ugh....again

Post by hskater26 »

well the past week or so my door has been squeaking.....i tried using some white lithium grease in the hinges but that didn't stop ittoday i figured out the real problem, someone hit my car in the front right fender pushing it back a little bit so when i opened the passenger door it would rub with the body and squeak i dont understand why people are so careless nowadays i would at least leave my name and number on the car if it happened in a parking lot. seeing how i had to pay to have my roof fixed from the poppa johns sign im most likely not fixing this one well enough of my venting heres some pictures

It comes in three's Pat... so be prepaired.But it stinks. My wifes car was side swiped as well. Mine has it's battle wounds as well.Pritty soon cars will have video cameras standard that will catch the iggest that do this type of stuff. They will have it connected to a car alarm that when it's set off it starts recording.I know i would buy that HAHA

I'm sorry, you are not having good luck with getting hit. I am surprised that you couldn't get anything out of Papa John's.

I have that same prob..but with my gas cap cover.......when i open it it creaks really bad and I have to force it open.And I can see where it is rubbing on the inside of the sheet metal.....very poor design.and I dont know how to fix it either.
