New car with paint damage on front bumper by Dealer before acceptance what to do?
Hey all,
So last night I went into the local dealer where we got our SRX from as they were having what I thought was a really good deal on a Silver Coast Luxury ATS with the 18" wheels, black interior, and cold weather package, a combo I was looking for as all their other sale cars had the titanium interior, however when I got to the dealer to look at the car I noticed that the front bumper right above the license plate mount was missing a nice bit of paint, right down to the black plastic...I pointed it out to the sales guy who assured me they could fix it, and I told them that I would expect this to get properly sorted out, but I signed for the car anyway and did all the financial stuff...
Wondering if I should have done something differently or if there is anything I should do to protect myself before accepting the vehicle, I have read that this kind of thing is supposedly common, cars getting damaged/repaired in transit or while stored at the dealer but didn't know what people suggest in these cases.
Thanks
