Good evening, I had the misfortune of taking my car to get some new tyres today, the garage (a national chain) have managed to dent the drivers side sill at both the front and back, quite an achievement I thought, still the silver lining I suppose is that that the passenger side seems to have escaped any damage. Needless to say they are denying it was caused by them, but it’s the first time it has been jacked up in my ownership and after examining the photos of when I bought it the sill is quite clearly damage free in these.
I will have to get something done because the paint has been damaged and I don’t want to leave bare metal exposed. Just wondered if anyone knew:
a) is a damaged sill an MOT failure?
b) can a sill dent be pulled out or would it need a new sill?
I’ve attached some photos, the bigger dent is the one at the front.
