yeah service managers can be a pain in the a$$ i thought i was gonna have to slap one of the managers at fremont ford around becuase my first SVT was a lemon and had to threaten the customer service manager with calling an attorney and the news in order to get me in to a new SVT. i say sue them for all you can. time to give a little back to ford for there god awful service at there dealerships.

hopefully the "witnesses" (other ford employees) don't like the service manager and take your side in the matter...good luck.

Originally posted by Basket: I was escorted back to the dealership to get my car by a detective who also went in to talk with this service manager in the context of criminal charges. I bet his face dropped when he was told about it. I say that you have a case for yourself. I would go with charges of assault and attempted battery. This might even get some media coverage.

I would definately call a local media outlet like TV or newspaper. Tell them a story and have them confirm it through the police blotter at the station.
If he was arrested, it will be recorded on the blotter and is considered publice record. Every media organization has some low-level intern that is tasked with getting the blotter everyday anyway so it would be easy to confirm.
TV stations love this stuff and it is more effective than any BBB complaint or Ford Motor Co.
Kharma is very real and she is one mean b!tch.
