Taking Walser Mazda To COURT "Must Read"

[mspHtown]

so are you going to take them to court?!

 

[steedspeed]

Book a date at the local small claims court right away and let them know you have done so. They have no right to take your LSD and it amounts to theft. If you had an upgraded stereo could they take that too? I think not but it is the exact same thing. They are thieves.

Ok, well, working in a dealership i cant say i blame them too much. 1) For doing warrenty work on a car with aftermarket parts <i>relating</i> to the repair is amazing. We dont do warrenty work like that here and no where i take my mazda would do it either.
2) warrently claims generally require a core return to maufacturer. i dont know how they run things and why they wouldnt tell you that in the first place should you have been so adament about getting it back, and thats kinda where i would have my issue.
dealerships work differently all over the place. just trying to shed some light because we have customers that want parts back that we cant give them due to warrenty, if the manufacturer doesnt get their return we dont get paid. something to think about

yes but i had the stock lsd to trade with them. and the car was fixed cause i bought it with the mest up 2nd gear and they said they would fix it

dude, the first thing you should do is relax.

In your first post, you stated yourself that you "walked in and demanded to know where your car and LSD were".

Ever think of asking nicely?

Be nice until it's time to not be nice.

If you came in with attitude (sounds like you did), I would yank your chain as well.

Huffing and puffing and crying for Daddy and your lawyer won't help either. Are you 12 years old?

I'm shocked the dealer is doing warranty work at all on a tranny that was obviously not factory (Quaiffe LSD).

Swap the stocker for your Quaiffe and be done with it.

You'll still be left with an uninstalled Quaiffe though.

Must read??? I think not...try instant headache.

EDIT: I just noticed the date of this thread, someone bumped it.

dude whatever you do you better do it soon...if this happened in 06 and we are about to hit 08 in a month there is a statute of limitations probably of about 2 years. I hate to say this, but you will never get the Quaife back...by now it is long gone...either returned as a core with the trans or sold off because someone knew what you had there and screwed you. You can certainly get reimbursed for it though and if you told them you wanted it back before they did the work and they said you could have it(or didnt alert you to the fact that you could not if you proceeded with the warranty work) then that is stealing. Small claims court is the best solution, doesnt cost a thing to rep yourself and the place might want to just settle it. You can always sue them for the court costs as well as the LSD so that you do not pay a dime. It all comes down to how much time and effort you want to put into this.

yeah man with them (dealer) you've got to play smart not smart ass. they almost ****** me up too but i didn't accept them to work on my car.It looks like they want to do good but they always **** you up somehow, at least thats how I look at it. As far as court you're limit time is 2 years after the incident and should've opened the case as soon as you could as it could take a while to resolve. I had to go through court s*** for other reasons and it took more than 3 years to close the case.

I prsonally would not have left without it...Unless I was in cuffs.
