 for labor! WTF over?!

the shop claims that's what the job costs at a rate of $110 per hour. it only took an hour! they have the nuts to charge for 2 additional hours?!!! will not be going back to this shop after they fix my shit.

even the dealer does me a better deal than that - charging only for work they do.
Do you mind to name the shop you used?
