How do I get unauthorized repairs fixed if the repairs don't work?
Question Details:
I sent my laptop back to where I purchased it (different state) to have hinges replaced under warranty. When I received it back, they replaced the hinges, and replaced the motherboard and internal wireless card. The replacement of the motherboard and wireless card were unauthorized. The wireless card does not work. It is past the warranty and I'm being told that they won't fix it. The laptop is now just over a year old, I spent good money on it for college and am getting the run around.

You need to now basically work this angle. You have people and a company who did work you did not authorize. If you have the work order or copy of email or communications clearly showing you only authorized the hinges, you are in good shape. Contact the company and go up the chain until this is resolved. This may require lots of phone calls but you will need to adapt and go with it. Second, contact your state attorney general to see if it can help you or if you need to contact the state attorney general where the work was done. Then you need to contact your credit card company (hopefully this is what you used to pay for the repair) and file a complaint. Most card companies can help you resolve this.
