Bleeding is over-rated.

The subcontractor of the shop that was supposed to do the work subcontracted portions out to another shop who on turn subcontracted the work out. Half the time no one even knows where the damn thing is....

I hope the CPU does not blush. Is that sub sub sub contractor wearing a rain coat? I hope your car's CPU is a female and likes male strippers. Does he play some good music to set the mood first or is it just a complete shock the the CPU?

It's still throwing srs codes, the mechanic is stumped and here's the kicker........they ripped the leather on two door panels, dinged the drivers door and now the drivers door doesn't close unless you slam it and doesn't open unless you yank it hard......the ****ing monkey adjuster wouldn't pick up his phone.....
