Good luck . . .
I had a car almost totaled in 2000. But the insurance company (
FUCK YOU, GEICO, YOU COCKSUCKERS!!!!!) decided it could be repaired, so they paid for the repairs.
15 weeks later, it is ready to come out of the shop.
I went to the shop with my boss, who knows alot about this stuff. He advised me not to accept the vehicle until we do a walk around, and I am satisfied with the whole car.
He drummed it into my skull -- "If the car is not repaired, don't touch the keys!"
We did the walk around, with the Geico adjuster (
FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING FUCK!!) and the body shop manager . . .
It took 45 minutes and two sheets of legal-size paper to document all the little things that were wrong.
I wouldn't touch the car for another three weeks.
Cost Geico a little over $15,000 to repair my car. The loan buyout at the time of the accident was $16,900.
Assholes.
