| It's been a while and VERY hectic...here we go! |
| 07.08.05 (1:13 pm) [edit] |
OK, the school year finally ended. We took the kids on a one day vacation and had a blast! 2 days after (which was 6 days after school let out) the engine light came on in my new car and I called Volkswagon. They sent a tow truck since I live 3 hours from the dealership. We signed it over and DH took me home. Didn't think much of it as it has happened to me before.
Well, the next day I called around 11am to check on it and they said they haven't seen my car...HUH??? OK, it's a big lot, I'll wait. I called the tow company and they assured me they left it in the lot. SO, I called an hour later I called again....still no car! I called back and forh for several hours. OK, I called everyone I knew and decided that my car was stolen. The deal was......the tow truck driver is saying that someone at the dealership told him to park the car "over there" and driver asked service guy if he shuld bring the keys back up and he swears the service guy told him "no, leaver them there, I'll be ther ein a minute." OK, DUH, noone is going to say that. BESIDES...he got NOONE TO SOGN THE TICKET!!! SO, the dumb butt left MY keys in MY new car and someone else got to take it for a nice drive.
Well, at 6 we left to Houston to report it. A 3 HOUR DRIVE! OK, on the way home we called our insurance company! They said they will file the claim and afterwards will sue the responsible party. OK, GREAT! We are in business. The adjuster told me they wait 10 days and then finish the claim. Made it sound like it wouldn't take very long, like 3 days maybe. SO, day 10 comes on a Sat and I go buy a new car. Same car, just a year newer.
Well, we got the car and everything seemed fine. TWO WEEKS LATER they find my stupid car and the insurance hadn't settled up with me. UUGG!! 2 days after they find it the insurance adjuster calls and gives me and offer. (3 thousand less than I owe!). UUGG!! I wouldn't have accepted that anyway! SO, now I have 2 cars, 2 notes and insurance to pay for both! CRAP!!! Why do I do this to myself!
Well, turns out there s not much damage to my car. Lots of small dings and scratches, just no crahses I guess! BUT the car wouldn't start. I had to go 3 hours there to give them my key as the jerk who stole it....locked it and kept my key. UUGG
They SMOKED in my car and took EVERYTHING out of the front. Didn't touch the trunk though!
It was odd, someone else's license plate was under the back seat. I called the cops and they didn't seem to care! They never printed the car and I guess they let the thieves get ready to do it again!
JUSTICE SUCKS!
Anyway, so the insurance company is now doing a repair claim and they didn't even check ut the engine. It could be destroyed. It is a desiel car and VERY sensitive! I guess it's there prob!
I have someone interested in purchasing it when it gets fixed, so I think I'll be OK. If not, I guess I'll agressively try to sell it. It was a very good little car that got 46 MPG. Should sell quickly!
OK, that should do it for now. I guess I'll update after our court appearance with the tow truck company for ruining my summer!! Can you get money for loss of time???
UUGG What a wonderful summer!!!
