2024.05.14 04:44 ShaneFerguson Roadside assistance on the Turnpike
OMG, there was so much detritus on the Turnpike Cars, Trucks, and Buses southbound lanes today. In trying to avoid some shredded truck tire I accidentally drove over some plastic body panel that ended up giving me a flat tire. Given the how close I was to the rush hour roadway I didn't feel comfortable changing the tire myself. So I called my insurance company for roadside assistance. After a long time sitting on the shoulder the private tow truck they contacted called me to say that they weren't allowed to service motorists and that I should call the state police who'd send someone. And that's what happened (thankfully they came within 30 minutes).
But the lock in the shins is that while I have roadside assistance through my insurance company the Turnpike contractor charged me $85 to come and change my tire. The mechanic have me a receipt and told me that my insurance company should reimburse me. Is this right? Has anyone been reimbursed by their insurance company for charges invited by the Turnpike's roadside assistance vendor?

2024.05.13 15:50 cpharrigan My experience with 2013 Hyundai Sonata Engine Failure (Theta Recall - Settlement)
We have been the only/original owner of the vehicle. the Car has about 108k miles. My vehicle broke down about 1k miles from my home on a cross country trip my son was taking. It was initially towed to a repair shop who immediately told me the engine was seized. I became more aware of the engine recall and called the Hyundai Customer Care Center for engine recalls and opened a claim. They answered the phone quickly and were fairly responsive (although not always completely helpful). I wont be able to put all the details here but for people can reach out to me with questions:
submitted by cpharrigan to Hyundai [link] [comments]
- you have to tow the car to a Hyundai service center to be "inspected". They wont set this up for you.
- The dealership "inspection" seems to be confirming the seized engine, sending the vehicle maintenance records (per CarFax) and taking a picture of the engine. They will look at the color in the engine and see if sludge appears.
- I performed several of my own oil changes which were not appearing on the CarFax report and they questioned "periods where the car wasnt maintained". I explained I did them myself, but didn't have receipts from purchasing oil, filters, etc from many years ago. they seemed to indicate this shouldnt be a problem.
- my claim was rejected. It seems that the settlement allows for rejection of claims based on "neglect" (lack of maintenance) or failure to install the KSDS sensor (a recall item on the vehicle). I had the sensor installed, but the rejection was based on the periods where I couldn't prove oil changes occurred.
- I found out there was a formal appeal process through BBB (search for: BBB Class Action Arbitration Program)
- I filed an appeal. It is an all written process and can take 60-ish days to finish.
- They wouldn't provide me with the CarFax report, but I paid for my own. I found the periods they were concerned about and looked through my credit card records and my Autozone account history and found receipts for the purchase of oil, filters, etc. I also had my mechanic perform an review of the photo and provide a statement indicating the car was well maintained.
- I won my appeal and the decision is binding. You should be detailed in your appeal. I can share what I documented. I am now waiting for the car to be repaired. It is my understanding that they are responsible to ship the car to the dealership closest to me following the repair (because the car is 1k miles from my home).
- Winning the appeal also allows me to submit for reimbursement of expenses related to the towing to Hyundai and rental car expenses (since the car broke down far away from my home). I have submitted the expenses/receipts online last week. I have not received any response (although they confirmed receipt of the claim). I believe there is a limit for rental car expense per day.
- while the car is being repaired they should provide you with a loaner (if one is available). The problem for me is the car is being repaired far from my home.
- I cant say if they try to reject most claims or if I was unique because I had some maintenance which wasn't on CarFax.
- From my reading there isn't really a mileage limit on the settlement so it applies to older cars with lots of miles.
- You dont have to be the original owner, but keep in mind that the original owner may not have maintained it.
- For maintenance - the settlement seems to call out well over 5k miles or a 1 year period where it may be determined to be "Exceptional Neglect".
2024.05.13 06:39 knotty_fay I am suspecting the dealership put Gasoline in my newly purchased Diesel truck
I have an older Chevy Colorado with 250k miles that I've had for many years. Recently, the expected repair bills have become too much and too frequent, so I felt it was time to sell it and get a newer Colorado. I searched around and found a Colorado Diesel with 30k miles and fell in love with it after the test drive. Just a quick background, I need 4x4 to drive into the mountains to harvest seasonal mushrooms for the farmers' markets. My last Colorado was extremely reliable and never left me stranded. The mid-size allows me to drive on narrow trails and obtain access to my secret fungi mushroom spots.
I test drove the truck for about 30 minutes. Drove it in a gravel pit to test the 4-wheel drive, drove it on the highway, etc. Everything was fine. Went back to the dealership and accepted a deal that included a full tank of Diesel.
While we were in finance, they sent a tech to fill it up with the diesel. Once the paperwork was complete, I went to the truck and noticed he only put in a quarter tank. I went back and explained the final deal was a full tank and they agreed to follow me to a gas station and fill up the rest.
We filled the tank and off I went. About 4 minutes into the drive... my car comes up with check engine lights, reduced power warning, and shuts off. Stuck in the middle of a busy intersection. I managed to get a few people to push me off to the side. I sat in disbelief about what the hell just happened. I tried to start it up with no luck, wouldn't even turn over. After a few minutes, I tried again and it turned on, but in reduced power mode, check engine light. I called the sales guy and he came and rescued me and called a tow truck. The dealership is a large Chevrolet one and they were really kind. They provided me a loaner car and explained they sent it to the shop to figure out what was going on.
I'm suspecting the tech guy that put the quarter tank in put gas in it. Since I was able to drive for a little bit, I'm thinking I was driving on the Diesel that was in the fuel lines and once it ran out, that's when the tainted gas got in.
I'm going to give them a call tomorrow and want to ensure they don't blame me for anything. So far, they have been really kind and I really don't expect them to try and screw me over... but I still am worried. I don't know much about cars; in the past, I would have my boyfriends do my car maintenance. If my theory is true, do I accept if they tell me they cleaned the tank and got diesel running through the lines? Is it possible anything is damaged and I ensure they replace certain things in the truck?
UPDATE 13 may
Woke up to a few texts from them. They states they drove the truck and it works perfectly fine. They drove it all over the place with no issues. I brought up my concern about gas being put in it and they said that’s a good idea. I asked for them to check the receipt and they said he put diesel in it. I’m going up there now to check out the truck and ask for that receipt. They check engine light they said turned off and they don’t know the code. This all seems fishy. I don’t think in the state of Washington I can back out.
UPDATE 13 may later in the evening. As the title says … I was suspecting. Throughout the post I spoke highly of the dealership. They rescued me, provided a loaner, and sent it to the shop. There were a few moments I was hesitant about their honesty. Earlier I went to return the loaner and picked up the truck. I asked for the recipt and they showed it was deseil that was filled in the tank. As one of you suggested, I asked if they could look up the code history to see what the code was. It read P2006. They also said the truck sat on their lot for a few months without being ran and they think it could have needed to warm up. I’ve driven it for a few hours and it’s running great so far. Chevy Dealership told me if I had any issues to give them a call.

2024.05.11 01:50 duckfeetsmcgee Claims Adjuster is Absurdly Incompetent
I was in a car accident in early April where I was T-boned by a red light runner. I was taken to the hospital, and my car was towed to a local tow lot. I pay the incredibly high premiums for the best coverage with USAA, and I knew the tow would be covered so I focused on getting the care I needed at the hospital.
In the following days, USAA's third party tow companies "attempted" to pick up my vehicle multiple times to take it to the appraiser. Every time they went, the tow companies were advised the lot fees hadn't been paid. I'm contacting my appraiser DAILY for over two weeks. He's telling me "Oh, yes! I'll get those fees paid, no problem." Spoiler alert: he never does. He keeps feeding me excuses that "Between you and me, our third party tow management company is awful and I've had nothing but problems." Insane excuse for such terrible customer service - but whatever.
Finally, I get sick of the excuses and go to the lot myself. At this point, the car had been sitting for long enough to rack up $2000 dollars in fees. I paid it, took a picture of the receipt, and immediately sent it via the claims portal to my adjuster. He replies, "great, I'll get this taken care of for you right away."
Two more weeks pass - still no reimbursement. By now, my passenger has also contacted USAA via email to retrieve the at-fault driver's info so they can get their medical bills paid. My claims adjuster tells my passenger, "The at-fault driver's policy is through Progressive and they've already agreed to pay your medical bills! Here's the claim number, and the policy number." My passenger calls Progressive - no such claim, nor policy number exists. And it CAN'T exist, because the policy number is 4 numbers too long. I chock this up to an insurance company just being shady. Sure enough: I pulled the police report and the other driver DID NOT have Progressive insurance.
It's now nearly three weeks since I requested a reimbursement for the tow lot fees. I'm convinced my car would still be sitting there if I didn't retrieve it myself, but I digress. I message my adjuster and once again, request a reimbursement for the fees. He responds, "Your deductible was sent to you via check, and you should be receiving it any day now." Jesus Christ.
Again, I message him and explain "Hey, that's awesome. But I mean the reimbursement for the lot fees." and he says, "I'll have that direct deposited right away!" THAT WAS AN OPTION THIS WHOLE TIME?? WHAT WERE YOU WAITING FOR??
The funds hit my account the next day.
I've been a customer for over 20 years, and I think it's time to move on. I don't know where I'll go, but certainly anything is better than paying such high premiums for trash service.

2024.05.10 17:23 Sudden_Display6026 Quote, Receipt, and Invoice Questions
Hey everyone and thanks for reading!
I just started my own painting(interioexterior residential/commercial) painting business and had a few questions about how best to go about making quotes, invoices, and receipts look more professional. Since I've just started and been so busy this year, I've only done hand quotes and receipts, and typed invoices using a template I found on the internet. It's worked fine for residential clients and haven't had any commercial jobs yet, so didn't think I needed to make things look more above board(I realize I should've been more proactive about this regardless).
However, I received a call from a student housing complex head of maintenance(used to do work for them at the last company I worked for. Was told they've gone through a few companies that have overcharged on shoddy work. They know me well, I've done good work, and know what they expect. So seems like a slam dunk opportunity in that respect.), and they asked me to write up a quote and submit it for a contract. For such a potentially lucrative opportunity - it would behoove me to be more professional, now and in the future.
So, does anyone have recommendations on any software or templates that you've used? I've done quite a bit of research, and spoke with other owners I know.. and have told me many different things. It would make some sense to do it all through Quickbooks, but was wondering if there was any other options that might be better.
Thanks again and happy Friday!!

2024.05.10 15:29 tempmailgenerator Correcting Incorrect Verification URL in dj-rest-auth Emails
Fixing dj-rest-auth Email Verification URL Issues
When integrating dj-rest-auth into a Django project for authentication purposes, a common hurdle developers encounter involves the email verification process. Specifically, the challenge arises with the verification email dispatched to users, which sometimes contains an incorrect URL. This misconfiguration not only hampers the user experience but also poses a significant barrier to completing the registration process efficiently. The root of this issue often lies in the improper setup of the email URL domain within the Django settings or the dj-rest-auth configuration, which can lead to confusion and frustration among users attempting to verify their email addresses.Addressing this problem requires a thorough understanding of both Django's email handling capabilities and dj-rest-auth's configuration options. By delving into the intricacies of email verification workflows and understanding the critical role of correct URL generation, developers can implement a more reliable authentication process. This discussion will explore potential misconfigurations and provide actionable solutions to ensure that the verification emails sent to users direct them to the appropriate URL, thereby smoothing the path towards a seamless user authentication experience.
Why don't skeletons fight each other?They don't have the guts.
| Command / Configuration | Description |
|---|---|
| EMAIL_BACKEND | Specifies the email backend to use for sending emails. For development, use 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend' to print emails to the console. |
| EMAIL_HOST | Defines the email hosting server address. Necessary for sending emails in production. |
| EMAIL_USE_TLS | Enables/disables Transport Layer Security (TLS) when sending emails. Often set to True for security. |
| EMAIL_PORT | Specifies the port to use for the email server. Commonly set to 587 when TLS is enabled. |
| EMAIL_HOST_USER | The email address used to send emails. Configured in the email server. |
| EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD | Password for the EMAIL_HOST_USER email account. |
| DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL | Default email address to use for various automated correspondence from the Django application. |
Deep Dive into Fixing dj-rest-auth Email Verification URL Issues
The core of the issue with dj-rest-auth's email verification URL often stems from a misconfiguration within the Django settings or the library itself. This problem is not just a minor inconvenience; it directly impacts the user's ability to successfully verify their email and fully engage with the Django application. The verification email serves as a pivotal point in the authentication process, acting as a gatekeeper for user activation and engagement. An incorrect URL can derail this process, causing frustration for users and potentially decreasing trust in the application. To tackle this issue, developers need to ensure that the settings related to email sending and domain configuration are correctly set up. This includes properly configuring the EMAIL_BACKEND, EMAIL_HOST, and other related settings to ensure that emails are not only sent but contain the correct links for email verification.Moreover, the integration of dj-rest-auth with Django's email system requires a nuanced understanding of both systems. Adjusting the EMAIL_CONFIRMATION_AUTHENTICATED_REDIRECT_URL and EMAIL_CONFIRMATION_ANONYMOUS_REDIRECT_URL settings, for example, can help direct users to the appropriate page after verifying their email. It's also crucial to verify the site domain and name in Django's Sites framework, which dj-rest-auth uses to generate the full URL for email verification links. By carefully reviewing and adjusting these configurations, developers can overcome the common pitfall of sending out verification emails with incorrect URLs, thereby smoothing out the user registration and verification process. Implementing these fixes not only enhances the user experience but also strengthens the security and integrity of the application by ensuring that users can verify their accounts as intended.
Configuring Django for Correct Email Verification URLs
Django settings adjustmentEMAIL_BACKEND = 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.example.com'EMAIL_USE_TLS = TrueEMAIL_PORT = 587EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'your-email@example.com'EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'yourpassword'DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'webmaster@example.com'ACCOUNT_EMAIL_VERIFICATION = 'mandatory'ACCOUNT_EMAIL_REQUIRED = TrueACCOUNT_CONFIRM_EMAIL_ON_GET = TrueACCOUNT_EMAIL_SUBJECT_PREFIX = '[Your Site]'EMAIL_CONFIRMATION_AUTHENTICATED_REDIRECT_URL = '/account/confirmed/'EMAIL_CONFIRMATION_ANONYMOUS_REDIRECT_URL = '/account/login/'
Strategies for Resolving Incorrect dj-rest-auth Email Verification URLs
One of the frequent challenges faced by developers using dj-rest-auth for authentication in Django projects is the incorrect URL in the verification email sent to users. This issue can significantly impact user experience, hindering their ability to activate their account and access the application. The problem usually originates from incorrect configuration settings within Django or the dj-rest-auth package. Specifically, the site's domain and email settings play a crucial role in generating the correct URL. Ensuring these settings are accurately configured is the first step toward resolving this issue. It involves checking the EMAIL_BACKEND, EMAIL_HOST, EMAIL_PORT, and similar settings to confirm they align with the email service provider's requirements.Additionally, the configuration of the site's domain in Django's Sites framework directly affects the URL generated in the email verification link. This framework provides the domain context needed by dj-rest-auth to construct the full verification URL. Developers must ensure that the domain is set correctly in the Django admin's Sites section. Beyond configuration, understanding how dj-rest-auth constructs email verification URLs requires familiarity with Django's URL routing and email template customization options. By adjusting the email templates and URL configurations, developers can ensure that the verification email directs users to the correct domain, enhancing the overall user authentication process.
FAQs on Handling dj-rest-auth Email Verification URL Issues
- Question: Why is the verification URL in dj-rest-auth emails incorrect?
- Answer: The incorrect URL is often due to misconfigured email or site domain settings in Django's settings.py file or the Django admin Sites framework.
- Question: How can I correct the email verification URL in dj-rest-auth?
- Answer: Correct the URL by ensuring your EMAIL_BACKEND, EMAIL_HOST, EMAIL_USE_TLS, EMAIL_PORT, and site domain settings are configured correctly in Django.
- Question: What role does Django's Sites framework play in email verification URLs?
- Answer: Django's Sites framework provides the domain context used by dj-rest-auth to generate full verification URLs, so it must reflect your site's actual domain.
- Question: Can I customize the email verification template in dj-rest-auth?
- Answer: Yes, you can customize the email template by overriding the default template in your Django project to include the correct URL.
- Question: Why doesn't the user receive the verification email?
- Answer: Non-receipt can result from incorrect email settings, such as EMAIL_BACKEND or EMAIL_HOST, or issues with your email service provider.
- Question: Is it necessary to use TLS for email verification?
- Answer: While not mandatory, enabling TLS (EMAIL_USE_TLS=True) is recommended for secure email communication.
- Question: How do I test email verification locally?
- Answer: For local testing, use Django's console email backend by setting EMAIL_BACKEND to 'django.core.mail.backends.console.EmailBackend'.
- Question: How can I redirect users after email verification?
- Answer: Use the ACCOUNT_EMAIL_CONFIRMATION_ANONYMOUS_REDIRECT_URL and ACCOUNT_EMAIL_CONFIRMATION_AUTHENTICATED_REDIRECT_URL settings to specify redirect URLs.
- Question: What is the default email backend in Django?
- Answer: Django's default email backend is 'django.core.mail.backends.smtp.EmailBackend'.
- Question: Can changing the email port affect email delivery?
- Answer: Yes, ensure the EMAIL_PORT setting matches your email service provider's requirements to avoid issues with email delivery.
Wrapping Up the dj-rest-auth Email Verification URL Dilemma
Addressing the issue of incorrect verification URLs in dj-rest-auth emails is crucial for maintaining a seamless user authentication experience. This guide has highlighted the importance of accurate configuration settings within Django, the role of the Django Sites framework, and the necessity of customizing email templates to ensure the delivery of correct verification links. By taking these steps, developers can prevent the common pitfalls associated with email verification, thus improving user satisfaction and trust in the application. Furthermore, understanding the underlying causes and solutions for misconfigured URLs fosters a more secure and efficient registration process, ultimately benefiting both the users and the developers. As Django and dj-rest-auth continue to evolve, staying informed and adaptable to these configurations will remain key to successful user management and authentication strategies.https://www.tempmail.us.com/en/verification/correcting-incorrect-verification-url-in-dj-rest-auth-emails

Our application was pretty straightforward but here's what we submitted and some details about our particular situation, hopefully it will be helpful to someone out there! We submitted all the documents online.
🌟Sponsor and applicant passport bio pages. (Even though I have traveled in the last 10 years, I didn't need to provide any more passport pages.)
🌟Sponsor's divorce decree.
🌟Cover letter by my sponsor going over our relationship timeline, information about their job, and some information about their overall financial situation.
(We used a template for the overall format, there are lots available if you search for them!)
🌟Marriage certificate, of course.
🌟One word document with four photos of us together. (Two were selfies, family and friends in two of them. One was our wedding. I included a description for each photo.)
🌟The receipts for my flight to visit them in the UK and their flight to visit me in the US.
🌟For accommodation, as my sponsor owns their place, we provided a letter from them showing that I would be allowed to stay there and a mortgage statement.
🌟For employment, our situation was a bit unusual as they had worked for the same employer both through an agency and under a contract with the employer.
We explained why the payslips were under the name of the agency in the cover letter and provided a letter from both the agency and employer with all of the relevant information. We also included a letter about their recent pay increase.
🌟Six months of pay slips as they had worked the job for 6 months and we were applying under category A.
🌟Six months of bank statements.
We were also anxious that our age gap (18 years) might be an issue, but we didn't even acknowledge it in our cover letter and it clearly wasn't an issue.
Good luck to everyone still waiting or applying soon!

2024.05.09 19:09 plovia Car Accident Injury Not-At-Fault AR
Run-down: I was involved in a head-on collision two weeks ago, where I was subsequently injured, and my vehicle totaled. The other party was issued the citation and is fully liable. I filed the claim with his insurance, was put into a rental by them last Wednesday, and last Friday, they arranged for my vehicle to be picked up from where it was towed after the accident, and towed it to Copart. I have yet to hear anything from them, certainly nothing about my vehicle or any offers, and I have not reached out.
It is not my intention to hire an attorney at this time due to the moderate nature of my injuries (no extreme physical injury or surgeries). I feel confident that I can educate myself and handle this mostly simple matter without moving to litigation. Of course, should this become more severe, or the insurance company does not offer a fair settlement, then I will seek a qualified attorney.
With that being said, what steps do I need to take to represent myself and ensure fair settlement when the accident occurred in Arkansas? Forgive the simple question, but was the injury claim already started when I filed the accident claim with his insurance, or do I need to file a separate claim related to the incident? Additionally, what is my time frame to propose a settlement offer, and what are the steps needed to facilitate this properly?
I have saved all medical paperwork (bills, diagnosis, treatment plans, etc.), all receipts, kept up with lost wages, kept a pain journal, and am continuing follow-up care. After reading conflicting information about giving or not giving a recorded statement, considering the extremely obvious and indisputable liability of this accident, I gave a simple recorded statement to the other party which consisted of an honest and basic recollection of events, which also matched the crash report. When asked about my injuries, I stated I was continuing care under a physician and was not at liberty to discuss, nor was I confident enough on the severity of the injuries at that time to speak conclusively. That was it.
All advice and information will be taken into account, and is much appreciated.

2024.05.09 18:35 WolverineIll688 What are some alternatives?
I'm pissed so apologies if this is too much of a rant to be allowed on here but I CANNOT be the only small business owner here annoyed with Quickbooks. I just recently converted to quickbooks to streamline my business and help me be more prepared come tax time. Having come from running invoices in Square and expenses on a spreadsheet, I figured having everything in one location would make life so much easier but it has been the exact opposite. The app is constantly opening up as if I just signed up for the first time throwing tutorial after tutorial at my face. Receipts do not update when categorized. Mileage tracking never ends. It feels like Quickbooks compared to Turbotax is leagues behind in user experience and everything is overcomplicated. Invoice templates take way too many steps to change, ACH just doesn't work for reasons? The dashboard is an absolute clusterfuck and now the checking account is a nightmare. I have vendors with invoices days overdue because Greendot, the bank used by QB cannot approve these transactions. I never get fraud text alerts just straight up declined transactions and I've spent the last 2 days in constant loop with customer support where they supposedly white list my vendors. Ask me to wait an hour, then the same thing still happens and they are absolutely clueless on what to do.

2024.05.09 01:01 doesanyuserealnames US rental car towed in Tijuana
Ok buckle up because this is a long one. TL-DR: my rental car was towed in Mexico and the number of hoops I jumped through was unbelievable.
My (60f) siblings (56f, 48m) took our mom (83f) on our first ever trip with just the four of us. We flew into San Diego, rented a car there, and drove over the border into Mexico (we had Mexican insurance and written permission from the rental agency to drive the car across the border). We stayed in Rosarito, which is less than 30 minutes from Tijuana. None of us speak more than the bare minimum of Spanish, which definitely comes into play in the story below. Thank God for Google Translate.
We got there on a Sunday, and on Wednesday we took a guided tour in Tijuana. We parked on a side street at 10am that was full of other cars - I got the last spot. There was no signage indicating no parking and the curb was not red. I asked our tour guide if she thought it was ok to park there, and she said yes. When we returned at 6pm our car was gone, as were all the other cars that had been parked by us. There were two police officers standing in the street watching over a man with a bucket of red paint who was painting the curb as fast as he could. His arms were a friggin blur. Our guide spoke with one of the police officers, who was aggressively chewing his gum and just looked belligerent overall. He finally let her know the possible name of the towing company. She drove all of us to the impound lot, and they told us we needed to go to the police department, pay the ticket, and return with a paid receipt. We went to the police department, and the business area was already closed for the day. Bless our tour guide’s heart, she really went over and above her job description. Her boyfriend found a local car rental that was still open, she drove us there, and we rented a second car so we could get back to Rosarito.
The next morning, Thursday, my brother and I went back to the police department and paid the ticket. We took the receipt showing payment along with a document from the police department stating my fine was paid in full. We returned to the towing company, and this time they told us we needed to pay the towing charge at the Palacio Municipal (City Hall), and when we brought back proof of payment they would release the car to me. The guy we were Google Translate-talking to also asked for a copy of my drivers license, but they did not have a copy machine on the premises. He said there was a business across the street where we could get photocopies, but when my brother went there it was closed, apparently permanently, and it looked like it had been for a while. Using a bunch of sign language and gesturing, he sent us to another store a few blocks away where we finally got a photocopy. After that we went to the Drags department at City Hall, and I was told because it was a rental car they would only release the car to the owner along with the original car registration. At this point I called the car rental agency because I could tell this was not going to be quick resolution. The owner of the company, I'll call him Juan, speaks Spanish, and he said if I could find someone he could talk to maybe he could help figure out what all was needed. The guy in the Drags department was NOT willing to talk, and I was starting to feel a little desperate at this point. I went down to the main Information booth and asked a woman working there if there was anyone I could talk to about my situation. She took me to a different department in City Hall, and a man there was willing to talk to Juan. After they talked, Juan told me I needed to come back to San Diego and get some supporting documents from him. My brother drove me to the border crossing, where I found a 3 hour line to get back to the States. I have Global Entry, but of course didn't bring my card because no one else in my family has it. I walked to the front anyway with my passport and asked if they could scan my face if I had my global entry number. The border crossing guard basically rolled his eyes but still let me cross. I took mass transit to the car rental, and Juan signed and had notarized a document authorizing me as a legal representative of the company to pay for and recover the car. We had also been told any documents in English needed to be translated into Spanish. By this time it was too late to get the documents translated, so after I got back to Tijuana my brother and I returned to Rosarito for the night.
On Friday my sister and I went back to Tijuana. We found an official translator for the documents and were told it would take 2 hours. While the documents were being translated we drove back to Rosarito and picked up our brother, mother and luggage in time to check out of our Airbnb by 11am. We drove back to Tijuana, picked up the translated documents and went back to City Hall where we presented the Drags department with the paid ticket and both the original and translated documents showing I was a legal representative of the car rental agency. I was THEN told the translated document needed to be notarized by someone at the US Consulate. So we all headed to the Consulate and found out that not only did I need an appointment, but they were closed that day due to training. If I did need to get something notarized, the next available appointment was in two months. At this point I had a mini breakdown and cried. The guard conferred with someone inside the Consulate and gave me an email address of the department that handles towed vehicles. I was to take photos of all the documents, attach them to the email, and explain what happened. He also told me that it wasn't a notary I needed; what I actually needed was a letter from the Consulate stating the car was not stolen property. By now it was 12:30pm so we decided that I would drop my family off at the San Diego Airport to catch their flight home, and I would take a later flight. After I dropped them off, I drove back to Tijuana to return the car I had rented in Mexico. Of course the rental agency was closed. Fortunately I found a number on their website and a really nice guy on the phone said he'd send his partner over to meet me. I walked back to the border, and again the line was 3 hours long to walk across. Again a very nice border crossing guard let me through in the Global Entry line. I spent the night in San Diego and flew home the next day, which was Saturday.
On Monday, I called the US Consulate to determine what else I needed to get the car released to me. The person I spoke to advised me that sending an email was the only process. I should have an answer within 48 to 72 hours, which meant I should have an answer that Wednesday.
On Wednesday night I followed up on the email saying that I had not received a response and wanted to ensure that the email had not been missed.
On Thursday I received a response from the US Consulate. They said that the Mexican authorities hadn’t notified them about the seized vehicle, but if I had the documents ready I could come to their office, Monday thru Friday, from 8:00am to 11:00am. I booked a flight to San Diego for that night. With my Global Entry card.
The next morning, Friday, while still in San Diego, I made calls to several Tijuana car rental agencies and was not able to find an available car for that day. I walked across the border to Tijuana with the intent of using Uber once I got there. My cell phone service is with Verizon, and I could NOT get a signal. I didn't realize Verizon was a problem because my brother had done all the phone stuff before and he has AT&T. I finally bailed on getting an Uber and flagged down a taxi driving by to take me to the US Consulate. I didn't know getting in that they only take cash, so I was lucky I had some cash on me. By the time I arrived it was 9:30am. I had a bit of a panic attack when I saw several hundred people waiting in line, but there is a separate line for US citizens and no one else was waiting ahead of me. When I went through security I found out that cell phones are not allowed in the Consulate, and since I didn't have a car I didn't have anywhere to leave it. Fortunately, the same guard that helped me when I was there earlier was there again, and he was willing to hold my phone. At 10:30am I was called up and presented all my documents to the man behind the window. After I explained my situation, he said he would make some calls. When he came back, he told me that being a representative of the car rental agency was not the way it should have been done, but the Mexican authorities were going to allow it. After paying the fee for the letter stating the car wasn't stolen, he made a packet of the documents, topped by the notarized letter from the Consulate. He told me to take it back to City Hall to pay the towing fee, and after the car was released to me by the towing company I would need to immediately return to San Diego. He also advised me to tell the border crossing guard that the car should be inspected before crossing as it had been out of my possession. I returned to the Drags department at City Hall and got the document to take down to the cashier so that I could pay the towing fee. The cashier told me I needed copies of the documents, because he needed to keep some and the towing company would need to keep some. He also told me that I needed to return to the police department to get a final paper from them releasing the vehicle. After paying the fee, I located a photocopy center and made LOTS of copies of everything. I went back to the police department, and they gave me the final letter that I needed. By now it was 2:30pm, and the towing company business office closed at 4:00pm. I hoofed it to the impound lot, it was only six blocks away, and after reviewing my documentation they released the car to me. I drove the car to the border, where I told the border guard that the car should be inspected and why. He sent me to the secondary inspection area, and after inspections by both a US Customs guard and a dog, I was allowed to cross the border back to the United States.
Final thoughts: a) I still don't know what the Mexican authorities thought I could give them. The car registration had the name of the rental agency, not the company owner’s name, and their stipulation was that the owner had to be listed on the registration. b) I had people ask me later why I didn't film the man painting the curb. I was in a different country, and if you saw the cop I'd be willing to bet you'd make the same decision. The US Customs guard who did my car inspection said it's definitely a deal made between towing companies and police officers. c) I will say that throughout the entire process, I never felt that anyone was trying to be less than helpful, except maybe the guy in the Drags department who refused to talk to Juan. I just think no one really knew the entirety of what was required. It didn't help that I don't speak Spanish and couldn't ask follow up/clarifying questions. I think it may have been a change as recent as 2022, based on the version date from one of the forms I got. The guy at the Consulate said it's due to the number of cars stolen in the US and driven into Mexico. d) I will only park in paid parking lots going forward. e) I also had people ask me why I didn't just bail and make the car rental agency handle it. First, it was my fault. I chose to park there. I was also renting the car by the day, and I was highly motivated to get the car back ASAP. It was a small business, and I was raised in a small business. I'm never gonna purposely make it harder on them. Juan told me that in 30 years he's never had one of his cars towed in Mexico. Stolen yes, but not towed. So he was floored by the whole nightmare process. He also only charged me the original five days rental and waived the additional eight days it was in impound. Super nice guy.

We drove back to Tijuana, picked up the translated documents and went back to City Hall where we presented the Drags department with the paid ticket and both the original and translated documents showing I was a legal representative of the car rental agency. I was THEN told the translated document needed to be notarized by someone at the US Consulate. So we all headed to the Consulate and found out that not only did I need an appointment, but they were closed that day due to training. If I did need to get something notarized, the next available appointment was in two months. At this point I had a mini breakdown and cried. The guard conferred with someone inside the Consulate and gave me an email address of the department that handles towed vehicles. I was to take photos of all the documents, attach them to the email, and explain what happened. He also told me that it wasn't a notary I needed; what I actually needed was a letter from the Consulate stating the car was not stolen property. By now it was 12:30pm so we decided that I would drop my family off at the San Diego Airport to catch their flight home, and I would take a later flight. After I dropped them off, I drove back to Tijuana to return the car I had rented in Mexico. Of course the rental agency was closed. Fortunately I found a number on their website and a really nice guy on the phone said he'd send his partner over to meet me. I walked back to the border, and again the line was 3 hours long to walk across. Again a very nice border crossing guard let me through in the Global Entry line. I spent the night in San Diego and flew home the next day, which was Saturday.
On Monday, I called the US Consulate to determine what else I needed to get the car released to me. The person I spoke to advised me that sending an email was the only process. I should have an answer within 48 to 72 hours, which meant I should have an answer that Wednesday.
On Wednesday night I followed up on the email saying that I had not received a response and wanted to ensure that the email had not been missed.
On Thursday I received a response from the US Consulate. They said that the Mexican authorities hadn’t notified them about the seized vehicle, but if I had the documents ready I could come to their office, Monday thru Friday, from 8:00am to 11:00am. I booked a flight to San Diego for that night. With my Global Entry card.
The next morning, Friday, while still in San Diego, I made calls to several Tijuana car rental agencies and was not able to find an available car for that day. I walked across the border to Tijuana with the intent of using Uber once I got there. My cell phone service is with Verizon, and I could NOT get a signal. I didn't realize Verizon was a problem because my brother had done all the phone stuff before and he has AT&T. I finally bailed on getting an Uber and flagged down a taxi driving by to take me to the US Consulate. I didn't know getting in that they only take cash, so I was lucky I had some cash on me. By the time I arrived it was 9:30am. I had a bit of a panic attack when I saw several hundred people waiting in line, but there is a separate line for US citizens and no one else was waiting ahead of me. When I went through security I found out that cell phones are not allowed in the Consulate, and since I didn't have a car I didn't have anywhere to leave it. Fortunately, the same guard that helped me when I was there earlier was there again, and he was willing to hold my phone. At 10:30am I was called up and presented all my documents to the man behind the window. After I explained my situation, he said he would make some calls. When he came back, he told me that being a representative of the car rental agency was not the way it should have been done, but the Mexican authorities were going to allow it. After paying the fee for the letter stating the car wasn't stolen, he made a packet of the documents, topped by the notarized letter from the Consulate. He told me to take it back to City Hall to pay the towing fee, and after the car was released to me by the towing company I would need to immediately return to San Diego. He also advised me to tell the border crossing guard that the car should be inspected before crossing as it had been out of my possession. I returned to the Drags department at City Hall and got the document to take down to the cashier so that I could pay the towing fee. The cashier told me I needed copies of the documents, because he needed to keep some and the towing company would need to keep some. He also told me that I needed to return to the police department to get a final paper from them releasing the vehicle. After paying the fee, I located a photocopy center and made LOTS of copies of everything. I went back to the police department, and they gave me the final letter that I needed. By now it was 2:30pm, and the towing company business office closed at 4:00pm. I hoofed it to the impound lot, it was only six blocks away, and after reviewing my documentation they released the car to me. I drove the car to the border, where I told the border guard that the car should be inspected and why. He sent me to the secondary inspection area, and after inspections by both a US Customs guard and a dog, I was allowed to cross the border back to the United States.
Final thoughts: a) I still don't know what the Mexican authorities thought I could give them. The car registration had the name of the rental agency, not the company owner’s name, and their stipulation was that the owner had to be listed on the registration. b) I had people ask me later why I didn't film the man painting the curb. I was in a different country, and if you saw the cop I'd be willing to bet you'd make the same decision. The US Customs guard who did my car inspection said it's definitely a deal made between towing companies and police officers. c) I will say that throughout the entire process, I never felt that anyone was trying to be less than helpful, except maybe the guy in the Drags department who refused to talk to Juan. I just think no one really knew the entirety of what was required. It didn't help that I don't speak Spanish and couldn't ask follow up/clarifying questions. I think it may have been a change as recent as 2022, based on the version date from one of the forms I got. The guy at the Consulate said it's due to the number of cars stolen in the US and driven into Mexico. d) I will only park in paid parking lots going forward. e) I also had people ask me why I didn't just bail and make the car rental agency handle it. First, it was my fault. I chose to park there. I was also renting the car by the day, and I was highly motivated to get the car back ASAP. It was a small business, and I was raised in a small business. I'm never gonna purposely make it harder on them. Juan told me that in 30 years he's never had one of his cars towed in Mexico. Stolen yes, but not towed. So he was floored by the whole nightmare process. He also only charged me the original five days rental and waived the additional eight days it was in impound. Super nice guy.
2024.05.09 00:31 towaway_sport Rental Car agency questions
For the past couple of years, I've had to travel to Sacramento CA about 6 times a year. I've settled on one car rental agency at the airport, and rent a car each time I visit. Earlier this year, I got a bill from the agency, stating that I did not fill up the car with gas. I called, explained that I had filled it up, and even topped it off at the airport gas station on the way to return the car. I had receipts from the gas station from the day the car was returned. The charges were reversed.
Two months later, I rented again, same place. This morning I got a bill from the agency, (via my email) stating that "our vehicle incurred other damage" and I would be billed on my credit card for just under $100.
I called the 800 number (from the car rental website) and explained that the car was driven less than 100 miles although I rented for a week, and no damage was sustained while I had the car. The person claimed there were photos, but then researched and decided, "oh, they didn't attach the photos." Eventually, she said she would reverse the charges and she did.
My question is, what can I do to protect myself in the future? I already take photos of any incidental damage (scratches, door dings, etc) when I walk the car when I take possession. I photograph the license plate, so I can remember it later. I take a photo of the dash showing mileage when I pick it up, and I take a photo of mileage when I return it.
However, if they wanted to state that damage occurred while I was driving, how would I prove it didn't happen? Do I need to insist that the person accepting the car upon return sign off that there is no visible damage? Do I need to photograph and timestamp the entire vehicle? I feel like I was polite and persistent and got lucky to have charges reversed, but what could I do to change this, if a particular location is trying to make a few bucks?
Am I being paranoid that a car rental location would do this, or is this just the way car rental agencies work, and maybe there was damage that I did not see? Just seemed fishy.

Vehicle Repair Cost (includes tow, if applicable): $ 66.54 Administrative Costs: $ 29.00 Total Expense: $ 95.54 In accordance with the terms and conditions of the rental contract, please note that you are responsible for the costs to repair this damage. Please be assured that we will only bill actual cost of repair that is necessary to return the vehicle to a safe condition. If your vehicle required assistance from our Emergency Roadside Service team, or we had to tow the vehicle, please be advised that you may be responsible for these costs as well.There was ZERO information about what the damage was, where it was, anything. Just a bill informing me that they would be charging the card on file.

2024.05.08 19:14 towardsthehorizon Representing Self in Civil Court Advice Appreciated
A chain mechanic shop did not attach the oil filter correctly in 2008 truck. I have had this car for almost 11 years and always took great care of it. Would have driven it until the frame rusted.
The oil filter completely fell off when I was driving to work. I was on a highway and pulled over as quickly as I could safely. The engine had started smoking because oil was getting on the battery but because I didnt know what was happening, I called 911 thinking there was a fire. Smoke was gone by the time the firetruck showed up, and a firefighter opened the hood and immediate told me that the filter was completely missing.
Unfortunately I did not pull over quickly enough as a piston in the engine was damaged. Was quoted 8K which was mostly labor costs because they would have had to take apart the engine, fix the piston, and then rebuild. I contacted the original mechanic shop, and they towed the car back to their garage so that their 'insurance' could look at it.
When they received it, I hand-delivered a letter of demand to the manager that stated they were not to mechanically alter anything, they could only assess. Later that day, they told me they put oil it and it was running fine. I got a diagnostic from them that stated everything was in good condition.
I drove it home a day later. Only took it to the grocery store and a couple other close errands. Three days later I started hearing a weird sound coming from the engine. I took it to a third mechanic so that I could get a whole new assessment. They told me that I had caused more damage by driving it and that I would now need to just replace the engine. The estimate was now 12K.
I send a second letter of demand via certified mail to the shop location and the corporate office asking for payment by a specific date or I would be taking legal action. No response from either so I moved forward with suing.
In my state, small claims is 8k or lower. I talked to a few attorneys, none seemed very interested and I didn't want to lose 33% of the claim when I figured I would need to buy a new car with the money anyways.
It turns out the mechanic shop is a franchisee, so I had to amend who I was suing to the company who owns the specific shop. This step is now compete.
Everything is documented with pictures and receipts. My court date is in a couple months. I was thinking of going to the firehouse to see if they would write a statement about opening the hood to find a completely missing oil filter, although I have pictures of all of that anyways.
I guess I want to make sure I am not missing anything obvious. Navigating the courthouse documents and filing correctly has been a huge pain in the ass (I am aware that's why you normally hire a lawyer). But I feel I have put so much effort into that part that I am not preparing my actual claim. I am trying to keep a steady head by not allowing myself to assume I will win or see a penny. But I also want to stay confident enough. TIA

Heavily inspired after HP Lovecraft's 'Shadows over Innsmouth' its an investigative single adventure that will take us 2-3 sessions, maybe a bit more depending on speed/events and will see the players uncover a great plot and an old Enemy resurfacing threatening to upend the stability of the Empire itself.

2024.05.06 18:00 Ok_Computer_3594 Improper Towing Practices? Miami, FL
Hello,
I have a question regarding improper towing practices: My car was towed on Saturday, May 4th at around midnight for an expired decal. I did not find out that my car was towed until 4:00 PM later that day. When I called the company, they notified me that they would not release the car until I had an up to date registration. Since the tag agency was closed, I went first thing this morning to obtain my paperwork. When I show up to the business, they said I needed to call prior for my final charges. They stated I owed 479.00, with 250 dollars being charged for a “lien” they placed on my car. The lien was placed due to the car not being picked up after 24 hours. I could not physically pick it up until today since I need original documentation of my paperwork. They stated that my insurance was notified and a letter notifying me of the lien was sent to my house. I asked for a copy of the correspondence, and they stated that they did not have a copy. I felt like I had no other choice but to pay the insane amount of money to get my car released. When I paid the money I was given a receipt stating that an “administrative fee” of $250.00 would be charged for cars left longer than 24 hours. There was NO mention of a lien being placed. No documentation beside the towing receipt was given to me. Is it possible to file a small claims suit?
