What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?Texas
My transmission quit.
A transmission shop was given the symptoms over the phone and said he might be able to repair it for around $350. That seemed ok to me and I authorized him on the phone to have it towed to his shop for a diagnosis and repair estimate.
He says his inspection indicated more extensive damage and that a complete overhaul would be required and the cost would be $2000+
The blue book on the car is $900 on a good day if it was in excellent condition, with a working a/c... not this week.
As far as I am concerned I can't see paying over twice what it's worth and the car can go directly to crusher.
Do I have to pay the transmission shop anything?
