This experience has pretty much demoralized me. I had a very nice little car
which 4 previous owners had taken VERY GOOD care of. I have tried to be “the
5th” responsible owner and also treat this piece of history as it deserves.

I finally had to bring it home with one seat missing because the upholstery
shop needed their floor space (while THEY dicker with SMS over new material
to replace the junk). Every time I looked over at that empty space it made
me sick to look at the bare floor and nuts/bolts the shop left lying there
amid the ‘lint’ that collects unreachable under seats. Then at home I looked
at the seat the shop had cobbled back together with that junk material so I
could drive it home and to see the bottom ripped out on the side where the
seams had torn just from sitting ONCE, and to look at the upright back where
the shop had had to staple the side seams with cloth edging to hold the back
and sides together made me even sicker. What a disgrace!!

Monday Im hoping for some news from Automotive Accents, that they have been
able to prevail on SMS to do right by a customer. But I also fear that SMS
may well send more of the same and I will have to find another vinyl source
and pick something that WONT match the existing interior. But I just dont
have the money to do alll of it. (That will mean fighting SMS and the C.Card
company over a refund for all materials)
