  • Reminder when using parking garages

    Icon on 51st street did in our fender the other day. We were lucky that it was on the visible side of the car when they brought it up. I have been trained to check the car over whenever getting it out of a garage, but am sometimes lazy.
    They will likely take car of it, I need to get two estimates and submit them, then we'll see what happens. First estimate came in over $1100

    So, remember to check your car carefully when they bring it up. And when they say "that looks old," or "that was there before," ask for the manager and insist on filing a claim. The bigger chains are all used to dealing with this.

    An afterthought: I was glad we didn't use the valet at the Sheraton.. I think we'd have a harder time if the hotel and the garage started pointing fingers at eachother....

    Ugh, what a hassle, sorry!!! Did they tell you, or did you notice the damage? Because there is no way they could not be aware that did in your fender, with $1100 worth of damage.

    If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

    BTW, I'm still keeping track of how many times you annoy me.

      I noticed it as soon as they brought the car up. The driver tried to say it was there before, so I insisted on seeing the manager, who took a photo, filled out an incident report, and asked me to get two estimates. No way is it really going cost that much to fix, I just have to find a body shop that isn't around the corner from the Aston Martin dealer

            Most of the garages we go to with valet check for and mark any damage on the ticket we get. That way there is no dispute.
