had my wife Camaro for 37 days to replace right rear quarter, turns out they broke the rear window and had to order from chevy that took over 2 weeks, but they lied to me the whole way,i finally went down to the shop and had a face to face with them while looking over the car it was done in 2 days.

Tell them to stick that car. Look for something else.

Your car actually has more damage than we thought so we are going to have to talk with your insurance company for the next 3 weeks before they authorize the extra $1000 of work that needs to be done to the bumper.

Me: the bumper doesn't even cost $1000 with paint..

Dealer: your car is the 45th anniversary and requires a special paint that is 4x the cost of the others

Me: -_- give me my keys now.

Today the shop is blaming insurance paperwork and the Insurance company is calling the shop lazy. Both of them asked me to be "patient". I said "...why?"

If Allen Funt pops up when I finally get that car back, I'm kicking him right in the vegetables.

I suspect you will hear that the wrong color came in, unless your up for baby powder blue , It has been reordered and will be 4-6 week for delivery .

Had to take car to paint shop in Ukraine by way of Palistine

homewrecker · 07-29-2014, 05:15 PM

I'm sorry but did you mention you want good paint? That'll be another 2 weeks, and if you want it to match, it will take another 3 weeks. By the way, if you get a survey call...

$3000 deer hit was 5 days here on my Nissan.

Rocker panels painted and replaced ~5 hours on my Camaro.

WTF?
