this problem has been solved

From the sound of the other thread, the mechanic’s hands are tied. It’s the transmission shop that kept sending wrong parts. That’s not this mechanic’s fault.

Why is it you don’t want to go there to get your deposit and transmission? Asking you to personally come get them doesn’t strike me as bad behavior by itself. First, you should never take legal advice from strangers online. This is a car forum, not a legal forum. Second, being hostile and disresp…
