Safe to run and drive?

A guy I used to work with was a BMW mechanic. He told me he broke off an ear from a transmission, the service manager told him to just bolt the trans up and send it on. Not hard to believe but really disgraceful.

I personally would not use it unless it was free or I had no other choice.
That's Definitely a crap way to run a Business, Much LESS an auto shop for, I'm thinking, a Higher End Stealership! Mist have been a warranty... what other kinda trash did they send out. That said, it's a Mopar, Dude! They are Ram Tough!
