its not a criminal matter, so calling the police will get you no where but a report. A report of the events that allegedly took place at a repair shop that you hired to perform wk on the car. Which I am sure the shop will say that its standard that they test drive the vehicles to check the work they did. Then YOU would have the burden of proving they did not need to "test" drive the car in order to check their work, IE list of shops that its not the "normal" mod of operation to test drive the vehicles they have performed work on. Or that they dont usually test drive the vehicles when they do the repairs you had done

NOW if you find damage to the vehicle, IE scratches, dents or what ever, then you can make a report of criminal damage, but still it would be a civil matter and you would have to sue the store.

Look at your service agreement they give you when you dropped the vehicle off, I bet it says something about them "having to test drive" the vehicle.
