Research the repair center thoroughly. Look for reviews online. If there are a lot of negative comments about long wait times or poor quality repairs, stay away.
One horror story could be when a PlayStation was sent for repair due to a disc drive issue. After weeks of waiting, it came back with a completely different problem - the console wouldn't turn on at all. It seemed like they didn't even test it properly before sending it back.
I took my car to a so - called 'expert' mechanic. He said he needed to keep the car for a few days. When I got it back, there were new scratches on the body, and the interior smelled like cigarettes. And the original problem still wasn't fixed. I had to take it to another shop to get it properly repaired.
One horror story is when a guy took his vintage guitar to a so - called 'expert'. The repairman sanded down the original finish to try and fix a small scratch. It completely ruined the guitar's value and the unique patina it had. Another time, a person had their guitar's neck adjusted wrongly. As a result, the action was so high that it became nearly unplayable.
Well, here are some stories. A friend took his computer to a so - called professional. The 'professional' opened up the computer and somehow managed to break the motherboard. He then tried to blame it on my friend. Another case was a person who had their laptop repaired. After the repair, the battery life was reduced to almost nothing. The repair people just shrugged and said it was normal. Also, there was a computer that went in for a software repair and came out with a completely different operating system installed without permission.
One horror story is when a mechanic told me it was just a minor part replacement for my car's engine. But after paying a hefty sum, the problem not only persisted but got worse. Turns out they installed a wrong part.
One great Playstation 4 horror game is 'Until Dawn'. Its story is about a group of friends who go to a mountain lodge. As the night progresses, they are hunted by a mysterious killer. The decisions you make as the player determine which characters live or die. Another is 'Resident Evil 7'. The story involves Ethan searching for his missing wife in a creepy, derelict plantation house filled with grotesque creatures.
The most common is probably wrong neck adjustments. If the truss rod is adjusted too much or in the wrong way, it can make the guitar unplayable. Another is bad fret work. This could be from installing the wrong frets or doing a poor job of leveling them.
One of the common horror stories is the loss of data during repair. Repair technicians might not be careful enough and accidentally delete important files. Another common one is when the repair doesn't actually fix the problem. You pay a lot of money, but the computer still has the same issue, like a slow - running computer that remains slow after the so - called 'fix'. Also, some repair shops use cheap and low - quality replacement parts which can lead to further problems down the line.
One horror story is when a customer took their car to a repair shop for a simple brake job. The mechanic overcharged them by doubling the price of the parts and adding unnecessary labor charges. When the customer questioned it, the mechanic was rude and refused to explain clearly.
