The squirrel must have been the size of a small horse to cause that. This is strike three for my dealer. WineGardner Pontiac of Prince Frederick Maryland. I argued with them on the phone. I have to take it back tomorrow. They still insist it was caused by a squirrel. I'll show them.

The strikes:
Last year we took her brand new G6 GT in for maintenance, car was 3 months old, and they backed into it putting a hole into the bumper.
I took my car in for fog light issue and I got it back with no a/c and the right wheel well gouged up. I told them they have to order it with a request to be boxed or it will come in damaged. They didn't, it did. They fixed my A/C.
Took it in today for an oil change, found diff leaking, fixed (I hope they did it right) Got the car back with the right quarter behind the wheel buckled and under carrige bent, the left side has a small buckel and the mud flaps are no longer against the body.

Does anyone have photos of what the dealer did when they didn't jack it properly so I can have proof.

...

ripple-check with ripple-he had photos!!!
