F*ing car wash. A new kind of hell
So I finally decided to get my 200sx washed up, with my back i cant wash it myself, so before meeting with the grandparents, me and my son and wife take my 200sx threw the car wash. Never EVER have i had a issue before with a car wash.

WELL!

I should of noticed this, but the kid lining up cars seemed new, and it seemed like he was sending cars through a lil faster than normal. I get on ignoring his motions because im better at judging to keep from hitting my tires on the rails, get on perfectly and he sets me through, like really fast. 3/4 of the way through, the soap is getting sprayed from my windshield when i see the hardbody 4x4 in front of me OFF THE TRACKS. Im blaring my horn, reving my engine cuz the magnaflow exhaust is loud and the guys not moving. Im yelling put the fuckign truck in gear and MOVE! as i then hit him. He had plenty of time ( he said his truck had died). Well i then feel a THUMP behind me and about 10 secounds later another light thump. I was a freaking oreo getting pushed into this truck and pushed from behind. Im the only vehicle that received any dmg cuz i took the brunt of all the force. The shut off the thing FINALLY after the car hit the one behind me. My bumper is messed up in the front its shifted, right light is now leaking water into it on the corner light. I got like dust from the hit that fell in the lights. My se-r emblem is missing from my grill. My back bumper got RAPED by a washington license plate, it was like cheese on a cheese grater.

Now we all get out, and park by the vacumes, the hardbody has no dmg, said his truck jumped the tracks, he tried to move and he killed it...well why not restart and move? The lady mazda has only dmg to the plate, and then the attendent takes the info, and i ask him, so hows this going to be taken care of?

He tells me, well, monday you will get a call from our on site claims adjuster to talk about this, but you may want to get the other peopels insurance info. I ask him why, this is clearly the kaady car wash fault, you guys didnt put the truck in front of me on the tracks right, and clearly were not paying attention to stop the tracks ? Their insurance should not even be involved, its on you guys. (Just in case i took the others info so we can get in contact if they try to screw us over). So now i need a new front bumper, right corner light, possibly headlights because it broke the seals on them and dust and water and shit got in there. And a new rear bumper.

The collision wasnt really a hard one, but you know when u push on something slow, and u push harder and harder, things dont get smashed, but they get moved, and start to crack. It was like being a nut in a nut cracker. What a great way to start my day. Had to call my sons grand parents and tell them we were going to be late for lunch, and i jsut got our 08 fixed after a hardbody rear ended her. Apparenlty me and hard bodys are not getting along right now.

Fuck that guy operating it. If you did all that and he seriously didn't shut it off then that guy is a retard. That company better be the onces to pay up for the damage.

^ oh i agree. I think the hardbody guy accidently turned his wheel, but still. 4 cars piling up in there, they should of noticed somethign was wrong and shut it off after 2. Instead i got to be a nut in a nut cracker. The wife says to try and look at this the good way. I can now find a lucinno grill, get the new headlights i want, and just get a junk yard rear bumper.....think im going to agree with her on that. Im pissed about this buy i got to try and look at the positive. Otherwise im goign to get a bad ulcer. Just to many bad things at once have been happening.

This is going to be a bitch to repair and I bet collecting will be a pita too. Sorry to hear.

Why not go to the ones with coin-op stalls and use the spray? Use the boy as labor.

lol the boy is 7 months lol. The pressure washer probally would blow him around lol. Normally i do, but iw as in a rush, and with my bad back didnt feel like bending much, so i figured the paint is shit already, why not. The way the universe just said fuck you to me lol.

Oh well, lucino front bumper, black housing headlights, new liuspeed corners, and a junk yard black sentra back bumper. Or coudl just put all the money towards a ve, its easily going to be over 800 in repairs. Insurance just paid 936 to fix the back bumper on our 08 sentra ser so, front and back with parts being a lil cheaper. Still goign to be a good price.

Heres 2 of the pics that have uploaded.



The lady behind mes car. No dmg, and the uber powerfull plate of doom that raped my cars ass. Ill have more pics up of it since i got home, my phone is being a pita and not wanting to upload to photobucket right now.

I called nissan as well, 250 for a front bumper, and 225 for a rear bumper cover. Thats the same price as my wifes rear bumper cover we just got fixed from a rear ender with the bitch not paying attention to traffic. Total bill for just to fix the back of her car, labor, paint, parts was 936 dollars after tax, so i figure since parts are the same damn price, and matching and shit, i should be looking at close to 1800 to fix my car. At a auto body shop, ill prob just take the money, but a lucino front grill, my black housing headlights, and buy my ve finally for my car and get a rear bumper cover at the pick n pull. Id love to have her totaly repainted though. shed be so purdy.

And i tell u, they look like surface scratches, but their deep, like someone took a knife and jammed it into the cover because of all the pressure slowly pushing into the car Poor girl just got back on the road and all cleaned up.

My now leaking and fogged headlight and corner, they never got any moisture in them before cuz i had put a extra layer of sealent on them when i got them. But yay, now their leaking.

You can see the bumper gap, the hit from what looks to be his hitch without the ball in it, the fucked up passenger lights, and my messed up plate.
