I took my 1993 XJ6 to The Mechanic in Hayden Idaho. Well I picked it up after spending 2900.00 CASH on the thing.



.



He, owner Donald J Blanchard, was fixing the breaks, doing a tuneup, changing fluids, heater and ac repair and misc. items. While I was walking to get it I noticed it being driven by one of his mechanics around the block, testing it I guess, then he pulled it up in front of the shop and left it running with the door open. I paid the man, he insisted cash, he then told me "I dont ever want to see this car again", he gave me my reciept and I left. 2 hours later while on the freeway, I look down and my termperature guage is red line, this is bad I thought.







I then pulled over, the car died, I sat for a few minutes and check the radiator, no fluid at all, "[violative content deleted]" I said.







Well I called The Mechanic, spoke with owner Donald J Blanchard and told them we have a problem. I explained what happened and his response was, "good luck finding a good Jag mechanic" he refuses to warranty his work even though the invoice clearly states it has a warranty.







So now it seams that I have a Jag I just spend 2900.00 on that has at least blown head gaskets, possible cracked or warped heads, possible piston ring problems and who knows what else, until I get somebody to tear into it.







That is a lot of damage over 2 gallons of fluid, which I was charged for!
