Message There was an annoying "click" sound coming from the brakes. So I took my car to a local shop right. They looked at it and said I need to have my front left side wheel bearing replaced cause it's really bad. I said "fine do what it takes to fix it". It cost me around $250(parts+labor for everythin) which I didn't mind. The night I got the car back...as soon as I started drivin it over 10mph, the anti-brake light came on. I called the shop back to ask'm what's up with it. They told me to come back the next day. So I went back, they said the guy that does the ABS diagnostics has a family emergency and they didn't know when he'd be back. So I waited for a whole week. I ran the diagnostics and it said the left side ABS sensor is bad. But of course they said they have to check it themselves. And just like I expected, they said it's true that the ABS sensor is showin up as bad according to the diagnostics but they didn't see any physical damage. So they said they didn't do anythin to it. They actually had the balls to say it must be a big coincidence.

You take the ABS sensor off or remove it or smtn when you change the wheel bearing. So they must have done somethin to it right? That light was never on before. It started doin that after they messed with the left wheel bearing.

For the record, in case you don't know this ABS sensor goes for $750. Yeah just the part costs that much which is why these bastards deny that they're responsible.

So I'm taking legal action. I will teach these bastards a good lesson.

And yeah, I already found the sensor for $30 used and it comes with a warranty.

Advice: Never ever take your car to a cheap shop or any shop that can't handle Zs. Pay more if that's what it takes and take your Z to a trustable and honest mechanic who knows about the car...
