Dealership thrashes Camaro in for service, owner gets it on tape, goes viral

They need to give him an entire new car with all the bells and whistles to his wishes.

Unfortunately I suspect this is more common than not.

Yep, I suspect the same... bunch of damn crooks! This is why I have trusted places to take my vehicles.

I know a guy through my wife who works at a high end sports car dealership. Long story short he was trying to sell my dad a car with low miles that was babied one elderly owner blah blah blah. My wife is friends with his wife who happened to post pictures on her facebook of a roadtrip they took in the car through the mountains, including a pic of the speedo hovering around 150, my dad went another route....

Brought my brand new GTI under warranty 5 years ago to a dealership for some noise in the tranny (DSG) at low speed. When I was asked by the service tech if I was waiting for the car, I told him no, and my wife was going to pick me up.

Wife is running late, I decide to walk 5-6 blocks to a fast food to get some food. While I am seating there, I see the GTI with the service tech and another guy pull on the lot at fast speed, make a hand brake stop and a short burn out!!!! I wait for them to park, storm out of the joint, walk to the guy, get my car key off his hands, drive back to the dealership with the service tag still hanging from the rear view mirror, get to the service bay and honk until i get their attention and the attention of the clients waiting into the cafe/lounge area.... When the service manager ask me what the deal was he got an earful! And when he asked where is service advisor was: his face turned from pinkish, to white, to red in 5 second.

As a result: Extended warranty for free, new DSG clutch, new set of tire.... 1 service tech out of a job.

Wow, why is it so hard to find a good, honest mechanic... We always hear about the problems, but I can't remember the last time I heard something good about a mechanic... wow. Hope he gets restitution.

Now that is what I call Justice! Way to go! If only every time these cretins do this they get caught- eventually they'll all get real honest...

Maybe later ill post a near physical altercation and my subsequent banning from Go Toyota Arapahoe for an attempted service screw job by those assholes.

As much as I hate to say it, I still, to this day would gladly kick the shit out of the service manager if I ever saw him in person no, ifs ands or but's about it.

I went there a month or so ago to look at what kind of cars they had available. I stood around for over 10 minutes in the lobby before I was helped. When I asked about the FR-S, he told me they had just sold the only one they had, and that I should probably go to a Subaru dealer to see the BRZ, since they are the same thing. His words, not mine.
