Mechanic is requiring that I be physically present at his shop!

imo the mechanic’s being reasonable to ask you to show up at the shop to conclude the transaction and sign the disclaimers & other paperwork. They might also want to personally show you some of the reasons they had problems solving the issues. If you don’t want to go I doubt you can be forced to appear at the shop. However the mechanic likely has a back-up option, to take you to court and then either you’d have to go the courtroom to defend your position else forfeit the case. I think you are better off just to go to the shop and bring a friend with you who simply observes what happens and what is said.
