Default Bad Luck!!!

I just wanted to share with the board my terrible luck for the past month. It all started one month ago when I woke up in the morning and found that my landlord had bumped into my car, bending and scratching my front left side panel. Fortunately he paid for eveything, and I took the car to North Shore Honda were after a week and $2,000 I got my s2k back.

I got the car back on a Friday, but Saturday I had to leave for a business trip to Rio for a week. I got back the following Sunday, and it was beutifull out so I decided to go out for a ride. 10 mins after, I had crashed my car into a side wall. I got into a corner a little too fast and the rear kicked in and I lost control of the car. Dammage report: Broke the rear axle, the rim on the passanger rear wheel, and scratched the whole passanger side. I got my car 2 weeks after the accident and had to pay $10,000 for it to get repaired.

I got the car back 2 weeks ago, and yesterday I was enjoying the beutifull weather home, not even driving the car, when I hear my alarm go off. I go out to see what had happened and I see this freacking ice cream truck inserted in my car. The guy was backing up, didnt see my car and took the front bumber, left side pannel, and left front wheel with him.

I just can't believe all this has happened in one month. Sorry for the long post, I'm sure that is of little interest for you guys but have to get this out of my system some way.

You're kidding about the $10,000 to repair right? If your serious, they got you good. A job like that does not cost so much.

Your luck is even worse than you know .You should never ever deal with North shore. I know sales manager for years and they do not cut a break at all on their cars .
Their attitude is since they are located on the gold coast of long island they should extract as much of it as they can from their customers.I know several salesmen and the sales manager for over 10 years.The money guy dave who does the bank work and tries to sell extended protection plan that honda does respect is another one .
Carol in customer service is top shelf she is a standout there but she is surrounded by all that crap .She goes the distance for the customer .She is also hot . My advice to you is to date carol and due business at ps honda paragon south shore or the hardtop guy in ohio for better care .
