Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I hit a deer and the hood busted, the battery busted and the radiator busted. Rocco's collision in turnersville lied, progressive in mount laurel lied, copart in trenton or glassboro got it from a auto in sewell new jersey. These 4 places spun my car in a circle pretending to fix it, while they stole parts and pretended it was a total loss. It was less than 1000 dollars reported as $8500 in damage. I lost $17,000 and got paid $10,300....they even stole the deductible and fixed nothing.”
