I think that, to a lot of people, it’s easy to give up a tiiiny bit of a routine paycheck. Getting it all back later (possibly even more than you saved) can really help people, whether it’s paying for a large expense or paying off debt. Since they don’t have it in their own account, it’s easier not to spend it, I…

No I just messed up my withholding amount and they weren't taking enough and I didn't notice

Stop demonizing Tom Nook!  He gives you a house in good faith and never asks nothing from you ever, he don’t even give a hoot about your credit score, he’s a chill guy!

Seriously. My wife and I are currently looking into buying our first house, and I think we’d both love to have a greedy raccoon as our mortgage lender, especially since he lets you go months without paying a dime. 

Not only that, but from the rates he charges, I think he’s literally only charging you for materials, idk if he’s even charging labor. All that on an interest free loan.

i still declare tom nook a good guy. selling you a house w 0 interest and no plan on the loan isn't being greedy.

While yes the mustang can take the abuse, that is not his point. It was HIS car, not theirs and when you take it to a dealer to get repairs there is an expectation that stuff like that won't happen. Would you be happy if someone took your car for a joyride and abused it? Probably not.

You’re wrong about the clutch.  You can do serious damage to a clutch by riding it, which is sounds like there is a good chance this guy was.  

The car can handle what these idiots did to it

Can\should the termination of the employees be validated? Walk in and see if those guys are still around. It’s easy for the dealer to say that they have taken the matter seriously and have fired all who were involved to placate the customer and then do nothing.

I bet the same dealership would try to void the warranty if they saw the owner driving like this. 

Tire life impacted. Fact. Brake life impacted. Fact. Differential, axle, U joint, and clutch experienced stress and took away service life there also. The owner should be given a new car. When someone buys a car and babies it no one should be allowed to rob that from them. They no longer own a car that has never been…

Can I go into your home for repairs, get some leftovers from your fridge, watch some TV, go for a dive in the swimming pool and leave? Would you be ok with that? After all, the roast beef I ate isn’t some irreparable damage...

Especially the part about “Things are happening in this country...” with the owner being an Indian-American immigrant. I’m guessing they don’t treat white peoples’ cars this way?

No surprise we’re seeing tons of hate on dealers from Jalops. The owner was wronged by the dealer service department, and the service dept was slow in addressing the issue for the customer.

So you’re the type of person who wrecks other people’s cars? And are thankful merely for not getting caught? Says a lot about you as a person.

I think all of his demands are reasonable. The employees put unnecessary wear and tear of his car. There’s only one way to get that back: new parts.

You’re so far off base here, you must be a GM at a dealer.  3 guys stole his car. 

Yeah, that’s my thoughts. Refund the alignment, replace the clutch, give him a $25 voucher for the next time he gets work done on brakes or tires - you know, wear items that would get use and weren’t outright damaged by the behavior. Sood Went high with his negotiating and the dealer had room to come back to the table…

Key: they should work with him, they screwed it up.
