19095, Is anyone friends with anyone from ERT?
Posted by dmt111701, Dec-14-06 04:07 PM
I am trying to get in touch with someone from there. I paid for my LSD when they had the group buy. (that was $350 in the beginng of August) Then they asked for an additional $70 at the end of october. because the ggroup buy had been cancelled. So I sent that. I still have not been contacted by anyone from there. I really need some help from someone. Terry took my diff to them around the first of November. HELP! I feel like im getting ripped off. Thanks Don

Hrm. This sucks.

Just a note, Verify the speedo gear on the diff is tightly secured before you install it. I only bring it up because I didn't check mine. :(

I'm going to try to give them another 2 weeks. I hope I get some type of response. Or It might be time for a road trip. $420 is a nice chuck of change to lose.

Yes it is. I figure I will do the same 2 weeks from now.

Rumor has it the shop closed down. ERT is back at Steve's house where they started origionally. Granted, Steve's wife just got pregnant, but this is uncalled for. Good luck guys.

I suggest at this point you look into legal action if you want to get your money back if you are still unable to get a hold of anybody. As you can see you are not alone at all in this. A lot of people have been taken for a lot more money than you.

Once again someone creates a performance company and has the potential to become something large and they allow it to go to shit instead.

Wow.. I can't believe all that I read on there. I haven't talked to steve in a year or more. I had no idea all that was happening.. Sorry to all you guys that are getting screwed. I had always recommended their business over the years because of the great customer service I got with them. Hell one nite steve, mike, and myself slept in the shop to finish working on my trans, after driving all over Chicago to get the right parts. They are all great people, trust me, I know them. I guess they are ust not in the best position to conduct a business at this point.

I was just checking Micheal_RS to see if he has been on line lately and I see he was just on, on the 8th. I think it fucked up that he still has the balls to use this sight knowing people on this sight were ripped off. Anyone involved with ERT needs to be banded. They delayed shipping so long you cant even file a complaint with paypal or credit card company.

You aren't getting your shit. You need to get a case going on against him so either he'll pony up what he owes or the AG will charge him and make him pay monthly restitution back to you.

Never wait 6+ months to get anything. You should have had your credit card company involved a long time ago.

FILING A CONSUMER COMPLAINT

If you’ve been victimized by fraud, deception, or unfair methods of competition, the Consumer Protection Division of the Illinois Attorney General’s office may be able to help. Although our attorneys cannot represent an individual in a lawsuit, our limited mediation program can assist in resolving disputes or complaints filed by individual consumers. Promptness in making a complaint decreases the likelihood that a fly-by-night operator will move, leave town, or go out of business before consumers can gain assistance.

For your convenience, the Office of the Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan has posted downloadable complaint forms on our Web site. These forms may be downloaded and returned by regular mail to the appropriate bureau within the Office of the Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan. To ensure that your form is processed efficiently, carefully review the form you have downloaded, supply all information requested, and include supporting documentation. The Attorney General's Office does not require that you provide your Social Security Number or information as to your citizenship status in order to file a consumer complaint.

The information you submit will be used by attorneys, investigators, and other members of the Attorney General’s staff involved in carrying out the functions, programs, and responsibilities of the Illinois Attorney General.

It is important that your consumer complaint is complete and that you provide copies of any supporting documentation to this office. We will send your complaint to the party with which you have a dispute unless you advise this office not to do so. This information may also be shared with other governmental enforcement agencies responsible for consumer protection and other laws.

Complaint forms are public records, which are subject to the Freedom of Information Act just like other public records. If we receive a request for copies of records that include your complaint, we may be required to provide a copy of your complaint to the requestor. Information that would reveal your identity as a complainant is, however, exempt from disclosure and will be deleted from copies that we provide, allowing the requestor to read your complaint without compromising your privacy.

EDIT:
If I were you, I'd do whatever it takes to have this Matt character ship you your diff back. LSD or not. At least you'll be able to drive your car. Then you can focus on getting your cash back from the business.

It's despicable that those seasoned guys are letting this intern kid be the scape goat on this. No matter how pissed you might be, remember that this guy is the ONLY person associated with ERT who is trying to do anything for you.

Just my .o2.

Sucks that they took this path. I think I speak for everyone over here who was around when they came on the scene when I say we were all pretty excited to finally have a serious vendor available. (sigh)

Where's Punishment Racing with their 420A stuff? (It's coming.)

Yea, this is incredible. Sorry to all you guys that are involved. And to think I have recommended ERT in the past to people as a good shop.
