Dealer strips car of stripes

[Snakey]

My friend had her car taken into her local Renault dealers to have the alarm fixed.
Now when they were washing it afterwards they somehow managed to take one of the stripes off. The manager said he'll try to have it fixed it, surely being a renault garage they should be able to do it tidly and properly?

 

[AlexG]

yes.

Letting the dealer wash your car FTL.

 

[yellowbelly]

blimey, do they use the bucket and hair dryer method for cleaning the cars then, nobs!!!

I would go mental at them.

Don't let them repair it. Demand a new set be fitted.

If they were scrubbing hard enough to take off the stripe i'd get a good look at the paint condition.

When they washed my car they put a dirty scrach down my n/s wing

I don't see the problem. Sure, it would be annoying that they damaged it but they've said they would fix their mistake.

Let them rectify it, then decide if you're happy with it after that.

How they did it I don't know, possibly jet washing it? But she was the one who noticed it and had to take the car back!

 

[fUbAr]

yeah jet washing would get under the vinyl and lift it. Easy fix, should be back to it's former glory in no time

i had something similar when mine went in to the dealers i brought the car from for the cam belt change. they washed it, which it didn't need anyway, and pulled the 2 off the cup 172 badge on the passenger door. i didn't notice until i got home and they denied all knowledge, to make it worse renault no longer stock them so can't even replace it myself
