dealer fail

[BPandoli]

Waiting on my coworker to go straight to the owner. Hope very soon

Be careful to not let too much time pass.... I wish you luck!

Honestly, I'm not in your shoes and I don't know your coworker/relationship, but I would not wait for that. I would let that happen in parallel and go ahead and get the lawyer.

That's just me.

Good luck -- this is a crappy situation.

I would have to agree. Unless you are REALLY good friends with this co-worker and he/she is in turn REALLY good friends with the owner where there is constant contact between all parties, it's likely not at all a priority for them. They'll get to it when they get to it if they remember to get to it.

When I first saw this near the beginning of the thread, my reaction was that I'd hesitate to do something like this with a co-worker. If things go bad, it could create discomfort at the work place.

^^ this 100%

The phrase, "Don't shit where you eat" comes to mind.

I agree with the others who have said you should move forward with legal action. You seem to be giving the owner/dealer the benefit of the doubt when they clearly haven't earned it.

Considering it’s been like 2 weeks since OP said his coworker was gonna talk to the owner and no progress has been made I’m gonna go ahead and guess they arent very close. Hire a lawyer or deal with a destroyed truck.

How u know for sure they applied on the salt? I had my undercoating done too on my 2019 raptor and they also did the front arms and I told them to remove it and they did. Yes, they overspray few parts but goo gone did the trick and I was able to remove it my self. U said the undercoating was already removed so sounds like the problem was resolved. This is unnecessary headache. Take this truck off-roading (main purpose of this truck) and it will resolve the problem with scratches underneath... it’s underneath your truck so who cares. This thing cost you stress and unnecessary migraines. Don’t listen this guys: “get a lawyer..”,“sue every one...”, trust me. If we only had this problems to worried about. The truck is still great!!

I would suggest a trip to the optometrist since you clearly did not see the result of their "removal"

I was thinking the same today. Friend means they can text.. hey bud you got some trouble brewing and might want to nip this in the bud before he lawyers up. Kinda know the guy means.... oh hey remember me I’m your cousins friend... we met at joe dirt’s wedding 5 years ago. Based on how long it’s taking I’m thinking your coworkers relationship is the latter.

Lawyer up and let the coworker do his thing but don’t count on it. I know the owner of the dealership where I bought my raptor VERY well and even though I’d have no problem calling him or texting while he’s on vacation, I wouldn’t be confident he would rewind a deal for a coworker because his guys screwed up undercoating.

Thanks for feedback and opinions guys. This guy I know from work is in a different department, we work for a large company. He saw the damage first hand and thinks the dealer should make this right. I’m at the end of my patience, which I have been more than. I wanted to give the owner an opportunity to make this right before I lawyer up and spread the word at work. Just about everyone at work drives a new car or truck, spreading the word about this will result in a loss of sales to people in my place of work. The guys that did the coating told me they didn’t wash it when it was on the lift and I was pointing out what they missed and things they shouldn’t have coated.
