Replaced tailgate around Christmas after a collision, and now noticing condensation inside a taillight. Body shop says they’re not responsible and are quoting $250 to replace. Please advice.
Edit: Thanks for all your advice. I’m going to ask my insurance if they’ll cover this as part of the original collision claim. btw, I posted the same thing to /r/mechanicadvice at the same time, and haven’t received a single reply there till now. Happy to see lemmy doing great as a reddit replacement.
Whike there are shops that do break things to get more work, they are not that common. Cars have issues all the time that will keep the vast majority of shops busy without needing to manufacturer their own business.
Not fixing things that insurance paid for is more common.
