My 99 Mack got water in the fuel from East Coast in Petersburg, VA. I 295 & route 460.
The truck died at the pump, wouldn't start. East Coast had it towed to the Mack Dealer in Richmond, VA off of route 10 for repair.
The insurance company for East Coast paid $5800. to have the injectors replaced and the fuel as well.
The truck is missing now, but running. The insurance company for East Coast gave me $7500 to call it totaled.
The Mack dealer charged me $300.00 to replace an oil sensor that the insurance company didn't pay for. And it cost like $45. online to buy one and 30 seconds to replace sitting on top of the motor.
The fuel filter was full of rust yesterday when I changed them, Mack only replaced them once.
Now the insurance company for East Coast wants all my taxes which I have given them to find the lowest number possible to pay me for the lost time, lost wages. 50 days.
Bad Diesel/Water at East Coast, and the Mack dealer is even worse.
