It damaged frontal right side of my car my car was towed to geico direct shop quentin auto center, Inc on 06/10/14 I was present at inspection of my car by geico adjuster [xxx]. both the adjustor and repair shop owner [xxx] determined that brake system of my car has serious rupture near ABS unit right there I presented geico adjuster with original invoice of repair of the brake system by 86th street Chevrolet Saab, Inc dealer of General Motors in July of 2013 though she took copy of invoice, she never added it to my claim I explained to adjustor and shop owner that on 07/04/13 brake pedal of my car failed for first time at that time I did not have accident and my car was under most comprehensive extended warranty of General Motors gmpp. 86th street Chevrolet Saab, Inc. Dealer of GM repaired my car under warranty there is warranty that covers the repair eleven months after brake pedal failed for first time, it repeated itself drove it less than two thousand miles since then according to both geico adjustor and shop owner brake system of car, that now has serious rupture near ABS unit, was already in dangerous rusty condition during its repair by dealer of GM in July of last year; dealer improperly repaired only one of lines of brake system; the dealer would have to replace all the lines?? on 06/11/14 [xxx] contacted me and stated that brake system will not be covered and I will have to arrange with GM or its dealer to repair car on 06/12/14 geico provided me with a letter of denial to repair brake lines because inspection of my car found that the damage to brake lines was due to wear and tear, and not loss related now geico puts me liable.
