Legal Question in Business Law in New York
My truck was at a dealer for warrenty work. They forgot to add oil to it and had to replace the oil pump as a result. While there they backed into it and have now damaged the side of it requiring body work and paint. It is a 2013 silverado z71 LT with 34,000 miles on it. What recourse do I have?
1 Answer from Attorneys
You make a claim for property damage against the shop. If you do not notify your insurance company immediately, you take the chance that the delay may cause your insurer not to cover you if the garage refuses to make you whole. Put your insurance company on notice immediately and ask them if they will be able to resolve the scenario for you without increasing your premiums because it is not your fault. The pump scenario will not be covered by your company and you have to make a claim either directly or through small claims court to recover your damages.
