I have a 2007 Scion tC.... Last month I was in an accident, some guy feel asleep behind the wheel and smashed into me on the driver side with a Chevy Tahoe. After a little over a month in the shop I got it back yesterday. The problem is the ABS/Brake light are both on... I took it to Toyota today and they said that the computer is saying that the driver side back tire sensor is showing no output. They replaced the sensor under warranty, but it did not resolve the issue and currently I have no ABS or EBD. I really don’t want to take it back to the body shop because on top of that my steering wheel is not aligned with the actual wheels (1 o'clock on the steering wheel position the car is going straight), my driver side power door lock doesn't work and they scratched the crap out of my interior. Any idea how to fix any of the above would be appreciated! Also this is my first post, so hopefuly I put it in the right place.

 

u fix it by returning it to the auto body shop.

 

or taking it to another body shop since that one sounds like they don't know what they are doing.

 

yeah but why pay money to the other body shop when it's not his fault? make the body shop fix your car right this time and it better be for free since it's their fault.

 

my guess is that you should take it back to the body shop that did the work, tell them what is wrong with the car and that they have to fix it. they should have repaired your car to 100% of how it was before the accident. also, if they messed up your interior, you should have told them that right away and demanded they fixed that before accepted your car back.

if they say they won't work on your car, talk to a lawyer, maybe take it to another place and have them say what the other shop did wrong and then sue the first body shop for damages for doing such a crappy job.

 

same thing happened to my buddy's car after leaving the shop, the body shop messed up the ABS.

 

go back to the body shop where you went and if they refuse to fix it... you have the receipt and paper works??? sue them...

 

Thanks for the input guys... Well, I did tell them all the stuff that was wrong with it before I drove it off the lot... The guy kept pressuring me to take it and drive it for a couple of days then bring it back when I don't need it for a while (and after I gave back the rental)... He said he has to call the insurance adjuster again and have him come out and look at the car again... I just couldn’t believe that he said that after calling me and telling me my car is "100%" ready to go... I do have a "Lifetime" warranty with them on the work they did, I'm just afraid that there going to make it worse or mess something else up... I have considered calling a lawyer because this is a brand new car with 2,300 miles on it, and it had $8,700 in damage done to it from the accident, and it looks terrible now that it's "finished", not even the paint matches right now that I see it in the sun light. I'm so mad at those people I don't even want to deal with them but if I have to - I have to...
