so back in january we had a big snow storm. I live in GA so it pretty much shut our entire area down for a week, because we're not equipped to handle the tiniest of flurries much less a full blizzard. Long story short, after most of the roads had cleared up I went out for the first time in five days. I hit a long patch of ice that had ruts dug into it, from so many people driving thru it. And my right front tire bounced out of the rut and it just sent me spinning. I was going pretty slow like maybe 35 but I spun right into a telephone pole and cause just under $10 grand worth of damage. Its been in the shop ever since.
Six weeks later the shop calls and say that its ready. I go pick it up and by the time I get home I notice that there is a wicked exhaust leak and the horn doesn't work. I take it back the next day and they promise to have it turned around in one day. Well they contracted the exhaust work out to another local auto shop. Then I get a call this morning that while test driving it after fixing it, they ran off the road and now its worse than it was before.
They claimed they were on a little side road and swerved to miss a deer and ran off the road. I know for a fact that this is a lie because I drove all up and down the road and there was no indications of anyone driving off the road. So I went to the shop to ask what happened and they said I would find out in the police report and that they don't have anything to say to me.
That just screams shady. I was as nice and respectful as possible, but you dont wreck my car and then disrespect me when I try to find out about it. So now I'm taking a sheriff deputy up there with me and making them tell me what happened and i'm also going to make them pay my car note until its fixed.
I am beyond pissed at this point. It looks like its going to be at least another month until I get it back and this is just unacceptable. Thanks for letting me vent. I'll post pics when i can.
