Usually, the dealership sends the car out to be fixed and painted at a body shop, they don't do that type of work. If I were you I would of checked around to see which body shops does good work rather than taking the dealerships word. You know, visit the body shops, see how the garage looks, what type of cars they are working on, how well they greet you.

that's what so upsetting i did my homework. the dealership where i bought the car has it's on body shop on site. i figured they would know there stuff.
but it didn't work out that way. i know they will make it good.

lol, no you didn't. Just because someone owns a car, doesn't mean they know how to drive it

Know what I'm saying?! I've been down this road and all I can tell you is talk to other people (use internet also) about paintwork done to their cars and go from there. Took me awhile and found a family run business near me and they do great work for a good price.

Thanks for the advice. Just hope i don't have to use it again. If you get my drift!
