[Focus man. Focus.]

Well Friday on my way home I noticed a leak in the passenger footwell and the windows started fogging up as well as the blower motor started whining. S#!t I thought. There goes the heater core. I turned off the heat and the leak stopped. Confirming what I thought was the heater core. Well I took it into the dealer this morning for them to have a look at it and have it repaired under my extended warranty and...

Well it wasn't the heater core. The trim under the passenger wiper that covers the cabin air filter had somehow become deformed or something (according to the service advisor) and needed to be replaced. So They are covering the blower motor, wiring harness, and resistors under my tri-care warranty. But the trim piece isn't. So I have to pay something like $200. to have it replaced.

But now that I am thinking about it. I didn't notice any leak before my accident and the repair that the body shop did wasn't up to par and I am taking it back tomorrow to have the fenders, hood, and front bumper re-painted and aligned properly. I am going to take them the bill and let them know about the problems I had following their shotty repair work. I have also called and left a message at my insurance company about the poor workmanship on the repair work done previous to the problems this weekend as well as the current problems I am having.

What do you guys think? Where do you think I stand with having this reimbursed from the insurance claim?
