Took my car to repair shop, they fixed it. Got 5 miles down the road, the tire fell off. Took car back to same shop. They fixed it again and a week later the tire on the other side of the car fell off. Had it towed back there. Did not approve for any repairs to be made. Not sure what they did or didnt do to the car but they say I owe them money. Under mississippi law can they keep my car? I am from georgia and my cousin is a mechanic and he says that here in ga mechanics have to get a court order to keep a car that had services preformed and payment was not received. Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
if you did not approve repairs they have no right to a mechanics lien. but it sounds like they are at fault (a tire fell off? 2 even)

Jesus you could have been killed from that someone could have been charged with negligent homicide.
call the local BBB (better business bureau) they'll tell you what to do.

tires did'nt just fall off someone f'd up and that shop is liable for their screwup
