Took my car in to the dealer...scratched an curbed ftl
I swear, I always have the worst luck with this shit. So I picked up my car today from Chevy Chase Acura, and I noticed the first problem. 3 pretty decent sized knicks on my front wheel! I was beyond heated, so I went inside to talk to my service advisor. Its like they were just WAITING for me to come in and tell them, because after I did, they were *SO* willing to fix it. Anyways, I get in my car and leave. I get home to fix the shitty carwash I got (there was literally wet dirt all over the car...its like they just sprinkled my dirty car with water) and as I was fixing that...I discovered about 4 to 5 groups of scratches on my left side...one on the driver side door, 2 on the passenger door, and the whole rear quarter panel is f*cked up.
I'm pretty sure my miles went back too, because when I dropped the car in im pretty sure it was at 29,531 and now its at 29,528
I'm going to take the car in tomorrow to get "looked at"

2 weeks ago somebody? at my work took a key and went all over the passenger side of my 07 Silver TL-S. $1,100 Damage! 3 days ago an a$$hole in a parking lot didn't give me enough room and I curbed 1/3rd of a rear wheel. Another $350 to my credit card! I hope they fix everything like new, and KISS YOUR A$$.

You know, if they scratch my ride or do anything out of bounds when I come in for service, I ain't hostile if they come out with the quickness and apologize and hit me with it - before my car hits me with it. Take care of it, restore my shit, and we cool...But that lame shit of acting surprised once I quiz 'em on it?...fuck that!

Tell them when you take the car in for any servce that you DO NOT want it washed. I guarantee you all of the scratches (wheels and body) came from the automated car wash, as did the dirty watermarks.

Now whenever I get my car serviced, I tape a sign to the steering wheel that says, "DO NOT WASH!".

Careful with them....they use circular hand motions on their washing method! I dont let them wash my car...just FYI.

Sorry to hear about your car, JJaber06. Isn't it funny how we all buy these nice cars and take the utmost care of them, only to have greasy monkeys working on them who don't give a $hit about the kind of service they give you? If it's any consolation, you're not alone when it comes to crappy service from your Acura dealer. I hope you get your stuff cleared up.

I had the same experience with the Acura dealer in London, Ontario, Canada. They put 3 scratches on my car and was I pissed off. I notified Acura and the dealer called me to fix the scratches. They lalso washed my car and did not clean the wheels. Again I complained. I think from now on I will tell them not to clean the car. The dealers do not seem to have the same attachment to the cars as we do!!!!
