Good news about my Car situation!- update!

upon further evulation from ford- the car only needs $1800 worth of work which we authorized yesterday!!!!!!

and "alledgedly" I can go watch the tapes- Jake can't- the garage manger "feels threaten" by him

honestly all he said to her was he would take EVERY legal action against her!- when she kicked HIM out of the garage that we paid for!

we really just want to move on and focus on buying our first home together-I can't wait to move out of this building

the had the nerve to TELL us how much we should tip the building people- I would have tipped more I was happy- but I prefer to tip the nice super across the street who rents me my parking spots!


UPDATE- finally some proof- Ford just confirmed the damagae was caused from some one repeatly trying to smoke the tires with the traction control on- something no owner would do-

we are getting it in writing!

of course- this means the car has $400 more of damage b/c the fly wheel and broken and turned blue from the cutch being burned out! but it proves exactly what we have been saying all along!

Yea!! Still stinks that happened to you guys, but at least the damage isn't as costly as it could have been.

So, did I miss it? Did the owner of the garage say the manager lady was the one who took it out? Have the police seen the tapes?

Re: Good news about my Car situation!

I want to press charges- provided I see the tapes

the cops are the ones arranging for me to see the tapes- he doesn't "have time"

so I guess if I see something- then he will do something- I hope

he is really a jerk- the only way I got this far was by asking for the name of his LT- then all the sudden he was trying to help again

you don't have to pay for the $1800, right?


At least it is getting worked out - how annoying though

we do as of now- or if the parts look damaged in a way they shouldn't be at 20K miles- ford will cover them

then I will have to sue the garage- in small claims court- which is so much better then if the bill was $10K

but they haven't even reponded to my lawyers letter yet!

Re: Good news about my Car situation!

I was just wondering about your car situation earlier today!

Glad to hear the damage isn't that much $$. Hopefully you get to see those tapes soon.

the wheels of justice turn slowly

but I refuse to give up!

I would settle for an admission of guilt and an apology at this point

it would go along way!!!

Good luck Beth! Let us know what's on the tapes. I don't see how they can bar Jake from seeing them. I think he should go with you and stand outside the door!

If they were smart, they would just throw you $2 or $3 grand and call it a day. Going to court is going to cost them way more in the long run and it would most likely be settled in your favor anyway. Good luck!

it's not a bad idea- we could have alot more problems with this car down the road- and more repairs later

the new take 3 months to order and it has all the after market parts he wanted to add anyway- and at least they will be under warrenty

but I am the one doing my own nails and clipping coupons - and if he trys to tell me I can't buy the house I want- I am going to smash the mustang myself

when he gets home I am just going to lay that out for him!
