- WOW... Some repair shop totally EFFED UP my girlfriend's sound system. After picking up her car up from repairs, we quickly noticed that everything in the trunk was improperly disconnected and thrown back in THE WRONG WAY!!! And on top of that, the subwoofer was now BLOWN... making all sorts of mechanical noise, with the amplifier was BADLY scratched. Also, the enclosure was missing bits of carpet, and the plastic that holds the battery handle was broken!!! Seriously? Can't even believe it...

UPDATE VIDEO: czcams.com/video/T8n04QuYgK8/video.html
Explaining The Aftermath...
czcams.com/video/T8n04QuYgK8/video.html
Why did you link the same video twice?
Didn't know it posted twice. No biggie.
@@EXOcontralto that's alright I just thought there were two separate videos about the aftermath
I wouldn't get my insurance involved because they'll end up raising your rates you need to go get a bill of what it will cost to fix everything and hand Carrie it in there to that place
EXOcontralto dude i hate to say it but you kinda should expect this from a shithole body shop. A BODY SHOP! dude. Body shops are the shadiest places...period. I know you thought about pulling it out but got lazy. Not trying to bash you Bro. Keep up the cool vids
If you ask me... turning up my stereo and blowing my speaker is kind of malicious... I mean did you need to turn up the stereo to fix the bumper? Really?
Obviously not. But that's still not malicious. Check the definition. If they cranked it to max specifically intending to destroy it, then yes, that's malicious. Short of a hidden camera of them saying "watch me blow this up on purpose", you're never going to be able to prove that.
Well "technically" it's not malicious... But it may as well be with the amount of ignorance you must posses about car stereos to do that much damage.. I mean damn.. They never intended to tell him, that's for sure..
At some point when your messing with someone's aftermarket upgrades of any kind, wouldn't you think to yourself "maybe I shouldn't do this I may break something" lol?
Right, and to the point that it was to much for it and blowing it O_O #Malicious
Jay Boley i mean i would have thoght that they would have at least put it back nicely after the intense guilt of blowing the sub, not diagonaly with pulled out wires and scratches
That cop couldn’t have a bigger dip in
Avery Ozirney could be bigger
Yea I noticed that too
Avery Ozirney I just said that 😂😂
It's called gutting. He swallowed that shit up
I just noticed out the blue one day i don't need a spit bottle and it happens
On behalf of shops I work for: we apologize for their behavior. Not all shops are like that and we feel bad that this happened to you.
This is a civil matter, you have to go to court.....
Lessons learned
@@EXOcontralto Where nothing will happen. Had a shop install new tires on my new rims and watched the guy slip when he pulled valve stem through rim and scratch clear coat, went to court, nothing. Judge sided with the shop.
Fuuuuuck... I'm pissed and it's not even my system 😂
same here
Yeah man
Lex Rodriguez me too
They took that equipment out of your car and installed it in their own for a few days. That's the real reason your repair was delayed, it wasn't lightning. They wanted to joyride a few more days while bumping your shit.
I'd bet money that the remote wire fragments still in the terminal is from their car, not yours.
Scott James dude you are so right
Scott James yup I bet ur right lol
Scott James ii
They probably had a party at their shop, or took all that shit home for a party and brought it back. Jacked up stuff.
Tell me about it, I can only imagine LOL
@@LoudStereoTINYDICK Mechanics are not trash. Well some are...some are just fed the fu** up dealing with you.
@@EXOcontralto bro wtf rip
trendy bromandolorian you must not be from Houston all the Houston mechanics are loyal to their customers !!!
That cop had like 5 pounds of dip in his lip
nzhotpepper i thought i was the only one that noticed that lmao
He was chuggin it too
I don't think he has enough dip in his lip I think he needs more
@@sandroserna6883 more!!! Yeslol
Most cops do lol
I am certified collision repair shop. they handled that all fcked up. sorry brother
Nah mate just check the place with google maps and compare it bit to bit to that walmart. It isnt the same walmart as in the video, so, sorry brother, thats the wrong Shop
TheImightyDixel I thought it was Raleigh
TheImightyDixel never mind when I searched abra it showed the Raleigh one which happens to be next to walmart too
Stuart Craig doesn't takr a professional to understand that buddy
+Assasinpiggles explain to me what exactly you think I'm trying to get across to him??/
I would droP their name if it were me bud‼️💯💨💨
@BASSN SANE it's a dropping hz and it's an good sub
I mean ruining a guys buissnes for one of his employees mistake is a bit harsh
Noah Christensen plainview
No more Aftermarket, now it is a Aftermath Sound System.
fuckkkk that man!!! i feel for you bro!! i had a similar experience LONG before the youtube days and it is fucking frustrating!! damn!!!
meade916 wow you're here lol i guess you get around
Hi have a nice day Steve's been here for years on exo,s channel.
TANDEM boii guess i don't read comments that much then
oh shitt og steve
Hey Steve ex-fan of yours here wondering why youre so disrespectful to your fans? I commented a long time ago with a compliment and you freaked out and blocked me lol anyway too bad I thought you knew how to read.
That cop has a lot of *dip* in his mouth!
dip*
chew* as in chewing tobacco.
Chris614 chew and dip are two different things chew, you literally chew. Dip you just put in your lip
you would think he could take the dip out of his mouth when he needs to communicate with someone.
hes not professional, bad fucking manners and just a straight dick head. i hate cops that do that. its basically smoking a cig and blowing smoke while we are trying to conduct buisness
When you are having major repairs on your vehicle remove any items you do not want stolen or broken. You have learned a valuable lesson here man.
I've always taken everything out of my truck before taking it to the shop except my console because it's difficult to take out. I do turn off the amp on my radio off so the subs won't play. Good steps on getting this taken care of. Hopefully no one else has this problem. Good luck exo, love your videos!
That cop can pack a lip
Colton Wiggs we have the same last name.
Aaron Wiggs Woah
Where u from
Aaron Wiggs Oklahoma
Im in florida
wait!! you had body work done in the trunk. But you left all you stuff in it?? dude common sense, take your shit out. the body shop is absolutely at fault for blowing you subs, scratches on your amp, and the ABS handle on your battery. Come on bro, you should know better.
Gooffeeman yeah they definitely took out his sub and used it in their own car for a week.
And this is why you go to A CERTIFIED DEALER
And spend like 10 grand
or just take your shit out....
DUDE, i bet they took it out and used it in there own car!!! loosers!!
Wouldn't surprise me one bit!
That's what I was thinking
@@EXOcontralto that's exactly what I was thinking, or they were gonna use it and sell it.
For sure. Real loose, looser than most. Bunch of losers
Or to tune the amp
If they don't make it right you have to drop the name bro cmon, that's what they get
zKiLLA105159 I took my truck to a body shop to get all the rust fixed and painted on my 95 dodge 2500 single cab truck. Month and a half later I picked truck up and my whole interior was tore apart and paint job was complete shit.
DON'T ENTRUST REPAIR SHOPS WITH YOUR AFTERMARKET SYSTEMS!!!!
EXOcontralto
I'm sorry Lil homie I know I'd be gettin down and fuckin they shop up at night. I know that's what I'd do.
EXOcontralto justice
EXOcontralto bring it to me next time. I've had dealerships break stuff on friends cars and claim it was like that before it showed up. one was a mirror I guess they backed the car up and hit the mirror on the lift. it was on a 2014 Camaro SS. cost him 1500 to get a new one paint matched. he did what the cop said. he called insurance they paid to fix it and then they took the dealership to court and won.
i dont let no 1 touch my my car if i cant fix it then let the shops fix it while watching them like a hawk
EXOcontralto
Alright talked to my girl she's in law school she said it's a civil matter since they didn't do it on purpose. Sorry bro
Holy crap, been a fan for years now, I'm originally from Brooklyn NY but live in NC now lol your at my local Walmart! I'd love to hear your system in person
6:11 cop has gigantic dip in
It's civil, not criminal... If they don't just step up and take care of you (most respectable businesses will)... you would have to sue them. The cop was just trying to say there was no crime. It appeared to be an accident (maybe negligence at most). If it would have been malicious or intentional it would have been destruction of property (a crime).
John Doe for there to be a crime you must have mens rea. goodluck Proving that
John Doe well do you think it was an accident they were that neglectful to the system? No one is that dumb who is competent to have a job. They purposely cut corners and were lazy, not to mention they made the decision to purposely touch something they shouldn't have, and they purposely did everything they did. All the damage. So how is that an accident. They didn't just brush against it.
Yep, the hole "Malicious" intent thing! Either your a frequent flyer or have a law background. NICE!
The actual intent of repairing his vehicle without damaging anything, isn't a malicious intent. Shit happens at mechanic shops, that's also why I don't go to them -- learn to work on your own car, and fix your own shit. Or, take your valuables out prior to service. That's a common sense.
If there is absolutely no other option than a repair shop, take your shit -- all of it out. Do not give their bad apples a reason to shine and do something stupid..
However, yeah the repair shop's employee most likely fucked up, thought he knew what we was doing and fucked up. I doubt any of his intentions were , "Oh he has nice shit, let me just go right on a fuck it all up cause he's a asshole." It's more like whoever was the person touching the equipment thought he knew enough about whatever, to mess with it without approval. I assume there is more than one mechanic at the shop.
Yeah everyone is pissed about it, I get it. I would be too. Logic dictates you should have known to take your aftermarket equipment out. And since Audio is on a different end of the spectrum, unlike performance mods because audio doesn't go hand in hand with body shop. With pretty much limited options, you're only option is to take your stuff out before going in. Any half-decent shop would advise it even if nothing happened on their watch, they don't want the responsibility if something happened.
John Doe that stereo system had literally nothing to do with fixing a bumper. blowing up the sub and wrecking the finish on the box can be considered property damage. wise man would have taken the components out before hand though.
Always take your stuff out of your car when talking it to a repair facility The Estimators will say whatever they need to in order to make the shop seem capable but the techs hate that shit me speaking as a tech
Ya real techs tho wont do anything unless the owner takes it out. And fuck bestbuy we had a car come in with a issue cause best buy drilles a screw thru the carpet panel in the trunk and it hit a comunacation device for remot entry for the car lol
Hey exo!!!! I just re-subbed to your channel. Five years ago I had my son, was a student and watching your channel was not helping my addiction to purchasing car audio stuff when I was in no position to do so. Today I was just thinking how much I missed your videos and that I needed to get subbed back in. I work graveyards as a nurse now and have a significant amount of downtime, so I will definitely be catching up on your videos. Excited to be back, definitely missed your videos. Thanks for always putting up entertaining content
So glad to have you back on board, Trey! Thanks for joining the crew again :)
Why some subwoofer box has a hole and some don’t. What happens if open a hole in my subwoofer box ? Pls help me out if you have that information ty.
bad business
boxboy50 the amplifier in that car is probably toast because they probably mistakenly hooked power and ground wires from the battery to the speaker terminals on the amplifier and now that amp is fried thanks to those idiots don't let idiots destroy your car amplifier
he called the cops instead of the insurance company? damn that must be a pretty dry town
shadowninja81500 unless you purchase additional coverage
In most cases you need to file a police report in order to file an insurance claim.
shadowninja81500 actually they do. You just need to file receipts with them when you do it. Also good to take pics so you have proof of what's installed. My truck got broke in to back in the day. Stole my high dollar cb over 500 bucks along with the amp that went with it. Also my stereo subs and amps. It was all replaced. Because I filed everything with the insurance comapny.
CchewW LOL
shadowninja81500 depends on insurance but my insurance company gave me a little extra for a slightly higher payment then again theyre a small town insurance company
I think I was there because I saw a car with a broken rear... and I was stood by the shop for some reason and then I heard very loud bass and then I smelled smoke a couple mins later... so yes... EXO was right about the mechanics having a good time...
You've got to be joking, right?!?!?
h
Same here in Florida. Dudes broke the rca inputs my amp after someone hit my front fender. First said they didn’t touch anything in the trunk then said the had to get the paint code from under the sub.
Tell me tha NAME OF THE SHOP...
Ranjan Gupta he should probably wait until after he gets a check from them
Exactly. He has to walk a fine line here. Once the check is in hand, that's a different story.
Mr Smith they probably also used speaker wire as power and ground wire and almost set that car on fire
Shit. Shouldn't be hard to find the name, but we shouldn't put it out unless EXO gets fucked by the shop. That's really unfortunate.
Ranjan Gupta right
What complete total bs man, I've worked in a few shops that this would never be acceptable, we used steering wheel covers, floor mats, brand new blue surgical gloves and booties. We also had check list how it came in and how it left. I have NO tolerance for low class shops like this.
Armedlegally You mean there are mechanics that don't get dirt and grease in your car when you get it back? I should look into this.
11:14 I've got to start feeding my girl and get her calmed down works every time🤣
Hey bro like your work wats it take to get some blue prints far a box for 4sundown sav2 for my Monte Carlo ss
I feel you, spent $800 for 2 12"s all good, paid for for a $300 amp and got a cheap ass one, used wiring paid for new, and upon install removing they broke off 2 plastics inside while installing wiring, the amp was put in a very weird place. was all done wrong, after everything was done, it was very shitty overall, when he installed it he turned the bass all the way up and had all the settings all fucked up. As I leave the place I turn it on to try it out and blow both speakers in the matter of seconds.
800 for 2 12s? Lmao you got finessed
+Mando, you don't know the brand.
Do it yourself bud. It's not hard.
it also looks like the bumper color doesn't match the car
Rob Oylers you right flakes don't match
Rob Oylers I paint cars for a living, I'm not disagreeing.. but paint will reflect different off the plastic bumper compared to the metal car body. It technically never matches
You need prepaid legal. I had this happen before. Prepaid legal made them pay for everything.
Seems a little risky considering the whole alienating friends and family part that comes along with pyramid schemes.
A thumbs up to you for taking the high road but with a big bad ouch of a thumbs down to that shop for not just owning up.
My car went in for service and my USB stick with a 1000 songs got stolen and a week later I realized that my front door speakers was stolen I'm really upset
maybe he couldn't tell for a week because he couldn't play music because his usb flash drive was stolen which contained the music
Same
I don't think you should leave any thing that could be stolen like chargers , bags , money , and other stuff that u keep on car... and I also take the face plate of my stereo off so they can't have party with my expensive Sony system!!
😂
OMG NOOOOOO USB STICK WITH *1000* SONGS WTF!?!?!?!?! I ALWAYS WANT A USB WITH 1000 DECAF SONGS
Wonder what kind of tats the cop is trying to cover up with that sleeve? Must be some bad ass tats!
oOY
Likely gang tats. FTP
are you dumb barely any cops are in gangs hes just saying that cus the dude has a mouth full of dip like a badass
No way of course that was malicious they had no buisness messing arround with your sound system unauthorized. When their job was to fix the rear bumper from an incident that happened, i do feel your pain an frustration EXO its caused a big set back. I do hope you get compensation for the malicious damage they caused you.
How many times does the cop say “know what I’m sayin?” 😂
That cop has a full can of dip in😂
LmOaoao
That officer looked like he had a lip loaded with dip haha
Automotive Guru u dont say!?
the cop was drunk..
Old video but i am curious why the volume would be able to go high enough to blow the sub? Are you supposed to have the system not send too much power even at max?
Exo I got maaaad respect for your ability to stay calm dude. I’m taking this okay from the exo play book. I’d lose my shit when that cops said “they didn’t mean to do it” I’d went to jail I guess. I’m a broke niche tho I can’t afford systems anyway so I’d been panicking if it where my system. But I’ve learned a lot watching this channel and keeping my cool is one things I’ve learned to help I’m the long run
Anytime I have to have a car worked on and have to leave it, I always pull all fuses. Those type of shops don't have a bunch of ANL's laying around. That way no one can jack with your hard work
That's actually idea!! Why didn't I think of that lol. I will be doing that in the future, if I have to drop my suv off for repairs
www.GPcarAudio.com what do you mean pull the fuses? what fuses?
Killamovz are you serious bro? You place a fuse in the gage wire going to your battery to prevent frying your amp in case something goes wrong or disconnects
or worse cooking the wire/ burning your car to the ground
I always just put a straight wire where the fuse used to be and bump the fuck out of those woofers.just kidding.but it's that simple
If I ever have any service done on my vehicle I always try to take my subs out. I don't trust anyone because of this. DTA. Cause there are assholes everywhere.
Clare Williams it was wrecked in the truck area probably wouldn't open
Clare Williams I still haven't seen anyone mention that she could have messed it up in the accident
Man!!! This would've just sent me back to prison!!!! I have a bad temper problem and I work hard to keep calm!!!!you're like the calmest person I've ever seen on CZcams....I go ape shit when sound system installs dont go my way...watching your vids helps me out alot!!!!!!
I feel you. Many years ago, my 1990 convertible white 5.0 mustang fox body had to be left in a body shop for a week for some repairs. The day i came to get it my stereo wouldn't turn on. i check my trunk where i had a custom box with two 12" Rockford Fosgate subs and Fosgate amp was all gone amp and all. I'm talking about this box was designed to permanently stay in the trunk as it was molded into the spare wheel area. and i got jacked. i complained to the owner and he said the cameras system wasn't working that week. and was still needing repair. so i told him, then obviously it was an employee if they knew it wasn't working so they had to take hours to pull it out. Long story short i had no proof when i filed a police report and lost it all...
Totalled, on fire, wrecked... I always remove my stereo system. Shops are grimy. I remember I was rear ended in my mazada millenia. Before the car was on the trailer I took out my triple 12 enclosure, and my three amplifiers. The tow truck driver said "hey you cant do that" the state trooper said "yes he can, its his stuff". I know if my system would have went to any shop in va beach it was gone. The state trooper agreed. ALWAYS TAKE YOUR SYSTEM OUT.
NinjaPorn especially in Va beach bro. They would’ve rat fucked your trunk.
I agree
It would really be interesting if it really had ninja porn...
I just moved to VA beach, this is good to know because i plan on dropping two tens (maybe a 12 too) into my truck.
Damn im in norfolk and got hit by a deer in the suffolk area.the minute i got home that night, put my 15 fi audio sub in the garage with the amp because i already knew it wasnt coming back after it goes to the shop lol
Fucked up...they didn't give a fuck. I feel you man. Nice system. You got to sue.
rbf1967
Clearly you are in preschool
Where can you buy bigger alternator's
Can anyone tell me what brand of subwoofer that is please.
i dunno if it was me and my car was going to a body shop i would have took all that shit out of the trunk!!!
Wings Fan I mean it would be a bit annoying
Phil you don't know anything stfu
DJ FOURBAR how do you know that
You know how much of a pain it is to install this shit? Yea let’s just take it out and re install it lmao
not car audio but home audio
Damn, I had an expierance kinda like that. I went to get my tires replaced and after 1hour they returned my car and my system was on full blast on some hip hop station(I don't listen to the radio) I was like "wut?" I guess they where messing with my system while changing my tires..:( iv got (4) 15's, (6) 6.5's (8) tweeters I can see how they'd be curious but damn don't destroy my sh!t. Now I remove my faceplate EVERYTIME.
iTsStEpHyyyy lol. with no videos of your setup haha. not to mention all your stolen videos with out crediting people 😂😂😂😂😂
TANDEM boii all my stolen videos?! Lmao kid, I didn't upload any videos. Your seeing things.
@TANDEM boii: It says "liked videos" you dumb piece of shit
iTsStEpHyyyy find a way to wire a switch that removes power from the accessories wire inbetween your ignition barrel and stereo but make sure it's hidden
Tommi Dancey I had something like that awhile ago. I had a toggle switch spliced in on my remote wire. It worked great for emergency shutoffs. The faceplate removal works good, thnx tho!
And this is just one reason I work on my own stuff from auto body to mechanical but learning stereo audio equipment, gotta start somewhere.
Damn man that’s wild, my w7 in the box weighs a shit load I barely fit it in the back of my corvette so getting it out would take more effort. Did you get your money though?
Damn dude, that sucks :/
My Stoner Mind it does
Red eye now
My Stoner Mind if a repair shop were to do something like that to you then maybe you should file a service complaint against the repair shop or take them to court and sue the repair shop because if a repair shop destroys people's sound systems then they need to pay for the damages
Travis Gulley its the shops fault for the damages might as well have thru a brick thru the windshield
Hey dude I know you
That cop was buzzed as fuck the whole time off that big wad of dip #yeeyee
COMO SE LLAMA LA APLICACION QUE UTILIZAS EN TU CELULAR PARA MEDIR LOS DECIBELES PORFAVOR
Damn bro that’s crazy I love your videos and never knew you were from the same city as me!!
I feel for ya Bruce. twice now on this stuff, hope you don't think "third times a charm" on this audio abuse.glad you video this and hope the shop pulls their shit together and gets you squared away. all the best to you brother!
four thumbs down must be the ppl that work at that shop lol
Sharkiesha Jr ....yup 😀😀
Liked the video in the first ten seconds 😂😂🙌🏻
Hey buddy must say big time fan but just wondering I have a 2005 Dodge Magnum what will sound great in their because I was thinking about a crossover in the front doors and also a set of horns speakers and a set of 6x9 in the back sound quality up front and all the bass in the back
ALWAYS pull the major components of my system and take the stereo face off before I take my vehicle to the shop.
DJ ArcForce my box’s always come straight out and I try to hide all wiring
wouldn't be surprised if one of the employees borrowed it for his own car,
JM53 BEL what if she messed it up in the accident?
chukob5 he said it was all fine when he dropped it off
Ruvim Sala i would say the same if I wanted a free speaker
chukob5 actually thought that myself, but if it was OK before it went in, that's if, I was meaning I wouldn't be surprised if one of them tried it in their own car, I had a skyline that I had to leave at the garage for a new windshield once only to be asked by a friend why I was driving like a twat, turned out one of the employees took it for a joyride, I mean let's face it we are putting our trust in strangers with our pride and joys, its not to say they will respect that trust or your property, but going by what he is saying the garage now it was OK and it had been mistreated by a staff member, any proper garage would not accept responsibility if they hadn't damaged it but would if they did,
+JM53 BEL lol a customer left me a V10 BMW M5 for a few weeks for some repairs. I drove that bitch like I stole it #canthaveniceshit #dontletshopshaveyourcar
Thanks for the advice Bruce, as always thanks for sharing. I hope they made it right brother, and you guys can get it all back together bassing again.
Paul Thompson Won't be getting anything fixed unfortunately lol
EXOcontralto THAT is pure bs. Dammit
What was the brand of sub you replaced in your girlfriends box after the Body Shop blew her other one.
Droppin Hz Hotel 12
Most insurance companys wont cover aftermarket hardware like Stereo systems you put in yourself.
She was rear ended and in NJ the other insurance company has to pay,not hers and in that case they have to cover ANY and ALL damages from the accident.
anytime I take my car to any shop my sub's come out and my deck ain't takin no shorts or losses...bone thugs
jason griffin yeah but not everyone is the same homie.
jason griffin i have four 73 lb 15s and a 6 battaries....what about me?
MASTERT KILLA nothing that atrocious just 2 12's in a probox but that's not the point if your a bass head it doesn't matter if you have 1 10 or 4 15's you value your ish so protect your investment
yep i got two 15's and i take my shit out...2 amps are mounted in the truck dont really care about those I just pull all my fuses to the amp and radio.....They know what the deal is when they get my shit...Completely empty only thing turns on is the motor lol
Exo I don't know why but for some reason at this particular time 9:12 you reminded me so much of Ernest.
Ernest goes to jail the movie lol
BTW I'm from Eden nc bro, not to far from you
oh wow, what a bummer! im so sorry that you two have this expieriance. but atleast you guys realy took it well, and maintained posture. i agknowlage and comend you two for your great characters! realy makes for good karma :) better luck in the futere. and thank you for sharing. bless you two. greetings from germany
I always had a weary feeling when I would bring my car to a car audio shop. After that I've always done it myself. Once I had a shop just do a simple 2 front speaker install. No crossovers just a screw-in job. I removed the door panel to see what they did and I kid you not there was ONE screw. Yes ONE screw holding the speaker in. I am no pro at all and people would say my work is probably sloppy in some cases but my shit sounds good and I could care less what anyone thinks after that experience. Never again will I go to a shop.
He went to a body shop to get his car fixed from an accident. Not a car audio shop
Damn, I think they’d slack that hard.
Unfortunately, It's a civil case... not a criminal case. I completely agree with you that this was focked up of them to tear your stuff like that because I would be pissed too... but unfortunately, like the cop said. Law enforcement can't get involved unless... someone was caught stealing your stuff or damaged it on purpose. The owner of the body shop is at fault and he has insurance on his business, if he's the sole proprietor or is under an LLC or Inc, he would have to file a claim with his own insurance for the damages his employees did to your stuff and if he refuses to pay or gives you the run around, or stalls... at least a month after he agreed to fix it, then you can file a small claim's suit at the court clerks office in that county and get a process server to serve the body shop owner for the damages, court cost, process server, and possibly a rental car for the additional days your car now will have to be fixed again if he fights you on the repairs. Just make sure to have copy's of the cops statement, receipts for your stuff, the rental car, and the body shop invoice for the repairs that were done on on your car. Paper work is very helpful to show the Judge so he can figure out the cost of your losses and give you a ball park figure on what to rule to the defendant. Or just call Judge Judy. She'll set them strait! Lol
I can not even watch this all the way through. Dude this is a civil matter.
So sorry that happened to your girlfriend’s sound system as well you did all the hard work on it
hello exo I'm a auto body tec I got my start in car audio and I'm hear to say that u are completely correct the body shop should of never touched your system when I'm working on customer cars and I come across anything aftermarket I will not touch it in less then customer is notified even though I know my way around a system i do not want the liability of messing with a another man's work
I dropped my car off to have some engine work done. When I picked it up the subs were not only blown, but unscrewed and just set back in the box.
I took them back to the shop I bought the audio equipment from. Shop owner told me not to worry about it because he can just ship them back and claim they were damaged on receipt. Gave me full credit for them, and offered to upgrade me to a higher power model that just came out for 30% off the price difference.
Total win for me
Hey brother can we get an update on this?
I'm lucky enouph to have never run into this problem but thanks exo for the information it inspires me to be more vigilant with this!
I agree, vigilance is key.This will ever happen again.
people are so fucking rude.
this is why I do everything myself
5:01 the "hi" sample girl in live today
Nothing has ever made mad from a CZcams video, but this is a whole different kind of anger, a kind of anger that you know someone fucked with your stuff and they knew it know you know it and it’s just like. Wow. I never been so fucking mad I actually have a head ache from this.
Could it have happened when getting rear ended? The subwoofer damage anyways?
No
Bro you look like Tom Hanks in the Cast Away
That officer's dip lip 😹😹💀
Cop was pretty much like, "Yeah I'm not feeling like writing up a report for this."
its been six years, so you go back and get justice
Was there a follow-up video to this incident? What was the outcome?

Why didn't you remove the stuff before it went to the body shop?
E J Probably because it took a fair bit of time and effort to set it up, and you don't expect some fuckers to trash it when taking your car to get repairs.
EPICRANDOMGUY If he wired the whole system, it should have been very easy to remove the woofer and amp. Probably 20 mins Max.
It wouldn't take more than 20 min or so to remove. And yes you should expect anything left in a car to be fucked with.
E J because it wasn't expecting that to happen....
He says in the video, he asked the guy and the guy said it wouldn't be any issue. He also asked the guy to call him if it became an issue. They totally fucked this up... Good job EXO is in a position where he can share the news and at least get some folks backing him. Most people just get ripped off and nothing gets done about it.
That dip though😂😂
Also: subafar 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What kind of nvx amp is that
How do you know that it didn't get damaged from the wreck also?
You don't get a blown or detached voice coil in an accident. You get that by playing at really loud volume with the trunk lid open...
Nick Malvasi actually... my sister was in an accident. she was hit hard in the front end of her car and ended up ripping the magnet right off of her sub
Nick Malvasi So you are saying that it is impossible for a wreck to detach a voice coil from the sudden impact?
Nick Little ripping a voice coils that is VERY durable and breaking a MAGNET are 2 different things. One is meant to move a SHIT load and the other none.
Nick Little I don't think that's possible. It must of been cheep because expensive ones will be way to secure for the magnet to detach
Always take your gear out of your car when taking it for extended work my dude.
What model is that subwwofer
Cop had a HOG in. 😂
