Sorry to hear about that. But
Sorry to hear about that. But, yeah, you are correct---every repair needs to be pointed out by the mechanic to ensure a repair was done/ Zip ties and electrical tape?! Sounds like they kept the original drive shaft on and tried to balance it in the worst possible way. If that's the case. I would recommend finding another mechanic to confirm the "repair" and demand your money back and take the car elsewhere---you cannot expect anything good to come out of shops like this.
