where did you get a Camaro loaner car???

guess you can try to bring it to a dealer down there and see if they'll fix it under warranty.

Call the rental company and tell them it just stopped working. It's not your problem to deal with. A dealership won't fix it because it's not your car.

I read ALOT of posts like this in a Mazda 6 club thread. People locking the steering wheel and nailing the gas and blowing out the ps pump because they over pressurize it when its effectivly shut. If your beating on someone elses car and it breaks you should man up pal and get it fixed. You want to play you should be prepaired to pay if you break stuff.

Drop it off at the local Budget office and get another car. It's their car and responsibility. Complain bitterly that they gave you a dud. Let them get it fixed and (LOL) ask for a discount for your trouble. You will probably get a voucher for your next rental in the mail. No problem.

Cheers.

Pretty depressing how many people can't just fess up to abusing/taking advantage of other peoples stuff.

I hope Budget determines that you abused the car and they come after you for the repairs......You wanna play you gotta pay!

Reverse rolls for a minute...you let someone valet park your car and when they bring it back the tires are melted and the power steering pump has disintegrated......would you expect the valet company to pay?
