ok, so i rented a u-haul trailer to tow a vehicle a few mile and the guy at the shop put it on and said i was good to go. i got to the vehicle, parked in the street and lowered the ramps and proceeded to load the car...thats when everything went haywire!
the couple was not tightened down and the axels on the trailer acted as a pivot point for the tounge to become airborne when i started to pull the car on. so i eased it off, but the tounge scraped the liftgate on the way to labnding on my bumper and breaking my liscense plate frame!

so i called the manager and he said to bring it back in so he could look at it...by the time i got the trailer back on the hitch (and secured!) he waqs gone for the day. so, now i have to deal with getting an estimate and filing a claim with their ins company and have to borrow a car for a week or so sibnce i am too young to rent! i'll never rent a u-haul again!
anybody elsehave problems with them? or know what it'll cost to have my liftgate fixed?
