Cliffs: Takes Camaro in for clunk noise, technicians beat the **** out of the car for 20 minutes while being recorded, farts in seat, melts clutch, then talks to other people within the service department about how to charge the customer for a new clutch, then make a warranty claim two days later to cover the flywheel so the technician gets paid twice for the job.

Removed the service director portion, not really appropriate for here

Read about this, it's quite a disgusting way of treating a person's car

 

Wow. Just wow.

 

mannn id be so p*ssed!! hopefully the owner of the camaro takes them to court.

 

After working at dealers for years I'm not surprised. I hate to take my car anywhere out of my sight to be serviced.

I have seen bent axle housings on test drives, racing, people wiping off oil filters instead of changing them, broken bolts left in....I could go on.

 

I hope some heads will roll for this. "Josh" and the other idiot need to be fired, fined and banned from working in the automotive industry if justice is to be served. I hope the owner makes an example out of that dealership.

 

Thats just terrible! If that were my car I'd freak!

 

As posted by the car's owner on Camaro5.com...
2010 Camaro door panel



I'm not saying the recording is fake. And I certainly ain't gonna take the dealership's side on this. But I have a few things that bother me about this.

As quoted above, from the original thread on Camaro5.com, the recorder is sitting in the pocket in the door panel inside the car. The picture above is not of the actual car in question. I posted the pic to illustrate where the pocket is.

With the abusive driving that the mechanics did to that car, seems to me the mechanic would be able to see or hear the recorder bouncing around.

And I find it interesting that the mechanics just happen to have their incriminating conversation standing next to the recorder. How fortunate they didn't have this conversation about 6 feet further away.

If this happened just the way the guy says it did, I support him 100% If I found out someone beat on my car like that, I'd be pi$$ed off too.

Maybe it's just me being overly skeptical. But we all know of people who have made up stories on the internet just for attention. For one reason or another.

And the forum staff on that site closed the threads discussing it. Stating...

Interesting!

 

MAN! THat video is now marked PRIVATE and I can't play it

But I'm reading the message thread and just OMG! Unbelievable. That would have my temper flared up.

 

There was no actual video. Just audio from the guy's recorder with a series of photo gallery still shot pics of his car. You don't actually see any of the damage.
