I could be in the power seat for sure.... They never had me sign
the Call For Estimate etc Check Box Section of the Repair Order, no sig
from me at all, AND they didn`t even have me sign the credit card slip
either!!
I`m going to talk to my adjuster and let him see the car before deciding
what way to go with it.
And yes it`s all cosmetic. It won`t effect the value of the car at all.
Unless the body shop
completely screws up. uggggghhh................... HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

<pre wrap="">Agreed. It happened on THEIR watch, not yours. They are responsible for
the car from the time they take it, regardless of the form and signature.
It is a thing called negligence and that pretty well nulls out everything
else. If they act responsible, and something happens (jet crashes on
building, hurricane rips through) then it is your problem. If they leave it
outside in the dark with the windows rolled down and someone steals it, that
is negligence and they are responsible.
If you haven`t talked to a lawyer yet, RUN to the phone at 9 am and start
calling and talking to some.
Would you have bought this car if it had been wrecked? Probably not, and now
it is. It will go to a repair shop, not a restoration shop, so it will be
fixed, not restored, and that is a big difference. You`ll probably sell
within 6 months or gripe every other day for the next 5 years if you don`t
sell.

Sounds like it might work out. Be cordial next time you speak to him.
He might pick up your 250 deductible and tear up your bill AND
apologize if you go away, that is, go away happy. Then you could
just chaulk it up to a bad experience.
You know, you could get into a big deal where your lawyer can depose
his mechanics and staff, depose him, find out who was driving or lying
about who was driving, all of that testimony would just make a jury
mad as hell. When I was working for a car dealer many years ago we

________________________________________________
Got the estimate from USAA yesterday,
$1500.00.
Refinish the clamshell, refinish the bumper cover, replace
the licenseplate insert panel, replace all three spoiler sections, replace
the windshield.
I`m going to get the bodyshop I choose to do the rear lower quarters
and the rocker panels also while everything is out and mixed.
