Agreed. Yes its good you found and solved the problem, but it could have caused an accident, unforyunately, as the driver YOU are responsible!
Its the driver of the vehicle who gets prosecuted not the garage.
If I was you mate, i'd name them on the name and shame page and, if you are happy to do so, go and see them or find out if there is an organisation (like the good garage scheme) who can sort this out.
It could happen to anyone, especially if they no nothing about cars.
You put your faith in a garage, to do the job properly, and they put lives in danger. NOT GOOD!!
As I said earlier, its NOT your fault, but you are the one who pays the price, with your license, freedom and consionce.
This garage should be dealt with in the correct way, name and shame to start with and possibly shut down for doing dangerous work on vehicles.
