HELL. TO. PAY. 

So are they pissed about your trade-in car and taking it out on your new one?


This brings up a question for the masses.  When you pickup your car from any work, are you going over with a fine tooth comb before you leave the lot?  I never used to, but after the shop nicking my new wheel during alignment, and pictures like this I am thinking I might start, regardless of what work is done.

When we had to have an ECU Installed, tested, and Programmed, THE WORST Dealer,
"Who I only went to one Time"  Cracked the windshield (below the Wiper Trim Piece)
and Forgot to Tell Me, and of course we found this out three months Later "Bastards"

Yeah it is a really smoking deal compared to single washes at the unmanned places. Even includes tire shine, forced air dry, the final wipedown by hand. Hand wax jobs are only 20 bux after that too if you want one.

The wash here has a monthly deals from $20-$45 unlimited washes depending on what you want them to do.  The lvl 4 is wash, hand dry, tire treatment, vacuum, wipe down inside and windows in and out...that's what I have.

Dealer took one look at and said they would cover it no questions asked.... they have it now, provided me a loaner, and getting it to the body shop today.

Never had this happen before, so not sure what to ask for besides fixing their phuck up....

I'm pissed....

They took the paint off all the way down to the sheet the metal. They replaced the motor mount on the upper passenger side, road force balanced the tires, and 30 miles of "test driving"... it was raining when I picked it up yesterday but noticed this nice gouge this morning....

I know the Ford dealers inspect the vehicle prior to taking possession for any such repair order and certainly the same rule must apply upon releasing the vehicle!! Sorry for all the mischief . Z

No worries... I'm just pissed that at 9K miles I am already having non-factory paint applied...

Needless to say... I will not be going back.

Ouchie.  Time for a Deadpool hug from bpd.
No time for joking around hugs here. Not now. Certainly not for this.

Let's hope they fix it properly as my body shop would've told me about having to spray into other adjoining panels so as to ensure paint match all across. Especially with a metal flake involved.

Inspect the repairs closely Michael, and ask what exactly they did. Also, ensure that there's some type of extension on the paint protection as a result of this repair.

@ SHOdded, I'd rather send SBS a case of craft beer to consume while his baby's been taken from him yet again.

Thanks for the heads up Mike. I will be very anal about the repairs (threw you a softball there!) I am assuming they will need to blend it in which just pisses me off. And I told them if the flaking was not correct they were going to pay MY shop to get it right.

Didn't think about the pain protection extension... I will inquire about this.

And I appreciate the beer offer, but my kegs just got refilled.

The service advisor is an idiot... they offered me a loaner while mine is getting more work yet again...

This time I said sure as I am tired of having to load the kids up in my wife's car so she can drop me off...

He tells me that the loaner is awesome and is a great temp to use compared to my SHO... he pulls up in a C-Max... I politely asked for a mustang GT as it's the only car the lot that would keep up with my SHO...

C-MAX... base model turd... which is fine... but don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining.
