No please don't handle a damaged battery without some gloves..I also looked and ebikes can be driven in the rain..I'm with u it's a defective battery hun..now get it in a box and show them. 2 year warranty. . From my brief research. Bad castings happen. .be polite but persistent. .the squeeky wheel always get oiled. Take pics in case the current condition changes. Grrr get em sunni!!

 

[sunni]

my mom just got off the phone with a seller in ottawa, he said they are the same batteries they use for jetskis and they are air tight and they cant be damaged by water so
fuck that and he would send me one for 150$ with shipping lol

 

[beuffer420]

Glad things are working in your favor now Sunni!!

 

[sunni]

not really i still have to fork out money i dont wanna spend or think i shoul dhave to pay for lol

 

[beuffer420]

Yea I hear ya there but any price break is improvement. Plus never know they may end up helping yas out when it comes time. If it's a defect I feel you shouldn't owe shite.

Sunni, Canadian Office of Consumer Affairs. They deal with warranty breaches and manipulative sales/services.

Or, "following your directions to bring the battery in, I pulled my back and burned my hand. I've contacted a lawyer, and because you explicitly told me to bring it in, he said that you're liable."

That gets them stuttering, and a lot more willing to compromise...

lol thats not really the canadian way LOL

Deceptive or misleading warranty practices.


Performance Representations not supported by testing.

Warranties, and other frequently asked consumer questions

Office of Consumer Affairs website.

If you're willing to spend a day calmly talking, in a stern voice, and aren't afraid to make a serious threat of litigation, you just might get your battery fixed for free ...

And, if there was previous electrical work done on the bike, DEMAND that YOUR independent mechanic looks over the work, and if the battery warped from heat (over-charging, poor venting after repairs or modification) than they replace the SCOOTER with a new one, that's not been damaged.

The bigger the number, the smaller that cost of a new battery looks to them. And, if your mom purchased it, and has the bill of sale or receipt of purchase, you get to bring the whole "vulnerable adult" laws into the picture...

I know it doesn't fix your scooter, but it should help.

So.......???

I didn't think it was the Canadian way to fuck over young ladies that put a lot of money into it.

And, most battery warpage is caused by extreme temperatures, normally on the hot side... And, that happens when the charging system isn't properly working.

dunno. it hasnt been in extreme heat. we aretalking it over with them hopefully they will comply. i dont have a personal mechanic to look over anything so and i dunno if any of them will know how to look at that bike i would imagine they could thanks for the links

 

[minnesmoker]

You called another ebike vendor, correct? Well... I bet they have mechanics, and would not mind stealing your business from their competitor.

The heat generated in the recharging process is internal... It doesn't have to be exposed to heat. Other things that can cause heat build-up are venting issues, improper wiring/grounding, shorts in the circuitry, or improper/mismatched impedance on the two sides of the circuit.

 

[minnesmoker]

If every consumer, or even 1/2 or 1/3 or consumers, exercised their rights under the law, businesses would be forced to follow the law. Because of "politeness" or "not wanting to cause a big issue" most people take the beating that vendors pass out..

Around here, and in my previous locale, there were/are businesses that won't deal with me, because I read my warranty before I purchase it -- in the box? Open it? Won't open it? No sale. There's a problem -- site the warranty and applicable law. No discussion, it's the law an they are obligated to follow it. I went to prison for robbing the store, why should the store get away with robbing me? (Or you! You DIDN'T rob the store!)

I have a question...
As a woman with long healthy natural nails, I get a lot of wonderful compliments on them. But most of the compliments come from men.So, my question is... How important are long nails on a woman to a man? Does it make a difference if they are natural?

 

[minnesmoker]

depends if they like getting their backs scratched up or not

 

[Indagrow]

C'mon, negro, deep down you know when they said "we'll help you out", they meant we'll help you out by charging you waaay more for the tires than you have paid anywhere else.



Soooo, 5 oil changes?




This should have been your logic about the tires. I hate dealerships. They are almost as bad as attorneys and politicians.

Hey! i resemble that remark! i mean resent.

honestly... used cars... i usually just say the car was priced with that in mind. unless it failed safety inspection your going to have to do a lot of stinkin to get anything out of them. did you go through them for the dealer price on the tires that would have been your only 'in' and snag some oil changes and a couple details or something, at the end of the day its not up to the sales person or the GSM.. its up to the GM and to think for a second he give a single fuck about you is asinine. unless your his wifes father he dosn't give a shit about what you think of him or his dealership... however he will defend and be very polite on yelp untill you get tired or retorting and he continues to get paid to do so. Its a fucked up cycle and I for one am thinking of getting out of car sales.. just one or two more 'double commissions' with some lady clients and im done i swear!

So I'm struggling with some heart isssues (why I'm not around much right now). I'm in the garage concentrating (figure it out), and suddenly, bang bang bang, on the front door!

The dog goes ape shit.... ut oh... I go look. It's a deputy. He asks if the hub can come out and play. I'm going to kill the hub unless this gets me first. Now it's time to consume mass quantities and sacrifice a virgin or something.

They're only important if she knows how to bite. Down. Hard. And french manicures are super sexy on any girl.
I've had a fakey broken off in my back, it was unpleasant. Bonus points for real ones, but fakes are fine as long as they stay attached.
Hope this helped.

Damn it, I hate it when shit makes you go from relaxed and content, to insurmountable terror in under 30 seconds. I have had that happen to me a few times in my life and it is never nice. Very few things can get you "Grade A" pissed like that will.

Hope you get back to a Zen like state asap.and hope you get better even sooner. Very Nice work on the concentration as well

Peace and Great Grows
