Well first off:

You get what you pay for and your pay for what you get.

Secondly:

Was the shop licensed, bonded and insured?

That's pretty much it man; it's going to come down to civil court and I think they only go up to a certain amount.

The burden of proof is on you.

Find reviews of their shop, gather all photos, audio recordings, etc. and speak to legal consul .

Next time don't be such a cheap and impatient fuck.

>Next time don't be such a cheap and impatient fuck.

This isn't the place for that dumbass. Pretty sure he feels bad enough without you needing to point it out to him. Grow a brain please. Just tell him what he needs to know. this board isn't to get fucking slammed for your mistakes, otherwise read your post and tell yourself to quit being a fucking faggot and have a little respect for people.

It was a licensed shop. It was just a nice looking mom and pop shop and I didn't think a $30 should that requires tightening wheels could possibly be fucked up. If I had a jack and power tools even my girlfriend could do a rotation. that's like the most basic shit a mechanic can do.

He says he's going to repair it, I'm just concerned it'll be worse or if he will go cheap on me and it'll be unsafe.

I paid for a rotation, not to have my axle, and several other things to be repaired.

I have documented everything and have recorded/photod everything.

FYI I was impatient cause it's a sports car and when my steering wheel is wobbling all over the place at highs speeds I am at risk to getting into an accident, so no need to be an asshole. I could've easily just waited and then lost control of my car due to needing that maintenance.

This really helped, thanks anon.

I will let this dumbass fix it up. I spoke with him and I'm going to bring it to Infiniti to get inspected afterwards, if they deem it unsafe, I will demand for more repairs.

If he refuses to fix, and/or doesn't do it right, this should be pretty open and close right? I have several witnesses, a police report with admittance to negligent work done to it, as well as the damage done to it due to the job, and of course lots of documentation showing what happened as well as the negligent towers messing up my exhaust.

>>17528543

If you have all that info you're in a better situation than most. A lot of people fuck up by not getting enough important info like simply taking a fuckload of pictures.

Also keep track of costs of what this car problem has cost you. You can keep it aside and ask the judge if you can add that to the cost of repairs.

>>17528553
I'm mainly just worried if my axle is fucked up. I've had the car for a few years and added lots of miles. All of my aftermarket work doesn't necessarily add to the value of the car. (I'm a dealer so I know all the market values and how it works). I'm afraid that if the axle is messed up if it'll result in the car being labeled a total loss. I bought it 2 years ago for about 15k, and spent around another 15k on it, but now the clean trade value is only about 11k. Brand new the car was about 60k, so the axle with eveything else could very well be more than the value of the car.

>>17528561

Can you ask your good mechanic to check it out before you take it to the infinity?. Ask him if he can do a simple test to see if the axle is totally fucked. If he can give you a simple "it's fucked", then tell those guys what he said and why he said it. From mechanic to mechanic they should realize that it really is damaged and let them know that there's no way the axle was damaged before this shit and they need to fix it. If they don't you will seek the fee for repair plus any additional costs by small claims court or whatever court you need to go through.

>>17528237
Aight I used to work in a law firm and I know about this shit. In someways your case is a slam dunk and in someways you're fucked.

In you favor:
There is no fucking reason that should have happened. You could have fucking died. This is super serious and there are plenty of cases of this happening and the companies pay out the ass.

The complexities:
The fact that 2 entities are involved really sucks. Each may try and put all of the liability/damage on the other. They may even go full retard and say the towing coming has to pay for all of the damages because the wheel going loose barely did anything, and vice versa etc.

The auto shop may offer you chump change and threaten exorbitant legal fees if you don't take it. I can almost guarantee that the towing company will do this.

WHAT YOU SHOULD DO:
Get a lawyer. Ideally, he just sends letters to each company outlining the events and how boned they are liability-wise, and get them each to pay a decent amount. You would absolutely win if you took this to court, the only down-side is it would cost money and it would take over a year to get it from today. But, most likely they settle I doubt either company would take this anywhere near a jury, they do not need the press and would lose.

Good luck! sorry for your misfortunes, but glad you're safe, anon.

I'm pretty sure if you take your car to a shop you should expect it to be done at the very least adequately. It is not unreasonable to expect the wheel to be secured you fucking mongoloid. How out of touch are you?

>>17528578

When did I say he shouldn't expect that?.

>being a stancefag
Deserved it.

>>17528589
when I quoted you instead of the person you quoted by mistake.

sorry

>>17528237
lel those bolts were way to tight.

>>17528237
This is much less than what you deserve for driving a lowered vehicle.

>>17528576
I am going to probably take it to my gf's brother. He works on porche and other highline vehicles so I'm comfortable with him and his 30 years in the field. I'll see what this guy does to repair it then take it from there.

>>17528578
thanks anon. I really appreciate this. I don't want to go the legal route, but I figured it would be pretty open close case. Hopefully these guys understand the magnitude of the situation and avoid this.

Wasn't stanced and is only lowered about an 1inch but it was just because of upgrades I did to the car to optimize performance.

This is how the car stood before, it looks lower cause of the ground effects on it. Which are factory.
