I can definitely understand your situation and your frustration. It would also make me angry if I wanted my car fixed back to original condition and it wasn't done. Being in the body shop business, I know Maaco does three kinds of work...bad, average, and excellent. It depends on the honesty of the consumer...ie...a person walks in to your MD clinic and tells you they have never had a drink in thier life...but are an alcoholic...and becuase of that, it may be a futile attempt to diagnose something that may be due to another problem. Very common in your pratice. Very common in ours.
There may be someone who comes in and says...I've just been in an accident and I am filing through insurance..but I don't want to pay my deductible. So what happens? We all know that if you are in an auto accident, you hit the lottery right? You have a $1000 dollars in damage and you are going to get $20,000? No...not the case. In fact...I was SO angry at my dentist of 10 years! He had been cleaning my teeth every 6 months for 10 years and charging Aetna $50 per cleaning. I left my job and he wanted to charge me $200 because I didn't have insurance for it!
Seriuosly? Aetna has billions and is charged $50....but I have nothing and am charged $200? You see where this is going. One consumer cant be determined from another consumer. If you deal with 100 people a day...you cant possibly determine whether this is the poerson who wants to get over on the insurance company, or that doesn't care, or that won't pay for thier services. Honesty on what you want to get done. Honesty in your communications with people. Honesty as a way of life will bring everyone much farther. PS...a hood has nothing to do with a bumper. It does not make it jut out on each side.
You needed new left and right mounting brackets for your bumper....they usually weaken in a front end collision. They are plastic...for your car...they cost $13 a piece...you should have agreed to pay the extra $26. But, you weren't up front and honest and got what you paid for. Even doctors don't do surgeries and supply stints, artificial hearts, blood transfusions etc. for free. In fact, the last time I checked...it was $5 for a single cotton ball! Honesty will bring you a long way. Be straight forward about what you want and people will give you a full, complete, and satisfying conclusion
