Default Are all main dealers useless?

My Mum's car (Jag x-type awd estate) got rear ended a few weeks back. Afterwards it made a really loud banging noise and the car jumped forward so we insisted it was checked out by Jaguar.

The car went in once and they said there was nothing wrong and it was just a heat shield that had fallen off or something. However it kept doing it, so the car went back down. Apparently no problem what so ever. So car goes in, bodywork is done, car returned. My brother was meant to be taking it down to france yesterday morning but the car was still occasionally making this noise.

He got the RAC out and within 2 or 3 minutes he could see that it was a damaged prop shaft and potentially diff to!!!!!

How can it take an RAC guy 2 or 3 minutes yet have been down to Jag twice and not spotted?????

Rant lol
