Heres a copy of the fliers we've been passing out to the corvette owners in the area, (its been updated recently to include the owners name) if you want a copy or if you want to know more about whats going on contact theblackcobrasnake@yahoo.com be sure to tell him where you're from (classiczcars.com) so he knows that other forums are getting involved (nissan forums are here along with toyota, honda, etc...)

How would you be if you singled out the boss's car and just stood in front of it with a sledge hammer over your shoulder. No threats made mind you, just simply ask for ALL the repairs to be carried out.

I was reading up on it yesterday and I guess over the weekend he setteled with the shop and is getting the body work done. if you ask me its not enough, some of the pictures look like the frame is cracked. and if I remember right once the corvettes frame is bent there really is no way to permanently correct it. oh well, its not my deal. the dealership said that if he wasnt happy with the repairs then he could trade it into the dealership and they'd give him something like $17,000 for it. not enough if you ask me (1997 c5 with 40K on the odo?) I found a couple for 28,000 on the net. either way, I just wanted everyone to hear the story about Stewarts auto so you guys would think twice before they put your car up on a lift.

Can't these morons just admit they fuked up bad and replace the car? Seems like the owner should be able to take legal action against the dealership if they don't! How the hell do you drop a car off a lift?

if I was incharge I'd walk the poor guy down my corvette lineup and let him have his pick. the guy spent a long time fighting with the maintenance dept.'s manager and we finally got ahold of the owner and he was less than helpful. kinda sucks for the dealership because we're making sure that everyone knows what happened so they'll think twice before getting their car serviced there.

the guy tried everything, from going through his insurance company to try to fight it, tried the companies insurance company, the bank he got the car loan through, we got ahold of some of the "higher ups" in GM (they didnt care) we tried everything! no one would cooperate with the poor guy. we tried to get the local news involved (not interested) and all that good stuff and nothing happened.

given the "reasonable man theory" they should eat the cost of this one vette and given they guy a new one that way they wouldnt lose business from all the bad publicity they're getting now.

I guess it all comes down to the $$$ in the long run though....

:stupid:
