Fluid Damage?

If the lock is that touchy what do owners do when it rains ?

This is the write up

Is there supposed to be an attachment? It's not here. Regardless, distilled water doesn't conduct electricity, so try again repair shop. You might as well have been cleaning it with mineral oil.
 
I did a bit of research on the matter. Apparently they were riddled with door lock actuator problems.
 
I agree that there is no way you did this. I would ask to see the replaced part, parts before paint anything. The mechanic wrote it up that wasy because the guy told him that was how it happened. I'm betting that was written by the service guy before the mechanic ever touched it. I worked for a large tire company. Everyone saw deep pockets and would try to get us to pay for all kinds of things. I would ask the dealership who wrote that statement on there, the service writer or the mechanic. I don't do this for a living, but even if. I did I would refuse to pay for it. If it goes to small claims I think you would have plenty of evidence to prove you weren't responsible. Also a rattling in the door would indicate a broken part not water damage.
 
So far he threatened to write a bad review about my business for not reimbursing him. I never said I wouldn't reimburse him, but he says that I can have the part and do what I want with it because of its just gonna sit in his garage. I am going to pick up the part and am going to get it inspected by somebody. its not over yet but ill certainly keep you guys up to date.

I know when Inlook at reviews if I see all positive then one negative I don't pay attention to the negative one. I have years of experience in retail, but I think the average person is the same way.

It's a bad situation because I'm sure you've got to be 99% sure he's trying to screw you, especially because he tried with the vent first. Then there is the 1% chance it could be a coincidence. The one thing you're sure of us that you didn't do it.

I would get a copy of the paperwork from the dealership and go over there and find out at what point it was written on the paperwork that it was possible it was caused by liquid.

I used to run 150-200 customers through my store every day. There is like an eighth of one percent of people who do this kind of stuff. Sorry you have to deal with him.
 
So true. When I look at reviews, I'm easily able to weed out the ONE guy that's got some kind of vendetta against the business. I have one on Facebook, luckily he didn't go to Yelp too. So big deal, I don't even really use Facebook for anything. Of course, he also went three doors down to one of my regular every other week customers, which is how he saw me, to tell him I wasn't allowed in "his" neighborhood anymore and not to do business with me. My customer basically said "Yeah, sure buddy" and I pulled up to do his cars two days later. The guy and his wife both came outside while I was working to stare me down. Keep in mind, I've never even met the guy.
