Getting even with shops who overcharge, do work without authorization and perform bad

As an independant I have found a solution to the poor work and overcharging the dealerships hit indy's with.... Many times the dealers do "make work" to inflate their shop bill and bottom line on our backs. So after following a proper complaint process up through the chain of command and being offered a "discount" on my next service, my attorney suggested that I file a small claims lawsuit against the dealer. I did and it worked.

 

Filing a small claims lawsuit against the dealership and they settled to my satisfaction. But make sure you have all of you ducks in a row before you do this. My attorney could have gotten the same results, but he suggested I use the small claims route, since I had winnable case and didn't need to use an attorney.

 

Exactly...... I can understand windsmith's confusion as he is just playing trucker without any investment of his money in the business.

 

I cannot name the dealer due to the confidential settlement agreement i signed. I can only describe the situation in generalities as not to violate the agreement. Just pointing out to others that one does not have to bend over and accept it. You can fight back.
