I remember the thread but never knew the outcome. I guess it rarely happens that the vehicle is wrecked after a joyride. I mean the dealer put over 200 miles on my car but there isn't a scratch--that's the typical joyride.

I just read the entire story, and all I can say is 'WOW'. The most appalling part was what the owner said AFTER the case was decided. He said and I quote:

The guy that serviced my car failed multiple M car certification tests. He had been there for a few months with little experience.

ANYONE can test drive your car. Again, the guy that test drove my car new nothing about the car or normal BMW functions. I think someone already posted his officail statement on this thread as to what he said happened. It’s just ridiculous!

Another tidbit. Classic BMW in Dallas actually hired the guy (Aaron Skates) that wrecked my car within weeks of the crash. They actually knew he crashed my car when they hired him! The Service Director at Autobahn called the Service Director at Classic when he found out to verify they knew this information. It didn't matter, they kept him. Not sure why but evidently he was let go about a month later. Who can you trust?

Lessons learned...Use an indy shop if you can and always state "not authorized to test drive without me in the car" on the service slip when signing the release to do the work. Protect yourself.

I hope this case either helps someone from ever getting in this situation or helps them in getting justice.

Thank you,

The total judgment was ~$160K in favor of the plaintiff .. $100K for lawyer fees $60K for the owner.
