  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

this fool said "this car smells like _____ FORTUNE COOKIES FORTUNE COOKIES"
LMAO I'm dying laughing yall.
A guy that works at Hyundai... a Korean company.
I'm also Korean :D

I cut the video short but he was basically on the phone with his friend the entire duration of him driving my car around.

 
Sorry man. The world will always provide a source of stupid people. I didn't see many fortune cookies in Korea. Kimchee on the other hand... In any case, this person's ignorance makes the joke on him.
 
Haha idk if i should continue laughing or be offended or maybe start crying
It’s disgusting. I’m really sorry, can’t imagine how you feel. Do you know what you’re going to do with the video?

I'm honestly fine haha I live in the south. It's not that uncommon lol perhaps I should be angry lol. Honestly idk what to do with it. I was going to do nothing. Fiance (who is french) told me to report it to genesis. But idk what that will even lead to.

Of course he is showing his ignorance. Probably thought it was funny to say to his friend but certainly not professional. Is there a benefit to reporting him? Honestly, probably not. He'd probably get a reprimand at most and curse you out behind your back.

The best lesson would have been to see him after the incident and tell him you don't eat fortune cookies. That would shame him. Maybe, depending on his ignorance level

I actually did not know until I got home and saw the dashcam footage. I am going back on Monday so maybe if I see him again, I'll say something.
 
If you see him, just say cheerfully, "hi, hey I want to show you something" Could be life changing for him.
Excellent idea. It needs to be brought to this guys attention in one way or another and this seems like it would do the job.

This is an excellent idea. If you let him know that you could have shared the video with his supervisor but decided just to show it to him, he may be more willing to help you out in the future, as long as you don't make it sound as if that's what you're looking for. OTOH, if he responds inappropriately, you can always escalate.
 
Do this. Get a fortune cookie. Remove the fortune without damaging the cookie.

Replace it with a new fortune that reads “You’re fired !!”

Then...find out what he drives and either put it on his dash...or on the outside of his windshield.

Very unprofessional. Sorry you had to see that. Like EdP said above, nothing is going to happen if you complain. Probably will result in the dealership sending a memo to all at their employees to be mindful or disable dashcams while the cars are in their property. Our Subaru used to have its dashcam power removed when I picked it up from service. If you decide to complain, I'd suggest doing it to the dealership and not confront the person personally.

I don't think it matters that nothing will happen to him. If someone calls him on this, maybe he'll learn something? I mean, actions should have consequences, even if that is only a reprimand.
