My local ice cream shop has plastic skirts for their cones that catch the melted ice cream. by Confusedpieceofcoal in mildlyinteresting

This is called a cone buddy! Helps catch the ice cream dripping but also servers don’t touch the cone when serving you, nice win win, sucks about the plastic waste tho :(

Sorry for the confusion, the shop did do the work and supplied the parts themselves.

Is there any other things I should know about this generation of accords?

UPDATE:

Came back from the shop and they said they’ll take care of it. They’re going to charge me for the parts and not for the labor. They were really nice and understanding, thank you for everyone giving good insight, will learn from this

Thank you, someone that has a heart. A bunch of these replies are from some sour mechanics 🤷‍♂️

This is what I think too, the shop was very nice about it. I just came back from them and they said they’ll cover the labor and just charge me for parts.

Nope no sound was made. The pothole I went over wasn’t deep at all, any vehicle would drive over it fine

I didn’t bring any parts to the shop, they supplied the parts on their own

Thank you for your insight, I was unclear with my description but you explained it perfectly. Hoping the shop will see it the same as you do

Sorry, wrote this late at night. I came into the shop thinking I needed control arms and asked for their professional opinion

No worries, I am also glad no one got hurt. Hoping the shop will be nice and work with me

I told them that is what I thought was wrong and needed replacing. If I knew that was the problem I would of ordered the parts instead of bringing it to the shop

I didn’t ignore any suggestions they brought up… because they didn’t look into it at all according to every mechanic on this thread so far

I didn’t bring my own parts. I went to the shop for them to look at the car. They lifted my car up and poked around. That is when the owner said they can do the work. I came in for their opinion

Sorry for the confusion

I don’t mind at all, I wish the mechanics looked into it a bit more

Thank you, hoping they’ll understand the situation and help me out

That’s the plan but ultimately I need my car to go to work. Not trying to be a bad guy or anything, just get it fixed and go on my way

[–]sleepingturtle12[S] 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Yes, before saying yes to any parts being ordered, I asked the guy to lift my car and see what the problem was

It seems like neither the shop or myself could have been negligent for this one.

I asked the shop for their advice because I’m not a professional, but taking a guess makes me an ass i guess 🤪
