I don't think this is correct, legally. They should put the tractor back as it was, and that didn't include a torn seat and dented metal work. As a matter of customer service and reputation, the fixes are probably realitively cheap compared to the cost of the bad reputation. The fish is mute, expressionless.

Good deal. Glad they stepped up and did the right thing. If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | |||

Just got a call from the repair shop indicating my new replacement seat has arrived and can be picked up. :thumbsup: Certifiable member of the gun toting, septuagenarian, bucket list workin', crazed retiree, bald is beautiful club! USN (RET), COTEP #192 | |||

I'm kind of curious as to what is legally required? If I take my car in to be serviced and there's a hail storm, is the service place liable for the damage? Does it make a difference if it's normally parked outside (instead of in a garage), as it would have been damaged anyway? What about parking at an airport and a hailstorm, is the parking lot operator liable? (Yes, I know they have the fine legalese print all over the tickets abrogating responsibility.) Where's the line between what is and isn't required? I get the whole customer service angle. I'm curious about the legal side. Thus the metric system did not really catch on in the States, unless you count the increasing popularity of the nine-millimeter bullet. - Dave Barry "Never go through life saying 'I should have'..." - quote from the 9/11 Boatlift Story (thanks, sdy for posting it) | |||

I don't presume to speak for jhe888 (plus, I've been retired for a couple of years now), but I'm thinking he might be saying that a bailment was created. There are different types of bailments, but one of the general principles is that the shop (the "bailee") is liable for any damage to the property while it's in their custody. _____________________________________________________________________ “One of the common failings among honorable people is a failure to appreciate how thoroughly dishonorable some other people can be, and how dangerous it is to trust them.” – Thomas Sowell | |||

"Seething" about damage done to a wore out, 26 year old seat that likely cost 50 bux to replace...you sir, have about run out of things to worry about..... Still waters run deep, so careful I don't drown you. | |||

So you actually inspected his tractor seat before the hail damage in order to make this "factual" statement? _________________________________________________________________________ “A man’s treatment of a dog is no indication of the man’s nature, but his treatment of a cat is.
