Wheel trouble already. When I picked up the pickup I found that the a/c wasn't working. I had some trouble with it before I left so I figured I would get it serviced and recharged and I would be golden.

Once I had it inspected I stopped in to see about an appointment for the work. The woman behind the counter said I would have to bring it back on July 23. But then the a/c mechanic said he could do it then and there. So I left the truck and went to work.

When I picked it up later that day the mechinc explained that the a/c relay wasn't working. Their parts computer was down and he couldn't get another relay but he gave me the part number so I could get one myself. He told me he had taken a relay from another system to get the a/c working.

My suspicions were aroused. I asked what systems were no longer working but he said that everything was fine. I didn't pursue it. I paid the bill and left.

On the way back to the room it started to rain. I turned on the wipers and then found out what wasn't working. He had taked the relay from the windshield wipers!

Let's think about this for a minute. It is the beginning of the rainy season. If a car needs anything its good wipers. And what did he disable so I could ride in cool comfort?

Ah, the adventure continues...
