Car Repair

I have a 2001 honda civic thats been running fine since we bought it 2 years ago. we put an alarm on it then and its never given us any trouble. last week we noticed a plastic burning smell from the engine & a few nights later after it had been driven, the car would not start back up. the next morning we went back to it & it started. we went to a shop and they thought it was battery acid corrosion on the coils around the battery, they scraped it off & the car worked fine. that night after we had driven it for a while, we went to get back in & it would not start again. this time we had to get it towed. this shop said it was the alarm. they disconnected it and charged us $200. we drove back home, made a stop, got back in the car & it would not start again! the car was towed back to the shop now they say its a different problem and that the $200 we payed has nothing to do with this problem. obviously they never fixed it right in the 1st place and want more $. what are our legal rights?

Contact your state board for auto repair and get some advice. be sure to document ething that has gone wrong with the car and ask around for a nice mechanic that can give you a second opinion.
