Can you ask around for security tapes?

About 6 years ago I had valet somehow take about a 7 inch long and 2 inch wide scratch out of the hood scoop in my 04 WRX. After about a week of complaining to anyone I could get ahold of in the valet company, they agreed to pay to get it repaired.

It was insignificant compared to what you are dealing with, just make sure to be persistent with them! Good luck with getting them to cover the repairs (as they should)!

^^^^ Back to this---WHERE did it take place? I live here too and just want to be sure I dont make the same mistake-- or give my money to an establishment that hires/employs/ blindly permits this to happen. Tephra valet mode for me.

this may be a no brainer but doesn't the engine actually log the past events of the last drive? couldn't you just hook up a laptop and see what happened? cops use this to scan wrecked cars to see how the car was driven before the point of impact

Quote: Well I am glad that you are taking this so well but I think I would probably take legal action with them or at least get a lawyer to contact them to see if they budge on it.

Honestly though I am guessing the car would've crapped out soon after regardless if they managed to blow it up that easily.

I'd hate to think that some poor college kid is going to get his *** handed to him for something that was inevitable.

Did you check the mileage before you handed over the keys?

If he went for a joy ride then string him up.

I asked this question earlier and he answered.
Quote: The place that did this is a place called Avantis and is in Dallas Texas. They usually don't have a valet service but did at the time because they were having some sorta special thing that night (apparently street races out back or something (sarcasm))
However, I do have a question. At which Avanti did you eat? Were y'all at the Fountain Place Avanti or the one on McKinney?
