You're serious aren't you? Les Schwab is one of the most popular tire places on the W/C.

Dan that sucks!

Yes I never heard of them.

Topar lives in Virgina
We have none here. I thought it was a body/paint shop.
How did that damage total your vehicle?

Didn't we have some company that sounded like that that was a two bit vehicle painting company?

i thought they dont fix it if it is more than some percentage of the bb..

by my calculations, the above prices end up being 70%

IMO I would buy the wheels on my own, buy this set and pick out the best one and pocket the cash.

I won't comment on the headlight, but I've found numerous ones for under $200

You won't be getting any flack from you insurance company will you? I let my bro in law drive my truck one time, and some jerk rearended him. It was the other guys fault, and my insurance company did nothing at all, but they raised my premiums becouse I let a driver, who wasnt on my policy operate my vehicle. They also threatened to cancell me if it happened again. I didn't even wind up with a new bumper, its a good thing it was an older truck with one of those hardcore boxy bumpers.

The thing is that Dan and I used to work for Les Schwab and know how the company works! The first thing they tell us, is to not admit fault. Let the main office, and ins. dept deal with who was at fault. Corporate greed. I'll go there for certain things, and usually I personally watch them, and I only request specific people to work on my rigs!

Thats only when it is YOUR insurance co. and your car. If its someone else at fault, and their company is paying, they've got no say in whether you keep the car or they fix it. Its entirely up to you.

i assure you that i will be taking business elswhere, wich sucks for them, cause i have spent about 33k @ les schwab since 2001

BoG-ToY · « **Reply #57 on:** Mar 04, 2008, 08:12:21 PM »

they dont care about 33k dollars....they dont care about 150k thats not even 1% of there daily sales as a company. I cant beleive they are giving you crap about the damage...... I would think they would just deal....... I mean....park your car on the street in front of there building and put a sign on it saying "COME ON...LET THEM WORK ON YOUR CAR, LET THEM TEST DRIVE IT TOO...... freedom of speech baby.......

if all else fails, im doing the parkinglot thing like you said. good idea

Good business sense is to treat the guy who just bought 1 lug nut from you exactly the same as you would the flatt biller who just pulled out in his 83 cutlass with new 26s!

Point being, they should treat you with the respect that you're a customer, period! They don't need bad pr, and at this point they're getting it. This thread as been viewed 393 times thus far, and if it continues it'll be viewed much more. What happens when you google a business and find threads like this relating bad experiences? Does it turn you off of that business? If the person seems legit and aren't just bitchin, then yea, but I always try and read through the bs too. Just my
