Dealer mess up my laptop

calvino · 07-25-2007, 01:16 AM

Ok so my cousin took his car to the dealer because the had to paint the bumper because someone rear ended him,
I find out that the guy that do the paint jobs was friend of mine so I ask him if he could paint my laptop case in red :rocks:

he parked the car in the garage and left the case inside.

well some jack ass that work at the dealer move the car outside for some reason and left the car and my computer case in the sun for 5 days , the plastic part of my case melt :mad: and I have to get a new one and is like $120

I can't tell anything to the dealer since I can get my friend fired it sucks

the Z4 M red on my laptop look so cool

wow, 5 days in the sun, can you still boot this lappy up?.....no all laptops are built to withstand that kind of heat tourture...

That is ACER for you,

A laptop should not melt or deform while left in a car. There are tests for this to ensure this does not happen, but then again ACER copies what other companies do and build them with the lowest cost parts. They do not tourture test thier products.

So you got what you paid for.

How is this his friend's fault? It was another guy in the dealership that put it out there for 5 days. Also was it in the passenger seat when you dropped it off? I would have left something like that in the trunk an told whoever was working on it to put it back in the trunk.

Mainly for security purposes but that would have saved you from a melted laptop.

Let me get this straight. You left a laptop in a car when it went to a dealership and to a paintshop? Man you are a trusting soul. I also suppose you don't use it that often.

No guys you got all worng is only the LCD cover plate not the whole laptop I take it apart before giving it to him.

I don't agree with what u just said, that has been one of the best laptop that I have even own, their customer service is great.
I own an Alienware notebook it cost me over 4k and it was on service all the time because over heating, this notebook I had it for the last 2 years and is just great just been in service twice because I drop it, too bad that is out of warranty now
