Very Bad Brake Experience

    Just had a very bad experience with a well known garage. Left the car in to get a calliper sorted and some pads fitted, only to find out after that my brakes now do not work.

    Accord to the branch manager there is some air in the lines, but I'm very shocked that I was left to drive the car home in such a state. The car is completely 110% unsafe to drive. Having paid for this job to be done and to be left with no car to drive for another day now.

    The garage have agreed to tow the car back now, other than that anybody know where I should go with this?

    Rant over :o

    They didn't bleed the system so, nothing short of negligence.
    How did the branch manager diagnose it remotely?

    After I first found the problem (before even leaving the car park) I went straight back in and showed the manager. He said to drop it back in the morning.

    So then I went on my way home to find out exactly how bad the problem was, then gave them a call when he asked me to drive it back up.. That is the last thing I was going to do.
