I think what I would do is send them a registered letter, return receipt, stating all the particulars. Also tell them that since they will not inspect the vehicle, that you will have an independant shop, inspect the engine and if necessary, remove and take it apart. If the shop determines it was due to their mistake, you will contact an attorney.

would it really be worth it if a mechanic found that it was their fault? i mean they probably have a legal department for claims like this and if it goes to court and the judge rules in their favor im just out a bunch of money. sorry to be so pessimistic this whole situation has just got me really depressed. ill try to line some stuff to get it to a shop but the only person i know with a car trailer wont take his stingray out of it unless its for a show.
