I'm sorry the mess Maacco made of your car. There is no excuse for such shoddy performance from a "reputable" franchise". I can only hope that some legal action can eliminate that franchise from continuing business.

Ok. So you have a lot of evidence. Call corporate and tell them they have a last chance to send you quickly a check (better a wire transfer) for the amount you want. Otherwise on top of your legal case you will post video and pictures on every car forum and media out there and that you will also call the news channels. Tell them that you are a teacher or trainer with access to hundreds of people which you will tell the story and show pictures. Since they were a little freaked out with the first video maybe they will listen. Good luck man.

i agree with Alex, call corporate and explain your evidence. you saw how quickly they reacted when they got wind of your last video. imagine if they know you have worse

i would tell them to get their check books ready.

I am telling you every news station in the state would be chomping at the bit to tell this story !!

After following this post constantly Im VERY pissed for you. I would grab that video the guy has and hold onto it. The people at this place are obviously a joke and should be shut down and pay for a brand new interior, and a proper paint job by someone professionally. Please keep us up to date.

Every fiero has a story, It's our job to keep that story alive.

Go get them and be sure to use these terms when speaking to your course of action!
1.INTENTIONAL INFLICTION OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS

The tort of intentional infliction of emotional distress has four elements: (1) the defendant must act intentionally or recklessly; (2) the defendant's conduct must be extreme and outrageous; and (3) the conduct must be the cause (4) of severe emotional distress.

2. negligent infliction of emotional distress

The tort of negligent infliction of emotional distress (NIED) is a controversial cause of action, which is available in nearly all U.S. states but is severely constrained and limited in the majority of them. The underlying concept is that one has a legal duty to use reasonable care to avoid causing emotionaldistress to another individual. If one fails in this duty and unreasonably causes emotional distress to another person, that actor will beliable for monetary damages to the injured individual. The tort is to be contrasted withintentional infliction of emotional distress in that there is no need to prove intent to inflict distress. That is, an accidental infliction, if negligent, is sufficient to support a cause of action.

Well, since getting the car back, I have had all sorts of problems with it starting. I had this issue before I went to MAACO, so I unfortunately can not blame them for the ONE thing LOL. I started another thread for just the problem, to keep this one more on track with just the build. I have have yet to find a solution to the problem. I will be getting new Pick-Up coil in the mail tomorrow, and will try to get that installed this coming weekend.

Yep, lawyer time. I think they're just screwing you around. Sorry to hear about your bad experience.

BTW, doesn't JimmyS paint the whole Fiero, panel-off, for a reasonable price? I know you two know each other, and are just on opposite sides of the state.

No. And he probably wouldn't thank me for it, either. Just not a fan of MAACO. What's funny?

If I found someone that needed RPO stickers, I'd mention you.

Fortunately, he doesn't leave FL, so he probably won't be after me here.
