New problem?
You may get your car back only to find that the garage has caused a new problem.
Generally, the garage would be responsible for any additional fault or damage, ***but it’s up to you to prove that this happened while the car was in the garage's care.***
It’s possible that the new fault could be completely coincidental and unrelated to the original fault or repair." [emphasis added]
