-1. Why give credit to something you're supposed to do?

you are one helluva forgiving person. the initial notions, actions, in actions on their part just screams out negligence and frankly very poor business ethics. you are alone on this one I'm afraid. remember where I work.

Looks like OP posted on Richmond Subaru's page, we all know his real name now

Someone below him posted this:

I'm also looking at it from a third person, if this was my car, i'm sure i'd be livid, wanting to smash their windows everyday or something..

I guess I just meant that it's nice to see an actual resolution, even if it took social media to get it done.. but not that it 'makes up' for all the crap belaud had to put up with

ahh, all this media pressure subaru got

i wonder if richmond subaru would have done anything if it wasn't for subaru canada coming in to resolve this.

Hope this GM learnt his lesson : Treat others the way you would want to be treated. Cause this bit him in the ass hard

p.s : whoevers Cody.. you're such a troll

I imagine that's what he's already doing. You see, when he's not working, he probably likes his E. Hastings hooker to smack him, repeatedly, with a riding crop. So you can see how this was all a misunderstanding.

This is a problem with society these days.. you are supposed to get +1 / participation prize for things you are supposed to do in the first place? Raises and bonuses automatically for you just doing your job?

To Belaud: Can you post the black STI's VIN? So people in the future would know?
