I wouldn't take that for an answer. If they lost the covers, make them pay for the replacement.
On the other hand, of course you should have noticed that they are missing when you got the car back after the swap. After the fact, they can always claim that the covers were in place when you picked up the car...

That sucks.. My dad had some shop completely shear off a stud on his wheel, they put it right back on and let him drive out of there with 3 of 4 lugs attached. They wouldn't fix it since he drove out of there and came back later. Trying to say he did it when its obvious what happened.

I know this was out of your control and that sucks, I never leave anywhere without double checking everything I can on my car. At discount tire they tried to replace my color matched hard plastic valve stem covers with rubber black ones. Never knew how good they looked until I saw the black ones on there.

monchie 01-14-2012 01:52 PM

I don't have one when i bought the car. My engine looks naked without it...lol

hmm, my engine cover has been sitting in my garage collecting dust for years ...
