Bad month!
A few weeks ago a car on the other side of the road hit something into my driver door! The damage was low on the door, but deep and through the paint.
LOVE my 8, so checked with a good body shops - $400!!!!! Wanted it right, so left my baby at the shop as I flew off to LA from Atlanta. Had all the updates, including new starter, even though I haven't had a starting problem in 2+ years and never did any special shut down. Never though to say anything to the shop. 
Now I find out the shop moved the 8 3~4 times just from inside the shop to outside without warming the engine. You all know what is now happening - it won't start and the battery is run down! What can I do from 2000+ miles away? The body shop said they will put a charger on it and just push it around the shop to fix the door. WHAT A IMAGE FOR MAZDA!
