Email the general manager. Tell him you are never coming back and are going to the local media and will post on social media.
I am sure their general liability commercial insurance doesn't cover 80mph joy rides. That employee needs to be fired. |

IMO, the dealer needs to get you there employees car for a test drive at your favorite track, lets see how he or she likes it.

An accident would cost them 40-50 thousand dollars and maybe the tech's life. It would cost you nothing except a bit of time and hassle. That's all I'm saying. As it stands, the tech did a couple pulls, got over 80 once. It's a trivial amount of RPMs in your engines life cycle, and a trivial amount of brake wear. Is it right? no. Is it the end of the world and you need to go all apocalyptic on this dealership and report them to the local news and get the police to go after a kid. No. I wouldn't personally do that. I'd let it go after I was satisfactorily convinced that this employee was disciplined and made to understand the gravity of the situation. I might ask for a personal apology from the kid. That's it. |

You're last statement says it all and puts you and this punk in the same morality boat. I guess the OP should be glad you didn't work there, eh? |

If by different take you are referencing the operating temperature statement then okay you just didn't know. But if by different take you mean no big deal that someone knowingly and willingly abuses another individuals personal property so long as they had a moment of fun doing so, well that's just antagonistic to the OP and overall thoughtless. If this happened to you would you submit a post chuckling about how some service guy had a blast beating on your car but man was he smiling while doing it and you're pretty sure he had a good time so no harm done, I think not. Moving on now bud, think about what your saying.

Novato Chevrolet in California is another crap hole.
I will only go to large Camaro dealers in San Jose from now .

You can have your opinion--that it was malicious and he should be harshly punished as some in the thread suggested. That's fine. I disagree. You'll have to figure out a way to be okay with that Last edited by protovack; 04-17-2019 at 10:43 PM. |

I personally would contact the manager and have him HEAVILY compensate you, or it goes to court. I would DEFINITELY sue the dealer for abusing my property.

The dealer is a POS and has no control of their people. When I get a chance I'll go on Yelp and see if they have over all bad reviews. If it looks like a pattern I will leave a bad review too because with enuff bad reviews maybe they will straighten up and fly right. |
