Repair Shop problems

I took (drove) my car to a repair shop to have them do a diagnostic test. I told the mechnic that the car wants to die after running for 5 to 10 minutes, then it takes 1/2 hour before it would start again.
The mechnic (son) calls later to tell me its the ignition control module. He could put one on for $$$. I told him "Thanks, but No Thanks, I can't afford $$$ at this time."
I get to the repair shop and pay for the test $70.00. The other mechnic (father) proceeds to ask me where the tow truck is, because my car does not start. I replied politely " It started when I dropped it off".
To make a long story short..My car is now outside there fence, where it sits ,because it won't start. What can I do? Shouln't I get my car back, the way I dropped it off, BEING ABLE TO START???
Thank You, Diana

This problem is getting worse by the day. My email address is greennground02@yahoo.com. Please let me know if you would be willing to give me some more advice? Thanks Diana (csi-diana)
 
well, the test showed that the ignition module was bad. not their fault. Go buy one yourself and put it in. Don't know what year or model you have, but the modules are not very difficult to do.
