The car broke down at the pump! The girl is very stressed. I took the car to fill up with gas and got some tap water. I paid a huge repair bill of 120,000 baht. The owner of the pump is not responsible. He refused, arguing that the damages were too expensive and he could only pay 30,000 baht.

a young woman posted a plea for help from social media after going to get gas at a gas station. Apparently her car broke down at the pump and the speedometer went up warning that there was water mixed in the gas tank. When I checked the pump dispenser, I was shocked. The water comes out like tap water. A claim for compensation for damages will therefore be made to the owner of the pump. But you refused to argue that the damages were too high.

The noon news was updated on the accident, Mr. Naruecha Kamuthayothin, contacted Mr. Mix, the owner of the car, and told him that This accident occurred on April 22nd. She and her husband went to Nong Prue district. Kanchanaburi Province to see the place For a volunteer activity, she donated items to a rural school On the way back, her 4-door Ford pickup truck was almost out of gas and could only travel another 6 kilometers.

So she and her husband looked for the nearest gas station. That there is only this pump. When I delivered the car, I ordered the attendant to fill it up with B7 diesel, priced at 1,000 baht. I admit I left the engine running. After filling the tank for less than 10 minutes, the car vibrates and shudders, then shuts off. Then a warning appears on the car’s dashboard: “Water in fuel drain filter. There is water in the fuel tank and filter hose.”

She and her husband went down to ask the staff. During the inspection by the staff it emerged that other villagers were present. I also came to complain at the petrol station. Their car was damaged.

At that time, he told the staff that it could be caused by Water mixing with oil. Test it by pressing the nozzle into a bucket of water. It seems that the flow is very strong. like tap water. But what came out looked like there was no oil contaminant at all. Looking at the still image, you can see that there is a light slick of oil floating above the surface of the water.

The gas station clerk saw it and was shocked and hurriedly called. according to the pump owner When the pump owner arrived he admitted that there was indeed water in the fuel tank but he still didn’t know how it got there. He told the victim that he was willing to take responsibility. Total cost of repairs

The owner of the Ford company took out insurance and requested a forklift. The cost of the forklift was over 7,000 baht. The gas station owner said it was expensive, so they would buy a forklift around here. The price was 5,000 baht I took the car back to the center to check the price of the repair At over 120,000 baht

The gas station owner asked to negotiate the price and told him to find a cheap repair shop. that she and her husband went to look for a garage. But there is no garage that accepts repairs. Why the Ford car plant must go to a specialized center. Although there are workshops that accept replacement parts for original parts. The price is not much different. The gas station owner also said there was only 30,000 baht available. The price offered was too high.

Mrs Mix said she and her husband saw that the situation was not good so they went to record it in the diary on April 23. Next, she tries to contact the owner of the gas station. But he was calm. Police said it was a civil case, not a criminal case. The police could only invite the owner of the petrol station to provide information. They tried to contact him but the owner of the gas station said he was not available. The police said they could not put too much pressure on them.

Feeling helpless and dark So he posted on social media asking people to come help. It’s very difficult right now because it’s the first and only car in the family. Nowadays, you have to rent a car every day. Over a thousand baht a day The damaged Ford car is still parked in the center. It hasn’t been repaired yet because no one is responsible for spending 120,000 baht. Now I feel so stressed that I want to think about suicide. Therefore, I would like to ask the gas station owner to be considerate. Responsible for damages suffered

To be honest Our news team So I tried to contact gas station owner From gas station owner He said I would like to respect his right to decide why I contacted the police and if you want to know something go ask the police. Regarding the damages, he will speak to the insurance company himself. I don’t want to talk or answer anything.
