As I pulled up to Flagship Carwash on Forest Lane July 7th, I was approached by an underdressed, looked like he was off the streets salesman. He told me my windshield was chipped and he could fix it. I didn't see the chip so I declined. As I was getting my valuables managed he told me if I didn't fix it, it could crack and then I would be in a world of trouble. He then told me how the insurance would pay for it and blah blah blah. I told him just wait let me think about it. I wanted to go inside and have some coffee first. After sitting and relaxing he came inside and told me the repair was finished and he needed my insurance information. At this point I was irrate as I never authorized this procedure to be performed on my vehicle. I told him I was not going to give him my insurance information as he was a conartist. After fighting with him a bit, my car proceeded out of the exit end of the tunnel and I became a little nervous. I went to look at the windshield so he could show me what he fixed and it was cracked from one side to another. He told me that they offer a warranty and that the warranty takes the insurance money they received and applies towards a new replacement windshield and I could pay the difference. I am usually calm but this had me furious. I no longer wanted to talk to him and proceeded to talk to the owner of the carwash who was not present. They explained to me that the carwash and windshield were separate businesses and sorry. They gave me the number to the "owner" of the windshield rip off business, a Bobby Gates.
Well after talking to this slickster he had supported his worker and said that I was obligated to give my insurance info and then they would fill out the paperwork and go from there, but I would still have to pay for about half of the windshield. This is crazy I never authorized the service, they broke my windshield and now I have to pay. The police say this is a civil matter and there is nothing they could do. This had Mr. Bobby Gates snickering. Please if you are reading this, don't let these lowlifes touch your windshield.
