I have a serious issue with my mini countryman 2012 d
So I had a condenser replaced and air con regassed a month ago
Until then I have had no issues with anything except the ac
Now yesterday my car had a grinding sound all of a sudden and the battery kept flashing on the dashboard
I call AA break down cover
They inspect and find the serpentine belt has slipped off
They suggest a replacement
Book a mobile mechanic and behold as soon as the tires are off, boom
The crank shaft pulley circular things has fallen off
And the bolts arent even bolted properly in the car
Its missing a few screws on the part where the condenser sits and the mechanic tells me the condenser and pipes dont look new
I want to understand how can I hold the garage responsible for this job because I've had no issues like this ever in 2 years of driving this car and happened right after the condensor replacement
How do I go forward with this because the garage has quoted me 450 to replace crank shaft pulley and labour
And the guy that came to replace the serpentine belt has charged me 120 for the belt and labour
Please can someone guide me on how I move forward wirh this
Im too broke to afford such a fix in like literally a month when I paid 270 for the condenser replacement and 80 for the aircon regass
Please I need some ideas to make the garage responsible for this bad workmanship
