I'd bring up the possibility that this will get reported to CarFax. $1700 in body work might raise an eye. If it does, it will result in a loss of value on the vehicle beyond the repairs. You might ask how they will handle that loss.

Never thought about that.
I'll ask the dealer and see if they are reporting it.

Claims Dept just called. Told me there would be no compensation above the repairs and rental. 
Told them I guess I need to contact a lawyer. Also talked to the Manager of the store. He contacted Corporate and now they are entertaining a number.
But what is fair? I agree that they should pay something for my time and endangering my life and the lives of my family. But what?
I am not out to gouge anyone, just something fair.

that sound fair to me actuallu full refund for the tires and rims cant go wrong free repairs rims n tires when u think bout it only thing if it goes on carfax your resell value. if anything if the resale value does go down by a good bit have the difference in the resale added in to the compensation. to me is still to fair even for them with the lack of product knowledge, service, experience and danger lvl they could have inflicted on you and famliy

He didn't like the idea of a full refund.
But mentioned he could give me $500.

if you did purchase a protection plan i would ask to have it for free... they can afford it you know they can...

WWWTTTTFFFF!?!?!? Do not settle for $500 bucks. Get your truck fixed 100% and compensated for your time and hassle. That's it period. Have you lawyer ready on the phone to talk to the manager. NO BS !! Tell'em we mean business at the law offices of smith and hassler.
PS, just kidding about the "Tell'em.....hassler"
