Rep Power: 233 Stupid dealer scratched up bumper when I brought in in for service!
My rear bumper was absolutely perfect until I bought it in to the dealer for warranty service. It seems they don't know how to park cars and left 2 screw head indentations (from the car behind me) on my rear bumper. I don't understand why they need to park their cars together so close!
I just discovered this (today) 2 days later after I brought it back from the dealer. It now looks like 2 dots with a "+" embedded in the paint.
Should I just clean it up a bit and put in some touch up paint or should I leave it?

Rep Power: 261 I would take it back and question them about it... If the car that they park yours next to is still there then you will be able to prove it and make thier sorry asses pay for it!

Rep Power: 295 if u take it back they're be like hey its not our problem...u didnt catch it on the day u got it back so its a waste of time to go back...that happened with my car...after our curb incident we got it towed to a honda dealership that does repairs and they quoted us too high of a price so we told them we're gonna do the repairs elsewhere...when we got the car back there was this huge dent in the passenger side fender like fist size as in some ******* at the dealership punched the fender cuz he was pissed off that he wasnt getting $3800 + commision to fix our car...(we took it to a friends shop and he did repairs on it for parts only)...anyways we tried to talk to the dealership that thats what they said..."its not our problem" so we asked to see some video footage and they said they reviewed it and saw someone walking by the car and standing near that fender but "he didnt do anything" bullshit from them...so we showed them...couple of dented fenders on lot cars would **** them off...

Rep Power: 0 I'm sure it was the dealer, the other day I picked up my car from warranty service and the f'n thing was so shoe horned into a straight line of cars, it honestly made me do a 38 point turn, seriously, my girl came by (she dropped me off) and asked what the f I was doing, there was no more than a copule inches total between the front and back of me

Those 2 marks are caused by the Civic license plate holder in the front bumper.
